LIT2000 - Fall 2025 - Chiodo

This course introduces students to key terminology, concepts, and methodologies for studying complex literature. It examines a broad range of late twentieth- and twenty-first-century literature, focusing heavily on the themes of modernity, identity, gender, and dystopia. Secondary readings from various theoretical frameworks will aid in analyzing the assigned novels. The course provides a foundation in literary analysis for non-majors and is strongly recommended as preparation for upper-level (3000- or 4000-level) coursework in the field.
