Eng 214: Studies in World Literature: Frank and Ava
By focusing on one of the most high-profile and explosive couples of the 20th Century and by using international and American works, this course will examine the many ways that writers the world over have created and employed their own Frank Sinatras and Ava Gardners, as individuals and as a couple, in a variety of genres (poetry, fiction, non-fiction, drama). The course will focus on the techniques, expectations, and possibilities that each genre offers to the writers and some of the cultural attitudes that shape their literature.
