ENG-220 Literature By and About Women

From Lilith to Bloody Mary, women have long been demonized for resisting social expectations of purity and propriety, and their stories have frequently been revised or removed from public consciousness. This course seeks to reinstate those stories, and to carefully examine what they reveal about women's experiences in male-dominated societies by way of writing, literary analysis, and discussion. Through poetry, fiction, drama, and film, we will broaden our knowledge, understanding, and appreciation of literature by and about women. * Diversity  Approved General Education Course.
