LIPC130 Literature - Italy through 19th and 20th Century American & British Writers

3 credit(s)
The course considers the importance of Italy for non-Italian writers, particularly European, British and American writers from the eighteenth century onward.  Topics considered include: a critique of the perception and construction of Italy and Italians, the development of genres like the Gothic or novels of national identity, the gendering of nationality, imperialism, the use of art and history in literature. Consideration is given to the ways in which these works are in dialogue with each other in terms of cultural assumptions and influence.
