How have heroic ideals changed from Beowulf to the 18th century? How did marriage evolve from an arrangement between tribes and families to love between two people? Such questions will be explored in a chronological framework through extensive readings in the British literary tradition in the period from approximately 900-1780. Threaded throughout the literature are themes such as war and conflict, the history of love, humor and satire, social reform, religious reform and the rights of the individual. This course satisfies the core Literature and Writing requirement for students who started that requirement with an ENGL 201-204 class and fulfills both the Historical Perspectives and the Early British Literature requirements in the English major. Prerequisites: ENGL 201, 202, 203, or 204.
