ENGL 2049W-H71, H72 (formerly 149W) Writing Through Research
Looking for a “W” course? ENGL 2049W is a new course at the Hartford Campus designed for students who want support and practice in writing and research. ENGL 2049W is a sophomore-level "W" course with a focus on individual student projects.
The goal of this course is for students to pursue a sustained writing and research project that is both independent and intellectually rich, and to accomplish this work in the context and community of other writers with similar objectives. The course will take students from proposal and drafting stages to completion and presentation, with specific focus on library and web research and the use of university resources and disciplinary knowledge.
The “subject” of this course depends on the students enrolled. The main project could build on the work one has done or is doing in another course, and it could come out of a personal interest one has in a particular subject (or both, of course). Successful past projects have addressed topics relating to arts and entertainment, psychology, business, cultural studies, technology, biology, the environment, and more. Prerequisite: ENGL 110 or 111.

This course examines literary explorations of American ethnic identity and experience after the 1960s, in the aftermath of the civil rights movement, the women's movement, and colonial struggles for liberation. These political and cultural movements transformed our society in specific ways, particularly through the increased attention to race, ethnicity, and gender. We will examine how these issues and changes are represented in writing that has since emerged from several cultural locations, including African American, Native American, Asian American, Polish American, Latino, Chicano, Jewish American, and the Caribbean.
The reading list will include the following authors: Lorraine Hansberry, Saul Bellows, James Baldwin, Maxine Hong Kingston, Leslie Maron Silko, Gloria Naylor, Vivian Gornick, Richard Rodriguez, Eva Hoffman, Jamaica Kincaid, and Bharati Mukherjee. There will be secondary readings in literary criticism and cultural studies, which will provide theoretical frameworks for the analysis of the texts, for weekly discussions, and formal writing assignments. The course grade will be based on class participation, weekly reading responses, and two revised essays.
ENGL 3235W-H71 (formerly 235W) Reading the American City
What do cities make us want? And what do we want from our cities? This course examines the role of urban environments in twentieth-century American literature. Cities can be sites of promise and possibility, and also of constraint and despair. We will examine how cities shape characters, how characters shape their environments, and also how authors attempt to depict cities as "characters" in their own right. Readings will include Wright's Native Son, Dreiser's Sister Carrie, Cisneros's The House on Mango Street, Henry Roth's Call It Sleep, and Toni Morrison's Jazz. Recommended for English and Urban and Community Studies majors.
This course is discussion-centered, with your contributions playing an important part in your final grade. There will be three papers, each 5-6 pages, and all must be revised. For further information (including for sophomores seeking permission to take the course, which will be decided on a case-by-case basis), contact clareeby@earthlink.net.
