ENG 120-03 - Literary Analysis

4 credits (Fall)

Adaptation & Multimedia Storytelling: As Angels in America declares about them party costumes, “it’s all been done before.” Yet when a story or idea moves from genre to genre, form to form, audience to audience, place to place, time to time, it transforms into something new. This course will examine adaptation processes and examples, including theatre, poetry, fiction, dance, music, film, and digital storytelling. In addition to writing essays and short response posts, students will create their own adaptations inspired by materials from the College Archives and drawing upon digital and non-digital methods.

Prerequisite: None.
