EN 887 Introduction to Advanced Research (Fall: 3)
This course asks students to contemplate the kind of literary scholar they
want to be and then provides them with basic literary research tools that
will help them achieve this goal. By becoming versed in bibliographical
and archival methods and learning about research techniques in complimentary
fields of study, students will become grounded in the basics of contemporary
literary studies. Readings on academic scholarship and disciplinary methods
and workshops on traditional and special library collections and internet
resources define this course. Students will demonstrate their knowledge
of these essentials by producing an original, archived-based research essay.
