Transfers ToUC and CSUCal-GETC Area 3BDescriptionLIT46H examines the literature of a historically underrepresented ethnic group whose specific concerns are often unaddressed by dominant culture. Special emphasis will be placed on the following: (1) the historical and social conditions fostering literary production (2) the relation between this literature and the traditional canon; (3) the way this literature challenges and broadens the traditional canon; (4) the way this literature defines the cultural and personal identity of subjects claiming ethnicity; and (4) the ways this literature addresses the perception of ethnic culture within the dominant culture. The honors course is enriched through extensive reading in primary and secondary sources, a formal presentation, an essay, and/or an annotated bibliography. Credit in either LIT 46 or 46H, but not both.
