ENGL 352: GOLDEN AGE DETECTIVE FICTION

Spring 2025 · Section 001 · CRN 26600

This course will look at British detective fiction written between the two world wars. We will be exploring the reasons for the ubiquity of the genre and its sub-genres from the country house mystery to the novel of global exploration, looking both at specific literary techniques and at the historical contexts of empire, gender relations, antisemitism, and shifting global power. Recommended Prerequisite(s): ENGL 200
