The universe is full of magical things patiently waiting for our wits to grow sharper,” writes Eden Phillpotts while observing the beauty of the buckbean, imbuing a mundane moment with mystic wonder. In this course, students will read texts which blend the familiar with the strange, the natural with the supernatural, and explore how these unusual stories subvert expectations, critique social structures, and amplify the magic in everyday life. Through their writing, students will have the opportunity to analyze and reflect on these texts, while also experimenting with literary and rhetorical techniques to express their own experiences and observations of this mystic and mundane universe.

The act of revision is more than just a step in the writing process — re-vision is the act of seeing with new eyes, whether it is an idea, a work of art, a relationship, or another aspect of lived experience. The practice of revision extends beyond the classroom, and encourages us to be curious, engaged, and reflective about ourselves, the people around us, and the choices we make every day. In this class, we’ll read texts that feature re-vision (of history, life, art, etc.) as a prominent theme, and incorporate re-vision actively in our weekly writing, journaling, and discussion activities.

This course centers texts that explore a sense of place in several ways: our sense of place in relation to others, in relation to history, and in relation to geographic places. We explore how authors contend with social issues through personal writing in essay and graphic narrative form, and how the film adaptations of a play can shape the audience’s perception of the text and their own sense of place.

This course will focus on close reading: how to do it, why to do it, and how it will change your life. Each week we will practice some core "moves" of close reading as we engage with a variety of texts by authors including Flannery O'Connor, Hua Hsu, William Gardner Smith, Tommy Orange, and Isabella Hammad, among others. Our reading and discussions will be guided by these essential questions: What is literature, and how does it shape, expand, and trouble our ideas about meaning-making, ethics, and morality? What does it mean to be a "critical thinker" and a "close reader" in society today? How can close reading empower us to understand, engage, and change our world?

What makes the American South such fertile ground for ghost stories, grotesque characters, and dark secrets? In this course, we’ll study traditional Southern Gothic writers like Flannery O’Connor alongside contemporary authors such as Jesmyn Ward, Percival Everett, and Mariana Enriquez, who are pushing the boundaries of the genre. We’ll also examine short stories, oral urban legends, film, and other art forms that explore how hauntings, decaying landscapes, and the uncanny help us confront histories of racism, religious trauma, violence, and social inequality.

Sustainability (SUST)
Writing Intensive
The course focuses on environmental writing, both outlining the positive side of our human need for immersion in nature (William Wordsworth and other poets) and responding to human ecological destructiveness (Lynn Nottage, Robin Wall Kimmerer, Pope Francis, and Diane Wilson). Climate change is one of the most urgent issues facing younger generations; readings in this course provide a foundation for thinking about core environmental issues in your own communities. NOTE: ENGL 190-W42 is a cross-listed class with a Living and Learning Community (LLC) section of ENGL 190. Three seats are available in the non-LLC side and 17 seats are available on the LLC side of the course.
