PLEASE NOTE: The day/time information listed in this brochure was accurate at the time
of printing, but please double-check course times on MyWagner.
ENGLISH COURSES:
See course listings below for individual times and descriptions. Note that students declaring the
English major or minor are governed by the requirements of the English major and may not
count EN 101 or EN 110 toward the major or minor. Note, however, that non-majors who have
taken EN 110 as part of a first-year LC may take EN 110(W) to fulfill their second writingintensive (W) literature requirement.
EN 101 College English
Dr. Florescu
MW 1-2:30
The primary objective of this course is to provide students with the information and practice they
need to produce successful academic writing and to gain more confidence as writers in academic
settings. The course is divided into several sections: Personal Writing; Expository Writing:
Shaping Information; Argumentative Writing: Contending with Issues; and Connotative
Writing. They will also learn to become more aware of how they speak and use English. The
ultimate goal of the course is to improve the students’ analytical thinking and oral/public
speaking.
EN 110(W) Introduction to Literature: Contemporary American Humor
Prof. Jimenez
MW 8-9:30
MW 9:40-11:10
The theme of this introductory literature course is humor. We will be honing your skills to
analyze literature by exploring the work of several contemporary American fiction writers and
examining how each author builds humor on the page through incongruity, mistaken identity,
loss/lack of language, hyperbole, counterpoint and word play. This course will also introduce
students to the basic elements of fiction: plot, arc, character, metaphor, point of view etc. Besides
writing analytical essays, students will also have the opportunity to craft an original short story.
Assigned reading will include the work of Junot Diaz, George Saunders, Lorrie Moore, Sherman
Alexie, Sandra Cisneros, Sam Lipsyte, David Bezmozgis and Jonathan Franzen.
EN 110(W) Introduction to Literature: Driving Through Fiction: Build, Drive and
Meaning in American Literature
Prof. Shore
TTH 11:20-12:50
TTH 1-2:30
This course is devoted to analyzing the elements that make up a fully formed piece of fiction. By
examining the build, drive and meaning within short stories, novels and plays students will gain
2
a higher understanding of why a piece of fiction is fulfilled. Students will develop their writing
and analytic skills by exploring the language, style, characters and themes of each work.
FOUNDATION COURSES--OPEN TO EVERYONE, NO PREREQUISITES
All three foundation courses (EN 111, 211 and 212) are open to non-majors. Majors should
take these courses by the end of sophomore year.
EN 111(W) World Literature (I): Women’s Voices
Dr. Florescu
MW 9:40-11:10 (Honors)
MW 11:20-12:50
This course offers a unique exploration into the vastness of world literature as seen, lived, and
transposed into words from women’s perspectives. By focusing on the exclusive feminine
vantage point, students will sophisticate their understanding and reading of literature. Selectionwise, whether belonging to Africa, Central America, South America, Eastern Europe, or Asia,
this course also teaches students how to identify themes which are universally voiced out from
different geographical spaces. Consequently, students start thinking about literature as a valid
form of international “language.”
EN 111(W) World Literature (I): Introduction to Culture for the World Traveler
Dr. Hurley
MW 1-2:30*
(*first-year students only in this section)
MW 2:40-4:10
This course is designed for the student who intends to wander the world, either informally
through the desire for exploration or formally as a start to a career in business, government,
education or international service. Literature, as an important cultural asset, can be an essential
traveling companion. Accordingly, we will circumnavigate the globe through reading novels,
poems, short stories and essays from the Middle East to the Far East, to Africa, South America,
the Caribbean and just about everywhere except Antarctica (unless penguin lit is suddenly
discovered). Expect to be engaged and challenged!
EN 111(W) World Literature (I): Mapping Literature
Prof. Dahlie
TTH 9:40-11:10
Human beings rely on maps to understand our place in the world. We often turn to literature for
this same reason. And just as works of fiction or nonfiction can orient readers and offer
descriptions of places near or far, maps can tell us stories of conflict and desire. From islands in
the Pacific to rabbit holes in England, in this course we will consider how humans use works of
cartography and works of literature to help chart, navigate and create real and imagined worlds.
3
EN 111(W) World Literature (I): Short Stories and the Loneliness of Being in the World
Dr. Tommasi
TTH 2:40-4:10
The world is a lonely place, and perhaps no form of expression conveys a better sense of that
than the short story. For about a century and a half now, fiction writers, rather than only writing
comprehensive novels of human lives and societies, have also developed a form that lends
itself to representing smaller fragments of experience. These stories often communicate a
sadness, strangeness, incompleteness, or loneliness -- a sense that our place in the world is very
uncertain. We will read a selection of short stories from all over the world, taking into special
consideration how expressions of uncertainty arise from the geopolitical situation of a work's
nation of origin.
EN 211(W) British Literature Survey
Dr. Schotter
MW 9:40-11:10
This course focuses on the changing nature of the "British" literary tradition over the thousandyear period in which England moved from being a small country on the edge of Europe to the
world's dominant empire and the to a diminished post-imperial and multicultural country. We
will examine such changes by reading authors such as Chaucer, Shakespeare, Milton, Behn,
Swift, Wordsworth, Wilde, Woolf, Joyce, and Orwell.
EN212(W) Introduction to Literary Analysis and Theory
Dr. Arant
MW 2:40-4:10
This course asks what literary theory is, how it helps us think about literature and culture, and
how literature and culture help us think about it. Using texts like Hitchcock's Vertigo, Lorde's
"Royals," and Toni Morrison's The Bluest Eye, the class will introduce you to a variety of
theoretical approaches including psychoanalysis, Marxism, feminism, structuralism,
deconstruction, African-American criticism, and lesbian, gay, and queer criticism. We will
investigate how these various theoretical lenses focus on particular aspects of texts and we will
consider the risks and benefits of such approaches. We will also practice locating and evaluating
relevant scholarly sources, and we will write papers that draw on the interpretive, critical, and
theoretical skills developed throughout the course.

CORE COURSES-- OPEN TO EVERYONE, NO PREREQUISITES
PLEASE NOTE: ANY ADDITIONAL CORE COURSES NOT USED TO FULFILL THE
PRE-1800, POST-1800 AND AMERICAN LITERATURE REQUIREMENTS OF THE
MAJOR MAY COUNT AS ELECTIVES TOWARD THE MAJOR.
PRE-1800 COURSE (open to everyone—no prerequisites)
EN 304 (W) Early Modern Literature
Dr. Hurley
TTH 9:40-11:10
Sin, Guilt, Love, Damnation--and Politics. Ever wonder why those themes so engage our
interest and seem so central to everything we read or view--from serious literature to sitcoms?
Shakespeare wasn't alone in his preoccupation with romance and tragedy. Much of this material
emerged out of the Early Modern Period (formerly known as "Renaissance and Reformation")
with its discovery of the individual and the wonderful language that evolved to express the
excitement of that discovery. Characters like Astrophil, the Red Cross Knight, Donne's lovers
and Sir Thomas More's Utopian visions are our ancestors. Come and get acquainted with them
over the coming semester and discover your own individuality through and with them.
POST-1800 COURSE (open to everyone—no prerequisites)
EN 311(W) Modern English and Irish Literature
Dr. Schotter
MW 1-2:30
In the first decades of the twentieth century, Britain experienced great changes in class and
gender relations, hastened by the devastation of World War I. The British Empire began its long
decline, and nineteenth-century norms eroded. Visual artists, composers, and writers alike
experimented with new aesthetic forms to capture the uncertainties and freedoms of the new age.
We will read writers such as Conrad, Woolf, and Forster, as well as Yeats and Joyce, who
register the concerns of Britain’s first colony to declare independence in modern times—Ireland.
AMERICAN LITERATURE COURSE (open to everyone—no prerequisites)
EN 228(W) American Literature from 1865 to the Present
Dr. Tommasi
TTH 4:20-5:50
This course is a survey of major works, literary movements, and historical contexts for American
literature beginning with the reconstruction of American society and culture after the end of
slavery and continuing to the present day.
5
REQUIRED COURSES for Majors (Senior standing in the major)
EN 400 Senior Reflective Tutorial
Dr. Thomas
TTH 11:20-12:50
This course, taken in conjunction with EN 425 as part of the Senior Learning
Community, combines theory and practice. We will theorize and debate some of the key
concepts for the study of literature and culture. We will also use those concepts to analyze the
experiential component of the course, which for most students takes the form of an internship
(unless the student has already begun an honors thesis.) Prerequisites: Senior standing in the
English major and successful (C- or higher) performance in EN 212.
EN 425 Senior Seminar
Dr. Arant
MW 11:20-12:50
This course is a culminating experience for the senior English major. The advanced level will
permit intensive study of the subject, and the seminar format will permit active student
participation. Topics may include an author, genre, or the relationship between the study of
literature and another discipline.
ELECTIVES-- OPEN TO EVERYONE, NO PREREQUISITES
(any exceptions are noted below)
EN/SP 213(W) (H) Hispanic Literature in Translation (I)
Dr. Kiss
M. 6-9 pm
This is a course in English designed to introduce several masterworks of the Spanish and Latin
American literary traditions to students who may or may not be ready to read the texts in the
original language. Readings include selections from early peninsular works, such as El Cid and
the Quixote, pre-Columbian texts such as the Popol Vuh, poetry from colonial Mexico’s Sor
Juana and, finally, contemporary works from both Latin America (Borges, Cortázar, Allende)
and Spain (Matute, García Lorca, Arrabal).
EN 280(W) Writing Intensive Tutoring
Dr. Napolitano
TBA
This course prepares Writing Intensive Tutors (WITs) to work in the College's Writing Center.
The class will review the theories, philosophies and pedagogies on the teaching of writing.
Students will then apply what they have learned in a tutoring practicum in the Writing Center.
This course is restricted to selected students. Students who complete this course will be eligible
for, but are not guaranteed, employment in the Writing Center. To promote flexibility, this
6
course's meeting day/time will not be established until the roster has been formed; class meetings
will take place on days/times when all of the enrolled students are available. This course can be
taken for 1 or 0 units. Students must be recommended in order to register for this course.
EN 291(W) Advanced Creative Writing
Prof. Shore
TTH 2:40-4:10
A course for students who have demonstrated previous ability in creative writing. They will
develop their skills in genres such as longer fiction, playwriting, and memoir- writing, with an
eye to publishing their work. Attention will be given to the challenges of and opportunities for
publication in a digital age.
EN 291 Screenplay Writing
Prof. Dahlie
TTH 1-2:30
This course will introduce students to film and television screenplay structure. Students will
analyze the work of accomplished screenwriters in different genres (comedy, drama, horror,
adaptation etc) and will learn to apply this analysis to their own screenplay writing. They will
learn about character construction, narrative arch, story telling strategies, and proper
screenwriting form. Students will be evaluated on their participation, creative writing
(screenplays) and analytical writing.
EN 291(W) -ILC Topics in World Cultures and Cinema: Sankofa (must also take HI 242)
Dr. Thomas
TTH 2:40-4:10
The word “Sankofa” in the Akan language of Ghana means “reach back and get it.” Symbolized
by a bird with its head turned around to take an egg off its back, the heart-shaped image suggests
a metaphor for the importance of having an honest historical consciousness in order to fly
forward. Sometimes it is translated as, “it is not wrong to go back for that which you have
forgotten.” The symbol has been adopted by New York City’s African Burial Ground National
Monument and by Washington D.C.’s Museum of African American History and Culture. It is
also the title of one of the most controversial dramatic movies about the memory of slave revolt
by the Ethiopian-American director Haile Gerima.
This class will feature films from around the world that aim to think about the
relationship between past, present, and future. We will watch films from Italy, England, the
Netherlands, Curacao, Cuba, Nigeria, Senegal, and other countries in the world, as well as the
United States of America, that investigate the history of Africa’s connection to Europe, North
America, and the Caribbean. We will watch films about several topics, including recent movies
about the transatlantic slave trade, about anti-colonialist struggle in the 1960s and 70s, and the
about the recent media arts movement called “Afro-Futurism.”

EN 310 (W)* (I)(H)--ILC Cities and Perversities: Art and Literature in Turn-of-theCentury Paris, Vienna, Berlin, and Barcelona (team-taught and crosslisted with FR 310
and AH 326)
Drs. Urbanc and Morowitz
TTH 11:20-12:50
This team-taught ILC focuses on the art and literature in the fin-de-siècle in three major
European centers: Paris, Vienna and Berlin. The works of the period studied in relation to issues
of national identity, as a response to the shock of metropolitan life, sexuality, the impact of
psychoanalysis, escapism, and withdrawal to the interior. We will undertake a detailed reading
of some of the major literary works of the period by authors such as Arthur Rimbaud, Paul
Verlaine, Marcel Proust, Stefan Zweig, Lou Andreas-Salomé, Robert Walser, and Thomas
Mann. Artistic movements studied include Symbolism, Expressionism, Art Nouveau, and
Jugendstil. The course attempts to understand the shared visual and literary language of turn-ofthe-century Europe, while illuminating the special contributions of each city. The course includes
museum visits, films, special lectures, and shared readings and assignments. *W is pending
committee approval.

TBA 593 Independent Study Independent Study (open to junior or senior majors with an
overall GPA of 3.0 or higher)
A maximum of two courses (prior to Fall 2015, only one course) from either of the following
two categories may be counted as electives:
1) Film courses designated as “F” (EN 230, 356, 357, and 291 or 593, when they focus primarily
on film).
2) Courses devoted primarily to writing rather than literature (EN 280, 329, Journalism [JR]
courses, and 291 or 593, when they focus primarily on writing).
Only courses with a grade of C- or higher may be applied to the requirements of the major in
English. Although the study of a foreign language is not required, students majoring in English
are strongly urged to undertake such a study.
12
DEPARTMENTAL HONORS IN ENGLISH
Initial eligibility for departmental honors in English: Students who have earned a GPA of 3.5 in
the major and an overall GPA of 3.0 at the end of their junior year are eligible to pursue
departmental honors by writing an honors thesis and passing a defense of that thesis in their
senior year. Those who wish to do so may wish to register for an independent study (EN 593) to
be directed by a faculty mentor during the fall of their senior year. Though a student may elect to
pursue departmental honors without taking an Independent Study s/he should know that blocking
out sufficient time to focus on the project is easier if there is an Independent Study obligation. It
is essential that any student planning to pursue honors talk with a mentor during spring of junior
year in order to begin work on the project during the summer prior to senior year. The same
thesis may be counted toward the Wagner Honors Program and departmental honors in English.
It is important that you understand that you should undertake this project only if you have a keen
desire to do the work involved. If you miss a deadline (in September or after), you will not be
allowed to proceed to the defense, though you should complete your work in time to receive a
grade for the Independent Study if you have registered for one (it would usually be the
completion of an incomplete from fall of senior year)
Please note that the departmental honors thesis does not satisfy the writing requirements of the
SLC. The two courses in the SLC require substantial writing and analysis. The departmental
honors thesis is the experiential component of the SLC for those students who are eligible to
pursue it and complete the undertaking.
Also note that if you pursue departmental honors and take an independent study as part of that
work, the paper alone is not sufficient to earn departmental honors. You must successfully
submit (with your mentor’s approval) the final polished version to readers, pass an oral defense
of the paper and submit clean, edited copy to the chair to earn departmental honors.
Outline of Procedure for Departmental Honors:
In order to earn departmental honors you must do all of the following:
1) spring of Junior year: identify an area of interest that will be the focus of your departmental
honors thesis (if you are writing a thesis for the honors program that focuses on an appropriate
area, you may count this project as your English thesis)
2) spring of Junior Year: talk with and identify a mentor among the English department faculty
who can work with you
3) spring of Junior Year: register for an Independent Study for the fall of 2015 if that is part of
your plan (see note above)
4) summer between Junior and Senior Years: do all research and background reading over the
13
summer
5) fall of Senior year: a working annotated bibliography is due to your mentor and the
Department Chair (on paper--no e-mail) by the end of the day (4pm) on the last day of the
drop/add period
6) fall of Senior Year: prepare a prospectus of at least 5 pages. Due by the third Monday in
October. The prospectus must include a working Bibliography of critical works and must be
submitted both to your mentor and the Department Chair (on paper--no e-mail).
7) spring of Senior Year: meet with others pursuing departmental honors in January. Workshop
session with others pursuing departmental honors.
8) spring Senior year: request readers by the end of February.
9) spring of Senior Year: complete the final, polished version of your thesis by the week prior to
Spring Break and submit paper copies to your mentor and the two readers
10) During late March or early April in spring of Senior Year: successfully defend the thesis in a
meeting with your faculty mentor and two other readers from the department (full-time English
faculty members)
11) Submit clean paper copy of the thesis to the Department Chair by the end of April.
14
Typical Progress toward the English major
Possible Path One
A student declares the major in spring of her or his first year, but intended to be a major early
enough in fall term in order to begin taking courses in spring, so:
Spring--Year one
•2 English foundation courses
•3 general education courses
Fall--Year Two
•1 English foundation course
•1 core course in English
•2 or 3 general education courses
Spring--Year Two
•2 core courses in English
•2 or 3 general education courses
Fall--Year Three
•EN 330 Shakespeare Survey
•3 or 4 general education courses or courses toward a minor
Spring--Year Three
•1 or 2 English electives
•2 or 3 general education courses or courses toward a minor
Fall--Year Four
•1 or 2 English electives
•general education courses or courses toward a minor
Spring--Year Four
•EN 400 and 425
•general education courses or courses toward a minor
15
Possible Path Two
Another possibility is that a student declares the major in Spring of the first year and begins
the major in fall of the second year:
Fall--Year Two
•2 English foundation courses
•2 or 3 general education courses
Spring--Year Two
•1 English foundation course
•1 English core course
•2 or 3 general education courses
Fall--Year Three
•EN 330—Shakespeare Survey
•1 English core course
•2 or 3 general education or minor courses
Spring--Year Three
•1 English core course
•1 English elective
•2 or 3 general education or minor courses
Fall--Year Four
•2 English electives
•3 general education or minor courses
Spring--Year Four
•EN 400 and EN 425
•2 general education or minor courses
If a student begins the major after the fall of sophomore year, that student may have a couple
of semesters when s/he takes three English courses. Our advice is that those semesters not be
the ones when the student takes EN 330 or the Senior Learning Community (EN 400 and EN
425).
