This course acquaints students with the wide range and varied forms of the short story as it developed in America, Europe, and other continents. Readings will include works by male and female authors of different periods and nationalities, and some attention may be paid to the historical development of the short story as a genre, as well as the cultural contexts in which the assigned stories were written.

CUNY First DescriCourse description: This is a course that builds upon skills introduced in English 101. In this course, literature is the field for the development of critical reading, critical thinking, independent research, and writing skills. Students are introduced to literary criticisms and acquire basic knowledge necessary for the analysis of texts (including literary terms and some literary theory); they gain proficiency in library and internet research; and they hone their skills as readers and writers. Assignments move from close readings of literary texts in a variety of genres to analyses that introduce literary terms and broader contexts, culminating in an independent, documented, thesis-driven research paper. By the conclusion of English 201, students will be prepared for the analytical and research-based writing required in upper-level courses across the curriculum; they will also be prepared for advanced courses in literature. I expect serious work from my students, but I think it can be enjoyable as well. This class begins the process of extrapolating universal themes from the material we read and applying them to the conundrum of human experience, in a literary framework, so as to understand our lives as part of a greater pattern of “the condition of mankind.” Works are thematic, not set up by genre. This is a thematic course. it is not set up by Genre (Plays, Fiction, poetry) it is instead set up according to ideas (themes.). Throughout the semester, poems will be introduced as they compare or contract to the themes of the larger works being studied. By the end of this course, you will be familiar with multiple forms of poetry, including Iambic pentameter, Blank Verse, and lyrical, Requirements for Zoom Classesption
