ENG 349

Form and Genre

This forms course, required for the Writing major, asks students to read extensively in two genres in order to deepen their understanding of the craft of creative writing. Class discussion will focus on analysis of classic and contemporary texts and an examination of the decisions writers make in their particular genres (and forms within those genres) to create certain results. For the Writing major, ENG 349 should be taken prior to ENG 412, Senior Seminar; it may be taken concurrently with Creative Writing Workshops (ENG 301-343). (Please note: this course does not count for the upper-level literature course requirement for the Writing or Literature major.)
