Text Code AM011

【Course Objectives】

Through the intensive reading of literary texts, students will cultivate a personally/socially imaginative understanding of those who have different values and backgrounds from their own, thereby expanding their awareness of challenges confronted in a multicultural world.

【Course Contents】

To examine the ways in which American literature, rooted in multiculturalism, represents social minorities, this course will focus on six categories outlined in the class schedule below, featuring a total of twelve writers and poets.
Assigned teams will prepare a couple of questions about interpretive possibilities of the assigned text 4 days prior to the class meeting, and class participants will answer one of the questions in written form on Canvas LMS by the day before the class meeting. During class hours, assigned teams will distribute handouts for the class containing a summary (or a selected Japanese translation in the case of poems) and detailed linguistic explications of the assigned text. Then, students will participate in a group discussion about one of the two questions, followed by a class debate about each question. Written answers to the questions will be returned to each student the following week with the instructor's comments.
Besides weekly assignments, students will be required to read and write an essay on Hemingway's The Old Man and the Sea in Japanese translation.
