【Course Objectives】

 Through reading Oscar Wilde's short stories in the original as well as the Japanese translation of The Picture of Dorian Gray as assigned reading, students will acquire basic English reading comprehension and critical thinking skills to understand English literature academically.

【Course Contents】

 In this course, students will do a close reading of Oscar Wilde's short stories in a seminar style based on student presentations and class-wide discussion. Wilde is said to be a master of irony and paradox, and there is often a gap between what is written literally and the author's actual message. Students are expected to read these gaps and consider why such gaps are effective in literature.
In addition, all students will read Wilde's The Picture of Dorian Gray as an assigned reading and submit a report in June. Feedback on this report will be given during the last week of class, through which students will learn the basics of report writing.
