Writing Intensive
British poet William Wordsworth wrote, "the Child is father of the Man"; what he meant, and explored thoughtfully in his writing, was that the experiences of childhood and adolescence serve as the foundation for the adult self a person will become. Wordsworth was clear: both joyful and painful adolescent experiences shape our characters. We will read both young adult and classic literature that focuses on the process of "surviving adolescence"--books in which writers reflect on how they or their characters navigate that challenging transition between childhood and adulthood. Possible texts may include William Shakespeare's AS YOU LIKE IT, Louisa May Alcott's LITTLE WOMEN, Roald Dahl's MATILDA, Corinne Duyvis's ON THE EDGE OF GONE, and one Harry Potter text by J.K. Rowling. The writing load for this course is a minimum of 15 pages of formal revised writing. This course satisfies the WAC Writing Intensive requirement and an Integrations in the Humanities requirement. Please note that ENGL 203 is non-repeatable; students wishing to take a second 200-level Texts in Conversation course will need to register for ENGL 201, 202, or 204. Prerequisite: ENGL 121 or 190.
