Sex, Suffrage and Empire<br />
Sex, Suffrage, and Empire: Modernism and the New Woman:<br />
The first decades <strong>of</strong> the twentieth century were a tumultuous<br />
time in Great Britain. Even before World War I plunged the<br />
nation into bloody conflict, British society was deeply<br />
divided over such matters as industrial reform, national<br />
defense, and sexual and racial “degeneration.” In this seminar,<br />
we will examine the emergence <strong>of</strong> literary modernism in the<br />
context <strong>of</strong> two <strong>of</strong> the most contentious developments <strong>of</strong> this<br />
period, imperial decline and the rise <strong>of</strong> militant feminism.<br />
Authors studied will include Olive Schreiner, George<br />
Bernard Shaw, Virginia Woolf, Katherine Mansfield, Mina<br />
Loy, D.H. Lawrence, Rebecca West, and Jean Rhys. Supple-<br />
mental readings will include contemporaneous political<br />
pamphlets, Suffragette manifestoes, and eugenic tracts.<br />

Childhood: Mystery and Muse<br />
One <strong>of</strong> the great, inexhaustible sources <strong>of</strong> inspiration for<br />
literature is childhood: that period <strong>of</strong> vivid wonder and<br />
terror, <strong>of</strong> our first fumblings toward knowledge about who<br />
we are and what it is like to live in this oddly beautiful (and<br />
beautifully odd) world. In this course, we will investigate<br />
how American literature in various genres-fiction, poetry,<br />
and memoir-has explored and explained childhood, and we<br />
will use those models as inspiration for our own attempts to<br />
capture, in language, what is worth retrieving from our own<br />
beginnings. To establish a template by which to appreciate<br />
some fundamental elements <strong>of</strong> the tale <strong>of</strong> childhood, we will<br />
start the semester by reading a few <strong>of</strong> the more wildly strange<br />
and mythically resonant Grimms’ fairy tales. After that, we<br />
will focus on American writers <strong>of</strong> the last century, with<br />
possible authors being Elizabeth Bishop, Theodore Roethke,<br />
Norton Juster, Tobias Wolff, Susan Minot, and Joanne Beard.<br />
This course counts toward completion <strong>of</strong> Core Curriculum<br />
requirements but not the Inquiries in American Literature<br />
requirement for English majors.<br />

Shakespeare and Love<br />
This course supposes that Shakespeare (who I think invents<br />
romantic comedy) has something to tell us about romantic<br />
love. Shakespeare portrays love as a process that may either<br />
succeed or fail. We will do romantic comedy and romantic<br />
tragedy-and the sonnets, which probably portray some <strong>of</strong><br />
Shakespeare’s personal bouts with love. Basic requirement for<br />
the course-you must be in or fall in love during the term.<br />
How else can we know? (kidding <strong>of</strong> course.)<br />
