Course Significance
All second-year English Novel courses share the following features:
 Students are presumed to be proficient in the writing of critical essays on literary subjects.
 Students are required to read in the course subject area beyond the texts assigned by the instructor
or discussed in class.
 Students are required to incorporate into their oral and written coursework secondary source
materials. These may include autobiographical or biographical material; literary criticism or
theory; unassigned texts by the author under study; relevant cultural or intellectual history; or
other arts, such as music, film, or fine arts.
 Readings and topics will vary with each instructor’s presentation of a course; however, all course
materials are consistent with the objectives/outcomes for this course.
In English 2319, students will examine a selection of novels from the 18 th century onward, in order to
trace the features and stages of the British novel as an evolving genre within its historical and social
contexts.
