CLS 270 - Ethnic and Women’s Literature

(4)
The course provides an intensive study of the literature of ethnic and women writers in the United States within historical, social and cultural contexts.  We will investigate the roots of prejudice against marginalized groups, including women, and the power dynamics of the struggle for inclusion and equal representation that continues in our time.  Key works by significant Native American, African American, Latino/a and women writers, primarily from the 20th and early 21st centuries, will include fiction, poetry and nonfiction. (Same course offered as ENGL 270  and HIST 265 .)
