In this class, we practice our skills of noticing details in the texts we read and using the details to help us make sense of what we read. We will also discuss how this ability of noticing details in reading is connected with noticing details in the world around us. Students will read and write about literary texts critically and closely. The course emphasizes recursive reading and writing processes that encourage students to discover, explain, question and clarify ideas. To this end, students will study a variety of genres as well as terms and concepts helpful to close analysis of those genres.

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.

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. Students will read and write about literary texts critically and closely. The course emphasizes recursive reading and writing processes that encourage students to discover, explain, question and clarify ideas.

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? Students will read and write about literary texts critically and closely. The course emphasizes recursive reading and writing processes that encourage students to discover, explain, question and clarify ideas. To this end, students will study a variety of genres as well as terms and concepts helpful to close analysis of those genres. They will practice various forms of writing for specific audiences and purposes. Students will reflect on and develop critical awareness of their own strengths and weaknesses as readers and writers. The writing load for this course is a minimum of 12 pages of formal revised writing.

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. Students will read and write about literary texts critically and closely. The course emphasizes recursive reading and writing processes that encourage students to discover, explain, question and clarify ideas.
