EGL 210 - British Literature: Seventeenth-Century Literature

Course Units: 1.0
(Not Offered this Academic Year) This course will look at seventeenth-century literature and culture through the idea of revenge, which became a dominant form in an age of turmoil, injury, and change. We will begin with the early revenge plays of Shakespeare, Tourneur, Marston, Ford, and Webster, proceed through the cosmic revenge of Satan in Paradise Lost, and end with the ironic revenge exacted on moral goodness by the Restoration poets, playwrights, and philosophers. 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
