This course focuses on literary and historical Romanticism, focusing on concepts of nature and place in nineteenth-century writings, as well as on Romantic Ecology’s relationship to the American Environmental Movement.

William Blake: Text and Image
In this course, we explore the particulars ways in which Blake’s books challenge us as readers of literature, as consumers of cultural products, and as political thinkers. We read Blake's works, look at his engraving and etching processes, and make our own prints in a simulation of his technique in the Fine Arts Studio.
