LFM Literary Forms and Movements

This course covers two foundational schemes regarding the study of literature: 1) Forms, and 2) Movements. The term “forms” refer to the study of literary genres and their sub-types in such a way as to introduce the students to their structures and styles with its focus on the following: 1) Poetry; 2) Fiction; 3) Drama; 4) Prose/Non-fiction; and 5) Short Story. The term “movement” is rather loosely used to characterize literary texts produced in different cultures under the influence of or for the propagation of certain ideas as their hallmarks/signatures. The course has been designed to intellectually groom the students for a broad understanding of the major literary movements in the history of literature, especially British and American: Idealism (Greek), Renaissance/Early Modern, Neoclassicism, Enlightenment, Romanticism, Victorianism, Raphaelitism, Realism, Transcendentalism, Modernism, Colonialism, Symbolism, Imagist and post-Colonialism, Feminism and post-Feminism.
