An exploration of literary works, genres, and writers of the medieval world (roughly 750-1500 CE). The course situates a range of medieval poetry, drama, and prose within a specific topical and/or theoretical focus, such as "Drama Before Shakespeare" or "Writing Desire in the Middle Ages." Emphasis will be placed on the development of research-driven writing projects and oral presentation.
