【Course Objectives】

This course will foster students’ ability to create summaries, show them how to craft logical opinions, and teach them techniques for performing close readings of American literature. In addition to improving students’ English ability, this course will also provide them with knowledge of American literature and culture.

【Course Contents】

In J. D. Salinger's The Catcher in the Rye (1951), the narrator, Holden Caulfield, expresses a stronger admiration for F. Scott Fitzgerald over Ernest Hemingway. This seminar will closely explore the representative works of both Salinger and Fitzgerald to uncover the common traits they share.

Throughout the spring semester, we will engage in a comprehensive analysis of The Catcher in the Rye. While acquiring foundational knowledge about American history and culture from the Modernist period to the post-World War II era, we will also focus on various linguistic devices, appreciating the work from diverse perspectives. Additionally, we plan to commence the semester by watching the film Rebel in the Rye (2017), providing further insights into Salinger's creative process.
