WGS 353 - The Victorian Age

1 semester, 3 credits-

Social reform, shifting perceptions of religion and science, expanding empires, and aesthetic experimentation defined the Victorians and produced new literary genres. Thematic emphasis of this course varies but always connects Victorian literature and its social context. Authors combine the canonical (Dickens, Tennyson, the Brownings, Wilde) with pioneers of sci fi, detective fiction, and children’s literature (Wells, Conan Doyle, Carroll, etc.). Same as ENG 353. Previously WMS.
