授業の概要と目的（何を学ぶか）Outline and objectives
What is literature? What happens when we are reading a novel or studying a text? At its base, the study of literature is an ongoing conversation about these questions. This course prepares students to take part in that conversation by introducing the major concepts, tools, and theories of literary research. Students will broadly explore the historical issues that shape the field and cultivate an approach to critical reading that can be utilized in upper-level literature classes. In particular, this course will cover concepts of canonization, genre, close reading, and historical and comparative methodologies.
到達目標Goal
Students will gain an understanding of the basic methodologies and approaches of literature research. Students will also develop critical reading and writing skills.
