Outline (in English)

The aim of this course is to understand the literary history of American women writers. We will read their short stories chronologically from the late nineteenth century through the late twentieth century. While paying special attention to women's changing roles in society as well as women writers' mutual interactions with each other, we will also consider specific themes and strategies unique to American women writers. The course also enhances students' skills in close reading of texts and in effective oral presentations and academic papers. Students' required study time for each class meeting is at least four hours. Grading will be based on in-class contribution (40 %), presentations (30 %), and papers (30 %).
