Using an interdisciplinary approach, this survey course seeks to expose students to a wide range of U.S. authors that examine the paradox between ideas of nationhood and a sense of belonging. Students learn to make distinctions between the wide range of literary and intellectual movements that influenced localized forms of storytelling, popular fiction, performance texts, and other cultural productions.
