ENL 200: Studies in Literature

Course Description: This section of Studies in Literature will focus on stories that convey the experience of coming of age, or growing up. We will explore examples of such stories in a variety of genres. In fact, the course structure will be based around questions of genre, with units dedicated to the following: short stories, poetry, film, and novels. Through these genres, we will consider questions of what it means to grow up, and of how different authors and genres address the idea of coming of age. This is a fully online section of ENL 200, which means that all of the course material will be accessed through Canvas. Also note that this is an accelerated course, meaning that it will only run for seven weeks and will cover material more quickly than a standard course.
