 Course Description

The History of English Literature is a compulsory course for the students of the major of English. Generally speaking, English Literature consists of two branches or two courses: The History of English Literature and Selected Readings in English Literature. Of the two courses, Selected Readings is important than the history, but that doesn’t mean history is a negligible unit. A good command of history of literature will enable the students to obtain a keen observation of literary works of different periods, and different genres, and thus to foster a critical mind of literature. Of course, history course can not be separated with the literary readings. In the teaching of History Course, the combination with Selected Readings in English Literature is widely adopted. 

Targets of the Course

Through the study of The History of English Literature, the students are supposed to obtain some basic and important knowledge and information about English Literature and its history. To be more specific: the five major periods of British literature (Renaissance Period, Neoclassical Period, Romantic Period, Victorian Period and Modern Period) and their individual characteristics, master representatives and the masterpieces. Hence the students can obtain some basic knowledge of literary appreciation and criticism.
