Welcome to Great Works of Literature!

Hello and welcome to Great Works of Literature II, ENG 2850 HTRC.

We’ll be using this course blog to enrich our classroom experience by sharing responses to the readings, announcements, and links to outside material. In addition to your required blog posts, you should feel free to post anything that seems relevant to our class–a video you watched, something you took a picture of, an article you read, etc. I’m looking forward to getting started!

If you’re interested, here are a few more readings on the canon, the debate surrounding it, and how we define literature, to follow up on our discussion today:
“Revisiting the Canon Wars”
“The Use and Abuse of Literature” (excerpt)

What’s your take?

Comment here to let me know you’ve successfully joined the blog: re-introduce yourself to the group, add an idea about today’s discussion, or share a thought about your expectations for the class.
