ENG-333 Hemingway and Faulkner

This course pairs two literary giants of early twentieth-century American modernism: Ernest Hemingway and William Faulkner. Although they lived in the same period and were both enormously influential for later writers in the U.S. and beyond, Hemingway and Faulkner had strongly contrasting prose styles. Studying them together in this course allows readers to understand their common roots in the innovations of modernism and American culture as well as what made their respective innovations radically distinct.(Literature Seminars) Prerequisites: 200-level Introduction to Literary Studies course (any version).
