ENGL 208 - Amer Lit Sur II 1865-Present Credit(s): 3 3 hours lecture, 3 hours contact Prerequisite(s): ENGL 112 or ENGL 192 / HONR 192 . This survey of American literature is from the post-Civil War period to the Present. The first part includes the emergence of Realism and Naturalism; the second part includes the Modern Period, in which the influence of social change, including World War I, Women’s Suffrage, Prohibition, and the Depression will be examined. In the Contemporary period, we will watch our national literature search for meaning, and prepare for change. We will question what it means to be “American,” the various ways that we define the term, and all the complexities surrounding the term.
