Introduction to English Studies
Amanda Peebles

As an introductory course, this class will act as a guide that will introduce you to English studies and the opportunities the field can provide. The course reviews the history of the discipline in ways that are meaningful and accessible, and we will talk about current practices and areas of inquiry for the field, including broadening the concept of writing to include other forms of writing and media that you may not have previously considered. The course will also help you to acquire skills that will be useful for you in other courses such as: annotation, analysis, drafting, workshop and peer review, and revision. You will also develop vocabulary for specialization in the major throughout our discussions and readings in this course.
