EGL 220 -  The Romantic Revolution

Course Units: 1.0
(Spring: Burkett) The Romantic period was one of Britain’s most “revolutionary” eras in a number of important ways. For England, the age was marked by dramatic social, political, literary, and scientific upheaval and change. In this course we will investigate the various causes that were envisioned, promoted, and enacted during this era and trace their often wide-ranging and revolutionary effects. Readings will likely include selections from the following authors: William Wordsworth, Samuel Taylor Coleridge, William Blake, Mary Shelley, Lord Byron, Percy Bysshe Shelley, and John Keats. Prerequisite(s): One 100-level English course or a score of 5 on the AP English Language or Literature and Composition test. CC: HUL, HUM
