ELIT 143

Literature in its Contexts

ELIT 143 is the foundation that teaches you to read literature as something that always sits inside history, religion, politics, and myth rather than floating free of them. You'll work through a mix of canonical excerpts (the Bible, Homer, Ovid) alongside British poems, a Gothic novel (Frankenstein anchors the second half), and short fiction, writing critical essays and a portfolio that practice close reading with contextual awareness. As a first-semester ELIT requirement, it builds the historical and interpretive vocabulary you'll lean on in every period-specific course that follows, from Renaissance drama to Modernism.
