Course summary
Students begin their majors with English 100, "Working with Texts," where they master the fundamentals of textual analysis. Each semester students choose among a variety of courses ranging from Chaucer to South Asian Literature, on topics as diverse as Paranoia in Contemporary American Fiction and Film, Modernism and Mourning, and Vietnam War Writing. The program culminates in senior seminars, in which experienced majors and a professor focus intensely on significant problems and questions in the field. The English department's relatively small courses encourage students to think independently and to engage with one another's ideas. In addition, the flexibility of the major allows cross-disciplinary study.

The modules include English 100 Working with Texts; English 290 Senior Seminar (Writing Intensive); British to 1660 (Engl. 125, 327, 328, 360, 362, 364); British 1660-1900 (Engl 125, 126, 331, 366, 367, 369, 371, 372); American to 1900 (Engl 123, 376, 377, 378).
