Designed as foundations to the study of literature, this course will examine the ongoing debates surrounding “What is literature?” and “What is NOT literature?” by focusing on various texts within their respective contexts. It will discuss the ways in which creative literature directly relates to the personal, social, political and spiritual aspects of people’s life. Here, the word “English” is used as the name for world resources of languages, cultures and peoples, hence approachable to national/international and global/local repositioning. This course will also pay attention to some key vocabularies and primary critical skills to access a variety of literary genres across times and a handful of literary theories (introductory in nature) by means of critical reading.
