Students continue to develop skills in close critical reading comprehension and written composition through exploration and evaluation of literary topics, themes, or issues within the discipline. Students critically and creatively evaluate a variety of interrelated literary texts, interpret and analyze a range of techniques and rhetorical strategies, and apply diverse critical perspectives. While course topics vary depending on faculty and student interest and current developments in the field, students learn to reflect critically and creatively and to articulate complexities and assumptions of various literary texts, considering their historical, political, and cultural contexts. Students investigate a topic, using scholarly writing that illustrates grammatically-correct style and appropriate documentation skills. Prerequisite: 6 credits of first-year English (with the exception of ENGL 1150) or equivalent OR permission of instructor or department Chair
