ENG 195-01 - Introductory Special Topic: Literature of Conflict

2 credits (Fall Term 1)
Cross-listed as: PCS 195-01 .  How might literary depictions help us understand the origins and drivers of conflict? Our readings and discussions will explore key concepts such as “just” vs. “unjust” war, structural causes of violence, and the distinction between conflict and abuse. Together, we will look at work from a diverse set of writers examining the nature of conflict, especially in relation to issues of gender and race. 

Prerequisite: None.
Instructor: Garrison
