ENGL 65.03 Summer Tomes

Long reads for long days! The English Department’s annual “Summer Tomes” class will offer rising juniors at Dartmouth the opportunity to dive deeply into a single work that would otherwise be prohibitively long for inclusion on a quarter-long syllabus. Together, we will spend our summer reading a celebrate tome of English-language literature, immersing ourselves in its language while also placing it within relevant historical, cultural, and theorical contexts. Students will be asked to apply numerous theoretical and methodological lenses to the text, and to compose their own creative reinterpretations and adaptations of the text.

The Timetable of Class Meetings contains the most up-to-date information about a course. It includes not only the meeting time and instructor, but also its official distributive and/or world culture designation. This information supersedes any information you may see elsewhere, to include what may appear in this ORC/Catalog or on a department/program website. Note that course attributes may change term to term therefore those in effect are those (only) during the term in which you enroll in the course.
