ENGLISH 320: The Single Author Seminar
What is the value and use of engaging deeply with a single author's work? Each member of the seminar will select an author to focus on for the quarter based on their own research interests, and read a substantial body of the work of whatever author you choose. As a group, we will organize our discussion by themes that can unite many writers: the canonical anthology piece, the 'forgotten' minor work; historical context. We'll also address collaboration and other challenges to the individual author as a meaningful object of study. This seminar will also provide practice in engaging in scholarly conversation that does not revolve around shared primary texts.
