ENGL 2400 - World Literature I: Myths and Traditions

3 cr. 3 hr. May be offered less than once every two years. Also offered evenings.

This course presents a selection of works from around the world, from ancient traditions up to the 16th century. We explore aspects of the human experience and how they are reflected in the literary traditions of these time periods. Focus is on the JudeoChristian and Greco-Roman foundations of Western literature, the Confucian, Hindu/Sanskrit, Buddhist, and Islamic underpinnings of literature in Africa, Asia, and the Middle East, and the colonization of North America.
