Literature, Revolution and Rebellion in the Long Nineteenth Century

Description

This course is designed to explore literary responses to the phenomenon of revolution and anti-colonial rebellion across the long nineteenth century. Students will be encouraged to reflect on ways in which texts of rebellion - or rebellious texts - inform a larger conversation about the relationship between literature and history, and to think about what happens when moments of intense political crisis migrate into fictional or poetic form.
