Section 002 and Section 003 with Raza Ali Hasan

Only binge-worthy selection鈥攔otten tomatoes rating of 98 or above鈥攊s on the reading list. Short stories by writers like Kafka, A.S. Byatt, Marquez, Gibson, or poems by poets like Elizabeth Bishop, Stevens, Frost, Auden, Muir. With no heavy tomes this class should be manageable during a busy semester. You will learn how poems and stories are put together and the related tools to decipher their meaning. For each poem or short story there will be a video lecture presentation available on Canvas plus in-class, in an actual classroom, further explication and discussion. The aim of this class is utter comprehension of the literary material so that when you respond to the material you respond not with dread but with pleasure.
