To that end, it includes instruction in writing strategies, and assignments and exercises designed to develop the student s abilities as a writer. Students receive instruction in the general principles of composition as well as in the specific development, organization, style, and mechanics of the academic argument essay. The course also includes instruction in reading and using source materials according to either mla and/or apa styles of documentation. Readings and assignments in English 30 are drawn from a variety of academic disciplines.

7 Reading Literature & Culture This course is organized thematically, typically examining a range of texts in the light of a central theme, such as crime (and punishment), the quest for identity, utopias, the image of the masculine, immigrant experiences. Students will read works from at least two of the three major genres fiction, poetry, and drama and study works of at least one other sort, which may include works of a less traditional kind, such as creative nonfiction, graphic novels, and film. 0 2

8 0 2 Instructor D. Stiles In this section of English 02 we read literature that explores various aspects of identity. Our social identity is shaped by family, friends, and community, as well as factors such as gender and ethnicity. Our psychological makeup reflects our thoughts and feelings about our experiences. Philosophical and spiritual inquiry can shape our ideas of what it means to be human, and what our place is in the cosmos. And scientists are making new discoveries about the relationship between the self and the brain, or between a mind and a computer. Our course readings survey the terrain of your own lifelong voyage of discovery toward your self.

On the whole, the course will address how representations of the archive might reveal inherent biases about race, gender, and cultural production while at the same time providing context for coping with the increasing volume of our own digital production, personal archives, and social records.

Smolash Literature and Social Justice is our theme this semester, and it begins with the assumption that imaginative acts are part of social movements, and are one of the ways we imagine a better world. The class will offer students foundational training in social justice and community building skills, and then explore these skills in the context of literary works. The first half of the class will be focused on the ways speculative fiction is used by marginalized communities to bring life-affirming futures into being. In the second half, students will create their own utopias, using skills and concepts taught in class to make group decisions about the world they would like to see.

This course will examine one novel, two nonfiction memoirs, and a poetry collection that explore these questions. We will also screen the film version of Jarhead, the film The Battle for Haditha, and a documentary (Following Antigone) on the use of forensic anthropology in the field of human rights. Trainor, ed.

Bourget In this course, we will explore some of the ways speculative fiction allows us to interrogate and define our own humanity. Discussing a wide variety of science fiction, horror, and fantasy texts, we will use speculative fiction to examine both what it means to be human and what it might mean to be something other than human. Keeping in mind always the political import of all that we discuss, we will also speculate about the significance of gender and sexuality, of class and race, and of language and intelligence. In doing so, we will hopefully arrive not only at a greater understanding of the power and influence of our cultural, political, and social norms, but will also learn how speculation about who we might become, helps us determine who we are now.

11 Instructor B. Gray This section of 02 focuses on issues of identity and how identity and nationality are shaped and skewed by the pressures imposed on racialized bodies. We ll specifically be looking at Indigenous and Black bodies in Canadian and American literature, and the ways in which current political movements like Idle No More, and Black Lives Matter respond to and demand change from traditional modes of literature.

This means that there are no face-to-face meetings, but students are expected to log into the course at least three times each week, and should plan to spend at least four hours online each week in course activities (excluding reading time and essay writing). An in-person final exam is required (off-site students may be required to make proctoring arrangements for the final exam). 0 2

13 Reading Fiction Reading Fiction (English 06) emphasizes the close reading of novels and short stories. Texts for the course will cover at least three different kinds of fiction, for example, realist and naturalist, fantasy and science fiction, romance, mystery. 0 6

14 Instructor N. Phillips In 06 this semester we will study texts that explore the line between the human and the monster, and between how we think of ourselves and what is really inside us. The works we will read all present human hybrids that inspire fear and sometimes wonder, not simply because of their monstrosity but because of their similarity to normal humans. Ultimately, these kinds of stories force us to consider what does it mean to be a human? Can we ever lose our humanity? Who is a monster, and why? How does the human body itself conceal or reveal truths about ourselves? Stoker Le Fanu Stevenson Marion Hoffman Marshall Dracula Carmilla The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde Warm Bodies The Sandman Sanditon 004 [32764] Tues/Thur, 0:30am-2:30pm New West 0 6 Instructor R. Dwor This section of 06 investigates engagements in literature with the themes of war and memory. Narrating memories of traumatic events is rarely straightforward. Far from being a reliable lens, memories often emphasize unexpected moments and occur out of sequence; they may be partial and blur the line between history and myth. Furthermore, trauma can cloud memory, but the ways in which wars are memorialized in public monuments, cinema, personal testimony, and literature can shape national identities and inform contemporary political positions. We will read novels and short stories that explore the challenges of remembering and recounting experiences of war. Students should be aware that the material studied this semester will at times involve descriptions of violence and sexuality.

We will consider if and how women and men are Stiffed (to use Susan Faludi s term), or stifled by the very limited roles society allows. Please be aware that we will be exploring viewpoints and ideas which may be difficult and sensitive, and potentially disquieting; keep an open mind, but also realise that if you are unwilling or unable to accept exploring these issues, this may not be a suitable class for you.

Stephenson At present, popular culture is full of speculation about and representations of both the near and distant future, perhaps because of contemporary concerns about the current state of global politics, the environment, and technological progress. Speculation about the future has long been a feature of fiction, however, and this course will examine novels, novellas, and short stories that represent imagined futures. We will focus at times on the ways writers imagine human beings reverting to more primal lifestyles and behaviours as a response to the social and environmental conditions of these future worlds. Class readings will introduce students to utopias, dystopias, and various kinds of apocalypse.

19 Studies in Fiction, Poetry & Drama English 09 concentrates on the close reading of three genres fiction, poetry, and drama and examines their defining features. It includes assignments and exercises designed to help students master these skills and to practise them with examples from all three genres. 0 9

20 Instructor N. Earle In this section of Engl. 09, we will study short fiction, poetry, and drama, examining works from a range of time periods and cultural contexts, including our own. The course will emphasize the development of vocabulary and skills for reading, analyzing, and writing about literature. Students will have the opportunity to see and review a live performance of a play performed by the Douglas College theatre program. McMahan, et al, eds. Literature & the Writing Process 003 [33989] Tues/Thur, 0:30am-2:30pm David Lam 004 [33990] Tues/Thur, 2:30-4:30pm David Lam

21 Reading Poetry English 4 emphasizes the close reading of poetry, including the study of poetic forms, and poetic uses of language, the tools used by poets. Students will study a variety of poets, as well as multiple works of selected poets. 4

22 Instructor R. Clark We ll explore poetry about love, social conscience, and meaning. We ll start each theme with Shakespeare (mostly Hamlet), touch on some Romantic and Modern poetry (mostly Keats and Byron), then spend more of our time on contemporary poetry and lyrics. We ll look at traditional forms such as sonnets and odes, as well as poetry that s integrated with music, drama, and film. You do not need to buy a text or course pack. You ll use the readings on ryc.space, and you ll download lyrics and other texts from the Net. 00 [32499] Tues/Thur, 2:30-4:30pm New West 050 [32400] Wednesday, 6:30-9:30pm New West Instructor T. Matson From the zany rhymes of Shel Silverstein, through the masterful voice of John Donne or the lyricism of Sarah McLachlan, poetry is what Rita Dove has called language at its most distilled. Whether playful, argumentative, uplifting or tragic, poetry gives voice to the full, rich range of human emotion, thought and experience. This course is designed to enrich your appreciation and understanding of poetic language. To this end, we will engage in the careful reading of numerous English-language poems (and some songs), primarily from the twentieth-century, developing reading and analytical skills while exploring some of the key poets, poems and themes of the modern era. In addition, we will spend some time focused on the American poet, E.E. Cummings. Kelly, ed. The Seagull Reader: Poems, 3rd ed. 002 [33643] Thursday, 3:30-6:30pm David Lam

23 Reading Plays This course introduces students to the close reading of plays as literature, including discussion of the elements of stagecraft and performance. Plays studied may emphasize a variety of genres (tragedy, comedy, the dramatic monologue), and reflect significant developments in the history of theatre, from its beginnings to the present. 5

24 Instructor J. Allwork Plays are one of the most obviously social and political of the literary forms. Traditionally written for stage performance, they benefit from a live and engaged audience who collectively experience the power of drama to reflect and shape public opinion. The plays we study this term explore the struggles of individuals within communities whose dominant culture and ideology challenge their own. At the root of the challenge are issues of gender, race, power, social hierarchies, definitions of success and conceptions of truth. We explore these issues as they play out in Elizabethan tragedy, nineteenth and twentieth century European and American dramas, and two contemporary Canadian texts, examining the plays on our list as literature, as blueprints for performance and as social commentary of the kind drama does best.

Nicholsfigueredo This semester we will begin with the pre-history of English drama by studying two medieval plays dramatized Bible stories that were staged at festivals. We will move on to Shakespeare s comedy, As You Like It, which we will also see in performance at Bard on the Beach. We will round out the semester by reading two plays being put on at the College, and two plays by aboriginal playwrights. To be announced 050 [33952] Tuesday, 6:30-9:30pm New West

25 SECOND YEAR COURSES Admission to second-year English courses is open to all students of Douglas College who can meet certain prerequisites. To take a second-year course, you must have a Grade Point Average (gpa) of.67 either in any two university-transfer first-year English courses, or a gpa of.67 in one university-transfer first-year English course and one university-transfer Creative Writing course or academic writing course (English 30). Many of the concerns and methods introduced in first-year courses are examined in greater detail in second year. While no specific first-year course is a pre-requisite for any specific second-year course, students are advised that they may benefit from the following sequences of courses. English 06 or 02 will prepare students for the fiction component of 29; poetry in English 4 will prepare you for the demanding poetry requirements of 26 and 27; and English 5 will prepare you for the drama component of 26.

26

27 2 Studies in Canadian Literature English 20 looks at the literature of our own country, and its relationship to the national culture. Students will examine works of Canadian authors, primarily contemporary, and will read works from at least two of the three major genres fiction, poetry, and drama. 0

28 2 Instructor B. Gray In this course, we will look at literary and pop cultural offerings that present notions of national identity, and criticisms of the very idea of nationhood, in a Canadian context. As we read and think together, we will think through what it means to be Canadian in 208, both inside our borders and within the larger global community. Does the Canada of stereotypes good and bad, at home and abroad really exist? What might art and pop culture produced both here and about here tell us about some of our most deeplyheld national myths? And does Canada mean the same thing to every Canadian? Over the course of the semester, we will deconstruct, and perhaps rebuild for ourselves, the expected definitions of Canadian identity.

29 2 British Literature 4th-7th centuries This course is a survey of major representative works from the fourteenth through the seventeenth centuries. It encompasses the literature of the Middle Ages, the reign of Elizabeth i, and the period of the Civil War and Interregnum. The major portion of works studied will be poetry. 6

30 2 6 Instructor N. Phillips Sin. This is an ugly and historically powerful word. Ideas of sin and salvation shaped the medieval Western European worldview. The hierarchy of the seven deadly sins - those sins which would endanger one s soul - was therefore a commonly recurring theme in medieval literature, philosophy, and theology. However, everyone knows that sin is not simply deadly; it can also be fun. The very significance and intensity of the seven deadly sins meant that they had the attraction of the taboo and the forbidden. This semester, we will explore a variety of approaches to the seven deadly sins: intellectual, literary, theological, dirty, funny, fearful, and artistic, to name a few. We will find out what lust, gluttony, greed, sloth, anger, envy, and pride looked like years ago - and discuss what they look like today. Phillips, ed. Coursepack for [35258] Tues/Thur, 2:30-2:30pm New West

31 THIRD-YEAR COURSES Third-year literature courses are for students looking for a focussed, in-depth study of a particular historical era, genre, or writer. They are available to students completing diplomas, Associate of Arts degrees, or Bachelor s degrees, and open to students who meet the pre-requisites, whether they are potential English majors, or students in other disciplines who require upper-division general arts electives. For admission to third-year courses, students must meet the pre-requisites for second-year courses, as well as having successfully completed 45 credit hours. Experience in at least one second-year English course (numbered 2xx) is strongly recommended.

32

33 3 American Literature World War II & Later This course surveys key authors and trends in modern and contemporary American literature since World War II. Close readings of individual works will be accompanied by explorations of the formal innovations achieved in American writing in the period, as well as the unique cultural, political and historical conditions out of which the literature arose, and to which it responded. 4 9

34 3 4 Instructor J. Bourget What does the perfect society look like? What about its opposite? How might the end of all things change how we view these societies and our own? In this course, we will attempt to answer these questions by examining the intersections between and among the utopian, dystopian, and apocalyptic in American science fiction and horror since 945. Starting with a discussion of the anarchist utopias of the 960s and -70s, we will investigate what happens to perfect societies in a postmodern world and explore how the characters in the stories we study react to the eventual realization that true perfection would be terrifying, and the horrific and incomprehensible might be perversely liberating, even as they threaten to destroy everything that matters to us most.

36 G S W Instructor T. Matson This course will introduce students to the history of Western feminism as well as some of the foundational concepts of Women s Studies. To this end, we will read and discuss a selection of relevant literary and academic texts, including some classics key works that helped shape and develop western feminist thought. In particular, we will be examining the historic marginalization and silencing of women, the nature of patriarchy, sexism and gender socialization, the rise of women s liberation movements, and the development and central tenets of feminist consciousness.
