HUM-1110: Literature: Reading Cultures

This course explores 4500 years of storytelling from the long-ago and far-away worlds of the Sumerians and early Greeks, up to contemporary writers whose stories are drawn from the here and now of life in Los Angeles. We will tackle this broad topic in three stages, with specific sessions devoted to each stage: The ancient myth and epic narrative in the stories of Inanna’s Descent to the Underworld and Perseus, the myth of modern individualism from Faust to Frankenstein, and the emergence of voices from the margins in modern and contemporary Literature.
