This course focuses on the oral interpretation of poetry and prose, with a special emphasis on literature by and about cultural groups in the United States, including African-Americans, Asian-Americans, European-Americans, Jewish-Americans, Latino/a-Americans, Arab-Americans, Indigenous peoples of the United States and others. Through the process of oral interpretation, students will analyze works of literature, discover a personal connection to the material, and share their emotional and intellectual creation — using voice and body — with an audience. Students will learn to appreciate the similarities and differences among cultures and how culture affects the author’s voice by studying and performing multicultural literature.
