Curating 20th Century English Literature
Course Details
Anthologies of literature were important in identifying and establishing new communities of writers in the 20th century, including those marginalized due to their race, gender, and sexuality. Many major 20th century US authors, such as Langston Hughes, Adrienne Rich, and Michael Chabon, were developed through anthologies. This course aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of how US literature developed over the 20th century by reading works from a diverse range of authors.

The best lesson I have had so far was at the beginning of the course when we studied Game Theory, and when we did presentations in class about shops or platforms that we had to imagine ourselves.
The best thing about the Medicine course was the interactivity of the lectures. My tutor was really interested in the subject, so I always felt like I could go up to her and ask her questions, whether they were about what we were learning or about other areas of biotechnology.
The course gave me an insight into how to make arguments in support of or against certain positions which is useful in law and the tutor assisted me in how to structure these arguments. I've enjoyed the company of having a roommate and that you make so many new friends.
