Haiku 'N' You: Meets for five weeks, seven days a week, five minutes per session.
The "The": The Dream of the Rood, The Name of the Rose, The Catcher in the Rye: examine how "the" influences and informs literature and culture, with brief glances at "a" and "an" and the occasional outbreak of "the-lessness."
Survey of Surveys: Study works selected at random from every Norton anthology ever published.
Concepts of Gum: How did Bazooka Joe comics influence "The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock"? Could Isabel Archer walk and chew gum at the same time? If Captain Ahab and Moby Dick got into a bubble-blowing contest, who would win? And what's that stuck under your seat?
Concepts of Glum: Lots of gloomy Russian novels plus The Saddest Music in the World; extra credit for convincing but unsuccessful suicide attempts.
Concepts of Slums: Charles Dickens, Stephen Crane, and Don DeLillo walk into a bar--and immediately get mugged.
Concepts of Conceptualization: What? What?
