Contents
This course is meant to deepen and practice (text)analytical skills and categories acquired in the course of your previous studies. We will study various (mainly canonical) texts from different centuries covering the three major genres. In this context, we will also consider questions concerning the development of these genres in English literature as well as examples of subgenres.
Studying texts intensively in preparation for this class is a basic prerequisite for this course and expected of all participants. This course not only entails a relatively heavy reading load but some of the texts are quite challenging. So please begin reading the longer texts over the semester break!

William Shakespeare, Othello (Arden Edition)
Oscar Wilde, The Importance of Being Earnest (any edition)
Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice (preferably Oxford World Classics)
Virginia Woolf, Mrs. Dalloway (preferably Penguin Modern Classics)
J. M. Coetzee, Disgrace
Copies of additional shorter texts will be made available on StudOn.
