| Content | This is the second part of the survey of English literature designed to give students an overview of English literary history and culture from the early modern period to the present day. We will cover the period from the late 17th century to around 1800 and look at important texts, authors, movements and developments and place them in a historical and cultural context. |
| Learning objectives | Students will become acquainted with major texts and events in English literature and learn to place them in a larger cultural context. They will acquire a general framework to serve as a basis for their in-depth studies. |
| Bibliography | The lecture slides will be available on ADAM. For preliminary reading you may consult Volume I of the two-volume "Norton Anthology of English Literature" as well as standard literary histories available in our library. |
