Graduate Studies in Romantic Literature (online)

The Romantic Era in Britain, while short, was an intense and influential literary period. In this course we will read poetry, fiction, and nonfiction responding to shaping events such as the French Revolution and its aftermath, the British abolition of slavery, and industrialization. We will read authors such as Wordsworth, Keats, Austen, Blake, Wollstonecraft, Shelley, and Byron.
