2025 Winter Regular Semester
ENGL 221/Lecture/A - Reading Politics: Class and Ideology | Credits 3.00
English 221 will examine ideas of class as expressed in texts of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. At a time when class distinctions determined and restricted virtually every aspect of daily life, writers reflected, reinforced, and also undermined those distinctions in their work. We will use critical tools of late twentieth-century writings on class and ideology to explore the earlier texts, with a view to understanding cultural representations of class and class relations.. What does it mean to “belong” to a particular class? How did one’s “station in life” control one’s fate? How is literature itself a product of class? Karl Marx pointed out, “The ideas of the ruling class are in every epoch the ruling ideas,” and this course will investigate how those ruling ideas were conveyed.
