ENGL 355 Literature for Adolescents (3 SH)

This course concentrates on literature written for and by adolescent/young adult readers. While relying on works typically classified as young adult literature, the course will also look at literary "classics" found within the curriculum for middle, junior, and senior high classrooms. Models of literary criticism employed within the study of these works will center on reader-response theory. Separate tracks are offered for those students who are English majors and for those who are pursuing English with a Teaching Endorsement. (Spring 2021)
