AFRC017 - FR SEMINAR TOPICS IN LIT: FREEDOM, FUGITIVITY, AND SERVITUDE IN THE ATLANTIC WORLD

Freshmen Seminars under the title "Topics in Literature" will afford entering students who are considering literary study, the opportunity to explore a particular and limited subject with a professor whose current work lies in that area. Topics may range from the lyric poems of Shakespeare's period to the ethnic fiction of contemporary America. Small class-size will insure all students the opportunity to participate in lively discussions. Students may expect frequent and extensive writing assignments, but these seminars are not writing courses; rather they are intensive introductions to the serious study of literature.
