ENGL 20663 - Why Read Literature?

Why do people read literature, and in what ways might it matter? This course explores the personal, civic, and cultural significance of reading literature through assigned readings and a service learning component. Students will thus explore literary works and theories about literature's significance in multiple contexts: in individual reading and reflection, in group discussion s in the classroom, and in dialogue with community residents in the civic context of Fort Worth.
