English and Comparative Literature

A survey of the European novel in the era of its cultural dominance. Key concerns: the modern metropolis (London, Paris, St. Petersburg); the figures of bourgeois narrative (parvenus, adulterers, adolescents, consumers) and bourgeois consciousness (nostalgia, ressentiment, sentimentalism, ennui); the impact of journalism, science, economics on the ways novels represented the modern world. Authors to be drawn from: Goethe, Stendhal, Balzac, Dickens, Tolstoy, Dostoevsky, Flaubert, Turgenev, Zola.

This course surveys the literatures of the Americas before the arrival of the Spanish in 1492. Proceeding from Inca political histories to Aztec poetry and philosophy to Ojibwe sacred narratives, this course offers students the opportunity to study and discuss some of the most significant and challenging literary works of the pre-Columbian Americas. Reading closely and in translation, we will consider the difficult questions posed by these texts, such as: What is the world? What is the human’s place in it? How does one find that place? And how does one lose it? Because many of these texts were transcribed during the colonial period, we will trouble the boundary line of “1492” by examining issues of translation, tradition, periodization, hybridization, appropriation, and resurgence. Throughout the semester, we will also explore recent engagements with Indigenous literary and philosophical traditions by reading contemporary poetry and scholarship by Silvia Rivera Cusicanqui, David Damrosch, Louise Erdrich, Jack D. Forbes, Edgar Garcia, Beth Piatote, Arthur Sze, Cecilia Vicuña, Gerald Vizenor, and Sylvia Wynter.

This course focuses on the tumultuous 1930s, which witnessed the growth of anticolonial movements, the coming to power of totalitarian and fascist regimes, and calls for internationalism and a new world vision, among other major developments. Even as fascism laid down its roots in parts of Europe, the struggle for independence from European colonial rule accelerated in Asia and Africa, and former subjects engaged with ideas and images about the shape of their new nations, in essays, fiction, poetry, and theater. Supporters and critics of nationalism existed on both sides of the metropole-colony divide, as calls for internationalism sought to stem the rising tide of ethnocentric thinking and racial particularism in parts of Europe as well as the colonies. Ostensibly a gesture of resistance against imperial control, anti-colonialism also sparked debates about re-visioning gender relations, the place of minorities in the nation, religious difference and secularism, and models of world unity, among other issues. The course aims to consider the intersection of these debates with resistance to 1930s fascism: Did anti- fascist resistance in the metropole draw inspiration from anticolonial struggles? Conversely, did the spectre of fascism and authoritarianism present a cautionary tale to the project of nation-building in former colonies?

We will read works from both the metropole and the colonies to track the crisscrossing of ideas, beginning with writers whose works foreshadowed the convulsive events of the 1930s and beyond (H.G. Wells, E.M. Forster, Rabindranath Tagore), then moving on to writers who published some of their greatest work in the 1930s (Virginia Woolf, Aldous Huxley, George Orwell, Mulk Raj Anand, M.K. Gandhi, Raja Rao, C.L.R. James), and concluding with an author who reassessed the events of the 1930s from a later perspective (George Lamming).

Zombies are everywhere. All over literature, film, and television. To be fair, zombies have been cinematically popular since 1932, but they are really having a moment right now. Moreover, whereas lots of zombie films in the 80s and 90s were low-brow and shlocky, the zombie genre—in both film and TV—has recently made a name for itself as an elite, highly philosophical, and often highly moving genre. So what’s the story? How and why did that happen? Why are zombies so hot right now? Why are major television studios pouring money into megaseries like The Last of Us or The Walking Dead?            

In this class, we will examine the history of the literature and cinema of the undead. By “undead” we will mean embodied revenants who come back to some kind of life or simulacrum of life after death. So, no ghosts, but lots of zombies, ghouls, draugar, vampires, and some cyborgs. Through these revenants and undead “monsters,” writers and filmmakers have asked questions about what it means to be a person, who gets to claim the status of a “human,” and what it says about our relationship to the past, present, and future that the dead keep on rising from their graves. As we’ll see, the zombie genre is extremely varied and internally diverse, but it has been, for as long as it has existed, an important genre for thinking through forms of inequality, violence, dehumanization, and existential dread.

I warn you: there is material on this syllabus that is revolting in many different ways. So buckle your seatbelt. If you’re not up for some serious gore, some very offensive ideas, and some troubling philosophies, you may want to take another class.

This course will explore the historical category of Resistance Literature, its theory and practice, its transnational expansion, and its ongoing relevance today. Originally proposed by Palestinian author and political activist Ghassan Kanafani in 1967, “Resistance Literature” named an activist practice of writing that sought to challenge discriminatory state practices, social policies, power structures and lived injustices, as well as to reshape the ideological frameworks that enabled official political structures of oppression in the institutional forms of colonialism (settler and otherwise), neocolonialism, authoritarianism, apartheid, systemic racisms, ethnonationalisms, gendered exclusions, and religious discrimination. Examining diverse genres such as novels, poetry, plays, memoirs, films, we will analyze the literary and political strategies, motifs, and modes by which authors around the world over the past century have attempted to use their art to resist oppression, to mobilize public opinion, and to advocate for social change. Collectively, we will attempt to identify literary and formal commonalities across these literatures to identify generic characteristics of Resistance Literature that might distinguish it from Literature in general.

This class will introduce graduate students to the field of material texts and probe its expanding limits. Since the 1990s, study of the so-called “material text” has been a growing methodology in literary studies, particularly (though certainly not exclusively) in premodern and early modern fields. The “material text” is usually defined as the text plus the writing surface, binding, collocated texts, marginal jottings, illustrations, and any other paratexts that might accompany them: in other words, “the whole book.” The thesis of the study of material texts is that full understanding of literary works can only come about by taking these elements into account along with the text itself. This basic argument has generated a huge amount of productive scholarship that engages closely with manuscripts and printed matter, and it’s where our course will begin.

You may have noticed that the title of this course features a forward slash. In that forward slash is the thesis we will explore together for the bulk of the semester: that it is time for a more expansive definition of the “material text” that encompasses things that are, materially speaking, non-bookish. Yet many of these artefacts are part of the same bodies of narrative as the texts literary scholars lovingly appreciate. The course asks, then, how literary history is inflected by drawing on more expansive material as potential text. The test case for this question, which we will explore together, will be the corpus of medieval and early modern narrative tapestries. But you will be invited throughout the course to apply its methods to your own field of interest, particularly through your book review and your seminar paper. Moreover, though the course centers on medieval literature and textiles with inscriptions in English, French, and Latin, it also aims to instill the critical skills of literary criticism: debate, comparison, and keen-eyed evaluation of others’ arguments, both in class discussions and written assignments. 

Reading knowledge of (Old) French, Latin, and Middle English will come in handy, as will any other foreign language competencies – but these are not prerequisites. 

This class is conceived as a series of sustained close readings of Édouard Glissant’s oeuvre—his poetry, novels, manifestoes, treatises, and philosophical essays. Over the last decade in particular, Glissant’s work has become increasingly central across an extraordinary range of disciplines, including literary theory, critical theory, critical race theory, performance studies, postcolonial studies, Indigenous studies—as witnessed, for example, by collections of essays by Australian Aboriginal scholars engaging his thought—and even fields such as architecture and design, as demonstrated by recent exhibitions devoted to his work.

This seminar will focus on theorizing the particular contours of knowledge production among politically radical African diasporic intellectuals in the twentieth century. We will read some of the key texts of the Black Radical Tradition with particular attention to the relations between politics and poesis, and to the ways that the exigencies of revolutionary social transformation have provoked methodological innovation in historiography. The course is not only meant to serve as an introduction to that tradition of thought, however, but more pointedly as a consideration of the implications of black radicalism for theories of the archive. To this end the class will meet in the Rare Book and Manuscript Library, and students will be expected to pursue their own hands-on research in some of the relevant holdings at Columbia, including the papers of Hubert Harrison, Alexander Gumby, C. L. R. James, Yuri Kochiyama, and Amiri Baraka. While we will use a variety of archival materials (including scrapbooks, manuscript drafts, typescripts, handwritten notes and outlines, diaries, correspondence, audio and video recordings, photographs, etc.) to contextualize these authors’ published work, our main aim in turning to the collections will be to approach these intellectuals as collectors and archivists themselves, in a manner that highlights their archival practice—their own commitment to historical documentation, classification, and preservation—as integral to their political radicalism.

What are ghosts? Why are we haunted by them? And why are we so drawn to telling stories about these hauntings? In this class, we will read ghost stories from the 17th century through the present day; in the process, we will examine what these stories reveal about our own preoccupations, fears, and desires. Writers and readers turn to ghost stories for horror and suspense, for sure, but also because they’re a powerful medium for reckoning with history and memory—with the past’s hold over the present—particularly when it comes to violence, loss, oppression, and trauma. Ghost stories engage with issues of race, class, gender, and sexuality; with social otherness; with marginalization. Ghost stories stage problems of justice, vengeance, and guilt. Ghost stories trouble the nature of the body, and the meaning of (and boundaries between) life and death. Ghost stories lend themselves both to fear and to laughter, both to questions and to answers. While exploring all of these topics and themes, we will also consider the trope of storytelling itself, which figures prominently in so many works of the genre. What is wrapped up in the gesture of telling a story, and in the ways, contexts, and reasons in and for which these stories get told? Readings (subject to change) include works by Shakespeare, Charles Dickens, Edith Wharton, Henry James, Shirley Jackson, Helen Oyeyemi, Maxine Hong Kingston, Toni Morrison, Oscar Wilde, and others.

This First-Year course will engage with literary expressions of the universally interesting topic of relationships. Tony Tanner in his Adultery in the Novel characterizes marriage as “the structure which supports all structure.” Contemporary critics have seen marriage as essential to maintaining the “family values” of the bourgeoisie; feminists and Marxists have challenged the economic assumptions of patriarchally-defined marriage. Folklorists have treated marriage as the endpoint of the search for a safe domestic space. We will touch on this subject, but will also turn to writing about other indispensable relationships that, increasingly, fill our lives. Animals and botanicals—and our relationship with nature—have become so obviously  Important in the past ten years that they deserve to underpin our core values, too.

Starting with classic fairy tales and moving on to short fictions, contemporary American poetry, an affectionate study of the psyches of trees, and brief essays on animals we live with, this course will deliver an exportable cluster of ideas that may change our lives.

This course covers the second half of William Shakespeare’s career, attending to the major dramatic genres in which he wrote. It will combine careful attention to the plays’ poetic richness with a focus on their theatrical inventiveness, using filmed productions of many of the plays to explore their staging possibilities. At the same time, we will use the plays as thematic springboards to explore the cultural forces – pertaining to, among others things, politics, class, religion, gender, and race – that shaped the moment in which Shakespeare lived and worked.

       Why does literature affect us as it does, why might you want to understand its history, strategies, and meaning, and how exactly do you go about that? This course won’t give you the answer, because there is no single answer. It will instead point the way toward the multitude of possible answers, giving you a variety of critical tools for exploring these questions, and deepening your powers as a thinker, reader, and writer.
            The course consists of weekly lectures by department faculty members (ENGL 2000) and small weekly seminars with advanced doctoral candidates (ENGL 2001). The lectures will introduce you to texts from across literary history and in various genres (poetry, drama, prose narrative, etc.), giving you an opportunity to learn from and get to know our renowned faculty members. The intimate seminar setting will give you an opportunity to delve further into these texts and techniques, debate their meaning with one another and an expert guide, and engage in exercises that advance your critical writing and interpretive skills, putting into practice what you’ve learned. You will encounter the wide variety of critical approaches taken by our faculty, your seminar leader, and the discipline at large, while learning to expand upon these approaches and make them your own.
            The course is required for English majors and minors (who should take it as early as possible in their Columbia careers), but it is for everyone: advanced students of literature or those new to literary study; committed majors or those still exploring; anyone seeking the excitement and immersion this course offers.
            (Note: Students who register for ENGL UN2000 must also register for one of the sections of ENGL UN2001.)

This course will introduce some of the most fascinating texts of the first eight hundred years of English literature, from the period of Anglo-Saxon rule through the Hundred Years’ War and beyond—roughly, 700–1500 CE. We’ll hit on some texts you’ve heard of – Beowulf and selections from Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales – while leaving time for some you may not have encountered – Marie de France’s Lais and Margery of Kempe’s Book. Along the way, we’ll also hone skills of reading, writing, and oral expression crucial to appreciating and discussing literature in nuanced, supple ways.

If you take this course, you’ll discover how medieval literature is both a mirror and a foil to modern literature. You’ll explore the plurilingual and cross-cultural nature of medieval literary production and improve (or acquire!) your knowledge of Middle English. Plus, you’ll flex your writing muscles with three papers (one of which can be replaced by a creative project, if you like) and discussion posts where you’ll have the chance to pursue your own interests.

(Lecture). This course examines the works of the major English poets of the period 1830-1900. We will pay special attention to Alfred Tennyson and Robert Browning, and their great poetic innovation, the dramatic monologue. We will also be concentrating on poems by Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Gerard Manley Hopkins, Christina Rossetti, Matthew Arnold, A. E. Housman, and Thomas Hardy.

Why does literature turn to photography? In 1931, Walter Benjamin prophesied that “captions [would] become the essential component of pictures” — but just as much as text has accompanied photographs, literary works for the past 150 years have not only commented on, but also incorporated photographs as part of their creative project. Over the course of the semester, we will look at a set of literary texts (with an emphasis on poetry) in which photography plays a central part, from Breton’s surrealist novel Nadja to Eve Ewing’s 1919, an exploration of the 1919 Chicago Race Riot. Together, we will ask how writing and photography can work together to document history, construct new kinds of intimacies between author, subject, and audience, and play with the limits of creative form. We will also take a field trip to the Guggenheim’s Taryn Simon exhibit, to see how a contemporary artist uses the interplay of text and image to comment on our world today. The course has no prerequisites, and fulfills the New Media, Poetry, and Comparative requirements for the English major.

Over the course of the semester, we will journey through a series of paired texts, touching on themes of the city, experimentation, intimacy, war, and archive. As we go from pair to pair, we will begin to hear echoes of these themes resonate across works we read earlier on and works we are just encountering, from Jacob A. Riis’s 1890s record of New York slums and André Breton’s surreal 1920s Paris, to Hervé Guibert’s fragile domestic spaces and Don Mee Choi’s reappropriation of her father’s photographs. We will end with the film The Unbearable Lightness of Being, which brings together some of the strands running through our syllabus: the personal and the political, the gaze and the viewer, the past and the future.

At a moment when ChatGPT is transforming our relationship to writing, this class explores the place of the machine in the history of literature as fear, fantasy, and creative function: from literary representations of writing machines to automated textual production. Contemporary anxieties about machines usurping creativity will be shown to have ancient origins. We will move from Plato’s suspicion of inscription to Annie Dorsen’s AI-generated productions of Hamlet, via a survey of twentieth-century avant-garde attempts to write like a machine, from Modernist automatic writing and Dadaist cut-ups to postmodern hypertext. We will cover movements including Futurism, Surrealism, Dada, Fluxus, and Oulipo, reading works by Gertrude Stein, Mina Loy, Italo Calvino, John Cage, Alison Knowles, David Foster Wallace, and more. We will also read texts written by machines, including RACTER, ELIZA, PARRY and Claude. As well as reading, we will be playing early video games, chatting to some of the first chatbots, viewing machinic artworks, and listening to constraint-driven music. This class will widen our knowledge and critical faculties as readers, but also as writers: we will experiment with automatic writing, use games and constraints to generate text, and reflect on collaborating with writing machines.

There are no prerequisites for this course.

In the eighteenth century, a new and sensational kind of entertainment appeared: the novel. Disparaged and revered, this revolutionary form of storytelling soon subordinated other artistic genres and remains the single most important influence on modern-day film and television. To puzzle out how this came to be, we will place the development of the novel in the long eighteenth century within the history of art, philosophy, science, psychology, literary theory, sociology –even dance history-- by using four of Jane Austen’s novels to explore the narrative ingredients of what we recognize today as romantic comedy: adventure, the novel of manners, sentimentality, and gothic melodrama. (In addition to Jane Austen, readings will include Defoe, Diderot, Haywood, Mackenzie, Radcliffe, and the anonymous author of The Woman of Colour.)
