Description of the course:

This course is designed for highly motivated students who like to learn and who are willing to do more than is expected. It is a survey course of American literature -- from its beginnings to modern times. We will start with the Native Americans -- who were here before ANY of us, and whose literature has been overlooked for too long. Eventually, we'll work our way up to the writers of today, although we will visit many other eras along the way. The work is intensive, but not unreasonable, and I am always ready to help you if you struggle. My goal for this class is to help you become better writers (we write A LOT), better readers (we also read A Lot), more responsible for your own learning, and better critical thinkers. And no -- the teacher isn't always right. ..
