[edit] Description from course catalog
- We will be reading a set of exemplary 19th-century British novels alongside the writings of influential Victorian thinkers such as Freud, Darwin, and Marx. We will examine how the interrelation of work, sex and death shapes both the form and content of these novels, and how the rearrangement of these features generates genres such as the bildungsroman, the gothic, and realism, and characterizes figures such as the governess, prostitute, vampire, and detective. Texts and course will vary from ENGL 223. Nature of Text. British, 1700-1900.
