This course is not offered in the current catalog or this is a previous listing for a current course.

This course focuses on British novels from the early decades of the twentieth century. We will study the emergence of innovative stylistic and narrative forms characteristic of modernism, and consider the ways in which such innovations shape the works’ exploration of questions of psychology and sexuality, moral integrity and betrayal, epistemology and aesthetics, race and empire. Readings will include such works as Ford’s The Good Soldier, James’s The Ambassadors, Conrad’s Heart of Darkness, Forster’s A Passage to India, and Woolf’s To the Lighthouse.
