Description: This course will be dedicated to an extended exploration of James Joyce's Ulysses, a novel that has often been called the most important literary work of the twentieth century. Most of our time will be devoted to an intensive reading of the novel itself, but we will also read selected critical and historical materials. No prior knowledge of Joyce's works is required, just a willingness to tackle the challenges offered by his most influential masterpiece.

Description: This course will acquaint you with the essential resources to carry out the central tasks of literary scholarship. Bibliography (broadly defined as the investigation of the production, dissemination, collection, location, and identification of literary artifacts) is indispensable to scholarship and criticism of all kinds, just as a critical sensibility guides our choice of what books to look for. You will be guided through the reference works and databases available in the Boston College library and others, discuss the goals, purposes, and future of the field of literary studies, and produce an original project based on archival sources.

Description: Sixteenth and early Seventeenth-Century England saw enormous changes in understanding what knowledge was and how it could be attained. These changes shaped the construction of modern attitudes towardthe environment, race, gender, religion, and politics--toward our sense of what human beings are and what their role innature should be. In this seminar we will read primary texts that reflect and participate in these changes, and secondary works that bring different methods and approaches to understanding them. Readings will include works by More, Shakespeare, Donne, Bacon, Cavendish, and others. There will be space for students to pursue research projects relevant to their own fields and interests.
