LITR240 - Identity in Literature and Film

Credits: 3

This course explores the theme of the quest for the self, as expressed both in literature and film. Additionally, the course focuses on the two similar but divergent media of literature and film as vehicles for dramatizing character and character development. In literary works, films, and film adaptations, we will trace protagonists’ struggles with their own inner demons as well as the evils of their society as they move toward maturity and an articulate inner life. Four to five literary works will be examined, both as texts and in film versions or adaptations. This is an elective course.

Prerequisites: None
3 class hours a week
