E179 Fantasy Literature

3 credit(s)
This course is designed to acquaint students with popular and influential works of fantasy fiction and to increase students’ appreciation of the experience of reading. With a particular focus on the ways in which fantasy authors build fictive worlds that challenge us to reevaluate the familiar and the magical, reinterpret ourselves and others, and reimagine the world around us, students will identify common conventions and themes, read texts closely and critically, and consider how the interpretation of literature contributes to a deeper understanding of language and culture. Prerequisite: E120  or E120 /E220  placement.
