ENGL 360: AMERICAN LIT BEFORE CIVIL WAR
Fall 2026 · Section 001 · CRN 15805
A survey of American literatures spanning the Age of Discovery, Atlantic Revolutions, and onset of the U.S. Civil War. In exploring Eurocentric, Indigenous, and African-diasporic perspectives from this period, students will consider the role of story-telling in history, how power structures try to decide which stories get told, and also how authors like Sor Juana Inés de La Cruz, Phillis Wheatley Peters, and Leonora Sansay, among others still made themselves heard.
