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 fulfills the Historical Perspectives and Early British Literature distribution requirements in the English major and a WAC Writing to Learn requirement. It also counts as a core literature/writing course for students in the old core who started that core with an ENGL 201-204 class. Permission is also being sought to count this as an Integration in the Humanities course as well. Prerequisite: ENGL 121, 190, 201, 202, 203, or 204.
