EGL 306 - Jr. Seminar (Spring): Romanticism Redux

Course Units: 1

(Spring; Burkett) In this seminar we will investigate the ways in which British Romantic imaginative literature becomes employed and transformed by audio, visual, and other technological productions from the mid-nineteenth century to the present. In so doing, we will explore Romantic-era primary texts (e.g., odes, novels, lyric poetry, closet dramas, etc., by William Wordsworth, Mary Shelley, Lord Byron, John Keats and others) alongside theories of new media as well as contemporary media theory and history.
