An introduction to literary study for current and prospective literature majors. Readings are divided among three areas: primary texts, secondary texts that offer contexts for the primary texts, and works that define the study of literature. Each course section addresses its own topic.
Note: In order to continue in the literature major, students must complete LIT 2450 with a grade of B- or higher. The course is generally taken in the sophomore year; transfer students wishing to major in literature must complete LIT 2450 during their first semester at Purchase.
