Introduction to Literary Studies

Students read, discuss, and write analytic essays about significant concepts and texts in literary critical theory. They also learn to engage with critical approaches, which stem from multiple disciplines, and relate them to literary texts. Concepts covered may derive from such theorists as Aristotle, Longinus, Kant, Mikhail Bakhtin, Walter Benjamin, Jacques Lacan, Jacques Derrida, Michel Foucault, Helene Cixous, Edward Said, Henry Louis Gates, Gloria Anzaldua, and Judith Butler.CUNY Pathways: Flexible Core-Creative Expression
