English 420: Introduction to Literary Criticism: Syllabus for Fall 2008.  

My courses have a strict attendance policy (courses are costly: why waste what you paid for?). Helpful link: "Did I Miss Anything."

Typically, the following are the required texts in this course (but they are subject to change, so do not buy them until the class meets):

  • Leitch et al, ed. The Norton Anthology of Theory and Criticism. 
  • Guerin et al. A Handbook of Critical Approaches to Literature. 
  • James Joyce, Dubliners (Viking)
  • Ann B. Dobie, Theory into Practice
  • M. H. Abrams, Glossary of Literary Terms
  • Bosinelli/Moser, eds, ReJoycing: New Readings of Dubliners.
