ENG-H150 Honors Mysteries
Mysteries are sometimes dismissed as pulp but they are often highly reflective of the era in which they were written. This class will use mystery stories, novels and plays as a lens through which to view the major social, cultural and literary movements of the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries. With an emphasis on close reading and analysis, students will compose essays that explore the relationships between texts and the relationship between literary production and history. Additional assessments will include exams, a written response to a play we attend as a class, and a creative group project and presentation.
