PSYCHOANALYSIS AND LITERARY CRITICISM IN THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY


This course pairs key psychoanalytic theories with literary “case studies” to trace the various afterlives of Freudian and post-Freudian thought within literary studies. By focusing on various literary devices, we will investigate the surprising correspondence between how the unconscious mind processes experience and how the author produces meaning through texts.

Prerequisite(s): At least 60% in 1.0 of English 1000-1999, or permission of the Department.
