Department of English

This course, consequently, will examine a number of poets in the so-called Romantic Period--both the traditionally "major" and the more recently "major"--as well as a reasonable sampling of its drama. In particular, we will spend considerable time examining these writers in relation to one another, and in the context of the cultural movements in which they participated. Requirements: there will be several responses, a short essay, a long essay, and a final examination.
