ENG 394 - Studies in Modern Literature: The Avant-Garde (Fall 2017)

A course concerned with avant-garde schools, movements and strategies, “The Avant-Garde” will include exploration of different genres, media, and cultures, and investigate relationships between avant-garde practice and theory, artistic innovation and social change, and forms, platforms, and politics. Because of its focus on challenging the white, male domination of the avant-garde with attention to women, queer, and minority poets from modernism to the present day, this course meets the diversity requirement for the English major and qualifies for GSS credit.
