1 Introduction to Literary Theory and Methodology LITR.111 Spring 2013 INSTRUCTOR: Dr. Sooyong Kim Office: SOS Z08B, x1141 Office Hours: Wednesdays, 14:00-16:00, or by appointment COURSE DESCRIPTION This course is an introduction to the major schools of literary or critical theory from the past century, to the varied approaches scholars have taken to reading and interpreting texts. The schools covered begin with New Criticism and Reader-Response Theory and end with Postcolonial Studies. Besides gaining an understanding of the methods of each school, you will apply some of the methods to select works of short fiction. The readings for the course include general overviews, as well as important theoretical writings. TEXTS There are several main texts. Lois Tyson s Critical Theory Today provides the general overviews, and The Norton Anthology of Theory and Criticism the theoretical writings. For most of the course, Kate Chopin s The Storm will serve as a case study for applying the different critical methods. Four other works of short fiction will also serve as case studies. These and other readings are available as a course pack from the copy center. REQUIREMENTS Classes will consist of a background lecture and then discussion. You are expected to attend each class and to complete the reading assignments in full beforehand, so that we can have an informed discussion. Literary theory has a bit of a learning curve, especially the terminology, and it is not something that you can casually pick up. Your attendance and participation grade will be based largely on your active participation. From Week 3 onward, you will give as a group of 2 or 3 a presentation (~10 minutes) on a particular theorist s key ideas in connection with the assigned theoretical writing, as well as with the school under study. You are also required to produce a study handout, summarizing the key ideas, for your classmates. This will constitute a separate grade. There will be a midterm, testing you on the key ideas and terminology of the schools covered up to that point. In addition, you will write three papers. The first paper (3-4 pages) will be a case study on James Joyce s Araby, where you will apply a single critical method for analysis. For the second paper (5-6 pages), you will compare and contrast two critical methods. The third paper (7-8 pages) will be another case study, this time on Bessie Head s Snapshot of a Wedding, Salman Rushdie s Courter, or Murathan Mungan s Kanat Turizm in Deǧerli Yolcuları, where you will use your own mix of critical methods for analysis. GRADING Attendance / Presentation Midterm Paper 1 Paper 2 Paper 3 Participation 20% 10% 20% 10% 15% 25% Note: Student and Classroom Codes of Conduct will be enforced.
