ENG 5250 - Literary and Critical TheoryThis course surveys philosophies that impact literary or cultural studies, from the thought of ancient philosophers to modern critical theorists. Delving deep into theories of language, representation, power, and identity, students will explore a wide range of intellectual problems that drive advanced work across a number of fields in today's world. Thus it also prepares students to engage the discourses prevalent in graduate studies across the humanities.
