ENGL 490 Senior Seminar: Comprehensive Project

In this course seniors will design and carry out advanced research projects in areas of their own interests. Seminar meetings will be devoted to discussion of a core group of theoretical and/or historical texts (varying from year to year) and to practical issues of sophisticated literary critical work. The course will result in a substantial critical paper a version of which will be presented at the spring senior symposium in satisfaction of Occidental's comprehensive requirement. Open only to senior English majors
