ENGL 312 Topics in Fiction Modernist Novella 3 credits
Grade Method: REG/P-F/AUD Much Modernist
fiction reacted against the "baggy
monster" novels of the Victorians by
cultivating economy in presentation and
style. The trend was hospitable to the
novella-longer than a short story, shorter
than most novels. This course will examine
the American Modernist novella both as a
form, with its own tendencies and
peculiarities, and as a vehicle for
characteristically Modernist themes and
approaches to the representation of
experience. Authors and works to be read
include Edith Wharton's Ethan Frome,
William Faulkner's As I Lay Dying, Glenway
Wescott's The Pilgrim Hawk, and novellas
by K.A. Porter, Nathanael West and others.

Adaptation
Grade Method: REG/P-F/AUD The course will
examine the process and the art of
literture-to-film adaptations. What is the
nature of the "literary" and the
"cinematic?" Key moments from the history
of the novel, from Robinson Crusoe to
Lolita, will allow us to interrogate the
diverse modes of translating literary
texts to moving images. Our path will
ultimately bring us to analyze film as a
commodity and cultural artifact.

ENGL 364 Perspectives on Women in Literature Jane 3 credits
Austen and the Romantic Novel
Grade Method: REG/P-F/AUD
GEP:Meets WI and AH. GFR:Meets AH. No one
is indifferent to Jane Austen. A crucial
figure in the history of the novel and a
powerful figure in English literary
history generally, Austen is venerated or
despised with peculiar intensity - for
being a brilliant stylist or a provincial
bore, an instrument of commonplace
repression or of ironic subversion. We
will test these and other views by
studying Austen's fiction (Northanger
Abbey, Sense and Sensibility, Pride and
Prejudice, Mansfield Park, Emma and
Persuasion) within the sociohistorical
context of the Romantic era, and reading
her work alongside other novels written by
women writers in this period including
Frances Burney, Ann Radcliffe, and Maria
Edgeworth. Instructor: Orianne Smith,

Grade Method: REG/P-F/AUD This course will
examine the techniques and approaches of a
varied group of distinguished travel
writers, and students will apply what they
discover in writing their own essays about
place. Along the way, we will consider
such questions as: What is the point of
writing about travel? What subtexts do we
find in writing that explores "exotic"
landscapes and cultures? What are the
effects of travel writing in an era of
globalization? To what extent is travel a
metaphor for exploring the self? Authors
may include Freya Stark, Mark Twain, Jan
Morris, Bruce Chatwin, Martha Gellhorn,
Pico Iyer, Tim Cahill, C.M. Mayo, Joan

ENGL 405 Seminar in Literary History Ancient Myth 3 credits
and Early Modern Literature
(PermReq) Grade Method: REG/P-F/AUD This seminar
will examine the widespread adaptations of
Greek and Roman myth in early modern
literature. The course will include texts
from different classical genres (such as
pastoral poetry and romance), as well as
texts that trace a particular myth (such
as the tale of Orpheus and Eurydice) or
re-work the range of ancient gods and
heroes for a Christian audience. Students
will become acquainted with the important
Renaissance compendia of myths, such as
Boccaccio's Genealogia deorum gentilium
(Genealogy of the Pagan Gods) and Vincenzo
Cartari's Imagini (translated into English
in 1599). The course readings will include
Arthur Golding's translation of Ovid's
Metamorphoses, which was one of
Shakespeare's favorite books; Edmund
Spenser's Shepheardes Calender; Philip
Sidney's Arcadia; Mary Wroth's Urania; and
many shorter works by such authors as Ben
Jonson, Robert Herrick, John Milton, and
Andrew Marvell. Permission of the

ENGL 448 Seminar in Literature and Culture Walt 3 credits
Whitman, Our Contemporary?
(PermReq) Grade Method: REG/P-F/AUD This seminar
will examine what it means to read Walt
Whitman as an innovative poet, social
visionary, and national icon. The main
focus will be on Leaves of Grass (1892),
but we will also read Whitman's little
known novel Franklin Evans, or the
Inebriate (1842) and his prose works
Democratic Vistas (1870) and Specimen Days
(1882). We will explore the specific
features of Whitman's free verse, consider
the relation between his revolutionary
poetics and his utopian hopes for American
society, and reflect on his pivotal place
in American literature. In the final weeks
of the course, we will talk about Whitman
as "contemporary" of some of today's most
daring poets, including John Ashbery,
Adrienne Rich, Joshua Beckman, and Noelle
Kocot. Permission of the instructor
required. Instructor: Piotr Gwiazda,
gwiazda@umbc.edu.

ENGL 486 Seminar in Teaching Composition: Theory 3 credits
and Practice
(PermReq) Grade Method: REG/P-F/AUD Since the late
1960s a revolution has taken place in the
teaching of composition. This course will
trace the profound changes in our
understanding of the teaching of writing
by examining key theories and major
players during this 35-year period.
Included will be expressivist theories of
Murray and Elbow, cognitive approaches of
Emig and Flower, social constructionist
perspectives of Bartholomae and Bizzell,
as well as the political approaches. Our
readings will include a number of genres:
autobiography, writers' journals, academic
and personal essays, and social science
research reports. Students will write
three papers in which, employing course
theories and genres, they will experiment
with their own writing, possibly creating
their own "mixed genres." As students
discuss and write about the assigned
literature, they will be asked to bring
theories of teaching composition into
dialogue with practice, that is, to
consider how these theories may be
instantiated in actual classroom
situations. Permission of the instructor
required. Instructor: Lucille McCarthy,
mccarthy@umbc.edu. Also listed as ENGL
686.

ENGL 493 Seminar in Communication and Technology 3 credits
(PermReq) Grade Method: REG/P-F/AUD This seminar
will cover issues of information
ownership, copyright and exchange in
digital cultures. We will start with a
general overview of what it means to "own"
objects and information within an economy
of exchange, and move into information
economies and their relationship to
technological developments. We will learn
about the current "copyright wars" and
their relationship to developing movements
in open source and open content. In your
final assignment, you will be given the
opportunity to work on a practical open
source or open content project of your
choice, with the idea that you will
"release" this project into the
information ecology by the end of the
semester. Permission of the instructor
required. Instructor: Helen Burgess.
