ENGL 281.07 London Program: Imagining Nineteenth Century London 6 credits
Open: Size: 25, Registered: 19, Waitlist: 0
Requirements Met:
Focusing on nineteenth century fiction and descriptive literature, we will examine visual as well as verbal images of London that informed writers’ sense of its place as urban metropolis, national capital, and center of the British Empire. Themes will include city and country, place and class, the impact of technology, identity and alienation, art and life, colonial and cosmopolitan viewpoints. In addition to major British writers (who may include Austen, Dickens, Thackeray, Stevenson, and Forster), we will read a few works by Americans in England (such as Irving, Poe, Emerson, and Henry James) and examine paintings by Constable, Turner, and Whistler. Field trips will include visits to the British Museum, the Tate Britain, the Victoria and Albert Museum, and other museums and historic houses in and around London.
