ENG 105 CRITICAL READING AND WRITING IN THE UNIVERSITY COMMUNITY (4 credits) English 105 is a four-credit-hour survey course that introduces you to critical reading and writing in the academic community. Through the semester, we practice the reading process: generating questions or deriving answers from texts; summarizing texts, identifying examples, drawing inferences, and making logical or comparative connections; organizing information in a variety of ways; seeing and learning rhetorical skills used by effective writers; and evaluating the merits of what we read. At the same time, we practice the writing process; identifying audience and purpose; gathering or finding ideas; organizing and interrelating those ideas for readers; drafting in order to develop, support, and illustrate ideas; revising from trial-and-error and in light of peer input; editing for clarity and accuracy. Course fee required.

ENG 130 THE WORLD OF LITERATURE (3 credits) (#6461) MWF 10:20-11:10 am Flower Darby What does it mean to be a hero? What does it mean to be human? Where do the two intersect? In English 130, we will study a variety of literature from the three basic genres: poetry, fiction, and drama. We will examine works from a wi de range of time periods and cultures in an attempt to better understand the creative expression, through written mea ns, of the human condition. Our aim will be to draw connections between the diverse selections, specifically studying what it means to be human, what it means to be a hero, and whether the two have anything to do with each other. Th is course will pay attention, through assessment, to the four essential skills of critical reading, critical thinking, effectiv e writing, and effective oral communication.

ENG 211 PRINCIPLES OF WRITTEN ARGUMENTATION (3 credits) (#1334) TTh 9:35-10:50 Greg Glau During the semester, we will discuss what argument means in our society. We will read many examples of arguments, and you will be able to differentiate the types, methods, and conventions of argumentation in articles you read and write. We will look at various ways of delivering argument, and thoroughly cover audience analysis. Your goal is to improve your argumentative writing skill for use in any discipline or situation. The central question for the semester will be, “Is everything an argument?” By evaluating your own habits, beliefs and interactions, along with current issues and events, we hope to definitively answer the preceding question.

The subjects covered in class will most likely spur emotional and logical debate, and should be quite fun. Keep in mind that all opinions are to be valued and respected. You don’t have to agree with anyone else. You do have to respect everyone else and keep anything you say respectful. I don’t want to coddle people who are “offended” if anybody says anything they don’t happen to agree with. On the other hand, I don’t want to allow anybody to say hurtful, obscene, or derogatory things. Sometimes, this is a hard balance to find. As we grow as a class, your opinions may change or may become stronger, so it is important that we provide an atmosphere where everyone feels comfortable sharing their views and ideas. This is a Liberal Studies course in the Aesthetic and Humanistic Inquiry distribution block. Courses in this block involve students in the study of the human condition through philosophical inquiry and analysis of the various forms of creative expression. These courses help students develop an understanding of the relationship between context and human creative expression, major conceptual frameworks utilized to make sense of the creative arts, and how human experience and values are expressed through creative endeavors. Students will also develop their capacities for analysis and ethical reasoning along with an understanding of the multiple facets of the human condition. The mission of the Liberal Studies Program at Northern Arizona University is to prepare students to live responsible, productive, and creative lives as citizens of a dramatically changing world. To accomplish the mission of Liberal Studies, Northern Arizona University provides a program that challenges students to gain a deeper understanding of the natural environment and the world’s peoples, to explore the traditions and legacies that have created the dynamics and tensions that shape the world, to examine their potential contributions to society, and thus to better determine their own places in that world. Through the program students acquire a broad range of knowledge and develop essential skills for professional success and life beyond graduation.

Through the program students acquire a broad range of knowledge and develop essential skills for professional success and life beyond graduation.

ENG 358 ANCIENT LITERATURE (3 credits) (#5622) TTh 11:10-12:25 pm Jay Farness Catalog Description: Representative forms of ancient literature with special attention to epic and tragedy. More Description: This is a class in ancient or classical Greek and Roman literature—the literature of gods and heroes, of battles and backstabbings, of pompous men and designing women, of nature's power and humans' restless ingenuity. Our study foregrounds epic and tragedy, the two original forms of literary expression in the western world. The excellences of ancient narrative and ancient drama have left the strange illusion that literature was perfected in its beginnings, that it was over when it began. In studying this literature we try to fit creative expression to its background culture and consciousness. This means that we explore the origins of drama in urban festival practices, for example, and the origins of epic in tribal institutions; that we contrast the values of aristocratic society with the ideology of the democratic city; and that we compare the social prejudices of the many with the enlightenment or disillusionment of selected individuals. We also study how an ancient literary tradition counters the powerful influence of tragedy and epic with the liberating perspectives of comedy, personal song, mock-epic, and tragicomedy. Class format emphasizes close reading and discussion. Assignments include informal papers, two essays, and three essay- tests.

ENG 431C SEMINAR IN BRITISH LITERATURE (3 credits) (#5625) MW 2:00-3:15 pm Donelle Ruwe The British Romantic era, which is sometimes called Age of Revolutions (1780-1835), was a time of extraordinary national crisis. After the Bastille was stormed, and the French monarchy toppled, England and France entered the longest war in modern history, 22 years of bloodshed and economic devastation. The 1815 eruption of Mount Tambora—the largest volcanic eruption in recorded history—killed over 70,000 people and coated the skies of Europe with ash. It caused international crop failures and animal deaths, followed by the worst famine of the nineteenth century. The summer of 1816 became known as the "Year Without a Summer." In August 1819, British cavalry charged into a crowd of 75,000 peaceful demonstrators who were demanding government reform, and in an event that soon become known as the Peterloo Massacre, 15 people were killed and 500 injured. A third of the casualties were women. As Charles Dickens would later describe this era, it was the best of times, it was the worst of times. Our class will focus on British literature written during this period, and we will read texts against the backdrop of cultural and political events that rocked the stability of the British empire. We’ll read dramas and novels that excoriate government and religious hypocrisy. We’ll read arguments for women’s rights, animal rights, and the freedom of British slaves. We’ll read texts written from the point of view of opium addicts, madwomen, madmen, and prostitutes. And, finally, we’ll read works celebrating the emotional peace granted by the beauties of nature and the joys of mountain climbing, sailing, and plant gathering. Students will prepare short reading responses and a final essay. Prerequisite: (ENG 105 or HON 190 or English Placement Test Results (PLACE 60+)) and 12 hours of ENG-English coursework CAP

In addition to studying texts by authors who have written exemplary works of American gothic literature—Edgar Allan Poe, Edith Wharton, H. P. Lovecraft, Shirley Jackson, Richard Matheson, and Stephen King—we will also look at American variations on the genre.

ENG 523 BRITISH AUTHORS (3 credits) (#5636) Th 4:00-6:30 pm Mara Reisman This course will focus on the works of contemporary British authors Julian Barnes and Angela Carter and investigate the ways in which their literature is inextricably linked to social, cultural, and political issues. “There is a tendency to underplay, even to devalue, the experience of the 1960s, especially for women,” writes Angela Carter, “but towards the end of that decade there was a brief period of public philosophical awareness that occurs only very occasionally in human history; when, truly, it felt like Year One, that all that was holy was in the process of being profaned and we were attempting to grapple with the real relations between human beings.” Carter’s description emphasizes the cultural and social potential represented by the 1960s. Not only could people break with the old order, and with old relationships; they could rebuild. It was a time when people could, and were on some level expected to, reinvent their social roles. In terms of literature, this reinvention took the form of challenging and rewriting familiar and established narratives. Driven by their interest in investigating and exposing how cultural narratives gain and maintain credibility, authority, and power, contemporary British writers like Barnes and Carter write fiction that upsets conventional modes of thought and disrupts socially ingrained power structures. Selected works of important British authors. Letter grade only. May be repeated for up to 6 units of credit with different content.

ENG 526 ADVANCED PROFESSIONAL WRITING (3 credits) (#5906) Online Greg Larkin At higher levels in both the academic & business worlds, an important form of writing is the published research study. These studies may take many different forms, in accordance with the demands and accepted conventions of each particular discipline & the meticulous "guidelines for submissions" found in most professional journals. Students taking their first graduate course in the area of professional & technical writing often have mistaken notions of what is involved. Students motivated to be become better writers often think that they need a class in grammar. While studying grammar will probably make you a better grammarian, it will not necessarily make you a better writer. Ditto with editing. The writing skills we will study in this class are beyond grammar and editing. This course will include some tutorials--as well as some basic exercises on certain key elements of the writing of a publishable research report. But mainly, in this class we will concentrate on these objectives:  an understanding of the components of a research report  the ability to conceive, plan, & develop a research report or capstone project  rhetorical analysis to understand the purpose of a research document & who the audience is  document design for better readability & navigation  principles of visual rhetoric  skills to integrate visuals Area: Professional Writing Counts toward either the MA in LTPW, MA in Professional Writing or the Certificate in Professional Writing Prerequisite: Admission into either the MA in LTPW, MA in Professional Writing, or the Certificate in Professional Writing programs.

ENG 553 SHAKESPEARE (3 credits) (#5959) W 4:00-6:30 pm Jay Farness Catalog Description: Intensive study of selected works. More Description of This Particular Course: This course studies selected plays in light of current critical practices for interpreting Shakespeare's text, drama, and settings. These plays will probably include Richard II, Henry IV, Part One, King Lear, The Tempest, and at least two others in part determined by class preferences. Expect something that is both elementary and advanced. The course will introduce you to or remind you about the celebrated features of Shakespeare as we know him (or it or them!) from stage and, especially, page. But the course should also make you mindful of disconcerting conflicts between stage and page and so challenge and stretch your sense of close interpretation and its contexts. I hope you'll need to read and think hard and often and, because it's Shakespeare, have fun doing it. Assignments include informal writing and three essays.

ENG 553 SHAKESPEARE (3 credits) (#5885) Online Eleni Pilla ENG 553 SHAKESPEARE is a graduate course which offers an in-depth study of a wide range of topics (selfhood, sexuality, gender, parental relations, authority, justice, war, the environment) in a variety of Shakespearean plays. We will sample from all of the Shakespearean genres: comedy, history, tragedy, and romance. Students will have the rare opportunity of exploring Shakespearean plays that are less frequently taught, such as Titus Andronicus and Pericles. We will also engage with theoretical approaches to the plays. Students will be encouraged to contextualize the plays in the historical, social and cultural milieu in which they were produced but also to think critically about how these early modern texts may be of relevance to us today.

ENG 558 ESL METHODS AND MATERIALS: LISTENING & SPEAKING (3 credits) (#1031) TTh 12:45-2:00 pm Okim Kang This course, a core requirement for the MA/TESL degree, provides an overview of ESL/EFL methodology focusing on aural/oral skills (that is, listening comprehension and speaking).

ENG 569 PROJECT MANAGEMENT AND DOCUMENTATION DESIGN (3 credits) (#5887) Online Greg Larkin Project management in the business sense is a professional specialization often associated with commercial construction projects. Our course focuses on the management of publications projects. Most writing courses focus on a single writer producing a document that is under her control. It is her document. Here the focus is on developing documents that are team produced & responsive to product development (e.g., software manuals). There are 3 levels to our topic of document management production:  Hackos offers a long conceptual walk-through of the project management process applied to document production & control.  DeMarco offers a description of the climate, background, & values that nurture the kind of teams that Hackos talks about managing.  The third level is missing from our course because it is too detailed. Those who are especially attracted to the job of document project management may wish to learn to use Microsoft's Project Management software. English majors are not the only ones to discover what they mean or how they want to organize a document or project through the process of developing & writing the project. By the end of development, product managers are often ready to go back & do the project again the right way by reorganizing, rewriting, etc. Project management was developed to curb this expensive process that requires doing the project twice. English majors are familiar with the process of narrative development. We often literally do not know what we think about an issue until we have to write an essay about it. Technical writing in general, & document project managers in particular, forbid professional writers to use narrative development. This course is about how to use planning techniques, instead of narrative methods, to write technical documents. Texts: Hackos, Joann T. Managing Your Documentation Projects.

ENG 576 LITERATURE FOR ADOLESCENTS (3 credits) (#4408) T 4:30-7:00 pm Jean Boreen This course focuses on Young Adult Literature and how you, as a future teacher, conceptualize how to use YA lit in the classroom by itself and with classic texts, how YA Lit can be used as a bridge to help students understand a variety of i ssues and literary concepts in both literature written for them as well as in the classic texts most school curricula expe ct students to master. To accomplish this, we will consider the thought-processes behind the development of the class room teacher's philosophy for teaching literature and how this, in turn, determines the choices s/he makes for facilitati ng students' learning. Another feature of the course is to conduct a survey of young adult literature. The class will ma ke critical evaluations of the literature as well as investigate strategies for encouraging student reading. Finally, we wil l explore the use of Nancie Atwell's reading workshops in secondary classrooms, and you will all take part in an Atwell- modeled workshop that I will facilitate with you during the months of February and March. NOTE: This course also cont ains one of the signature assignments you must complete to graduate from the English Education program at NAU.

ENG 631 ARGUMENTATION (3 credits) (#6516) Online Laura Gray-Rosendale This course examines how understandings of argumentation and rhetoric have altered throughout history. We will study how the art of persuasion by examining the work of The Sophists, Plato, Aristotle, the Romans, Contemporary Rhetoricians, and Postmodern Rhetoricians. This historical trajectory will expose changes and developments in how argumentation has been perceived over time. Importantly, English 631 takes a rather different approach than other graduate courses that you may have taken in the past. Since understanding the history of argumentation and rhetoric is a very time intensive enterprise, we will concentrate our efforts on three major tasks: reading, short writing assignments, and discussion. The short writing assignments and discussion are meant to allow students to address theory and history but also to apply this knowledge to everyday teaching and professional writing situations. To allow room for this intensive theoretical and practical inquiry, there will be no final written project required for the course.

The course texts will be: James A. Herrick. The History and Theory of Rhetoric: An Introduction. 4th edition. New York: Pearson, 2005 and Patricia Bizzell and Bruce Herzberg.

You will move through an inquiry process that stimulates your thinking, engages you in authentic tasks, and demands demonstration of mastery. When you design your project, you will encounter (and struggle with) the central concepts and principles of rhetoric, writing, and literacy. In the process of completing your projects, you will enhance and apply your skills in successful communication and presentation skills, organization and time management skills, research and inquiry skills, self- assessment and reflection skills, and leadership skills. You will be able to reflect upon your own ideas and opinions, exercise voice and choice, and make decisions that affect project outcomes and the learning process in general. You can also work within your communities while seeing the positive effect of your project. Your performance is assessed on an individual basis, and takes into account the quality of the product produced, the depth of content understanding demonstrated, and the contributions made to the ongoing process of project realization.

ENG 685 GRADUATE RESEARCH (3 credits) Meeting Time: Individually scheduled meetings with student peers and professor In this class, students will identify a literary work to be the focus of an intensive research project. Students will work through the stages of independent, graduate-level research from selecting a text edition to polishing their work for publication. Students will keep a close-reading journal, use Cline Library resources to identify primary and secondary sources, and publication outlets such as journals or conferences. Students will create a conference abstract, a sophisticated annotated bibliography, and a formal MLA-style essay. Students will meet with the professor regularly to discuss research progress, and students will also be assigned to a peer-editing group and a research-buddy group. By the end of the semester, each student will have crafted a potentially publishable paper and will submit their work to the peer-reviewed journal The Explicator or ANQ. The intent of this ENG 685 course is to allow students to pursue their individual research interests with the support of peers and faculty. This class is appropriate for beginning or advanced graduate students. Beginning graduate students will have a chance to practice research skills that will be useful throughout their graduate careers, and more advanced graduate students will be able to craft a formal paper that is publishable in a peer-reviewed journal or that could be delivered at a scholarly conference. Department consent required. Letter grade or pass-fail. No repeat limit.
