| Description: | Who are the literary voices of Indiana? How does Indiana literature examine issues of American and Midwest identity? For generations, Hoosier writers have contributed to and shaped an ongoing discourse about geography, belonging, national identity, and community. As a crossroads state, Indiana lives at the epicenter of multiple literary traditions that transcend borders and boundaries. In this course, we will learn about the many Hoosier writers, past and present, that use literature to manifest a literary consciousness for the state. Students will learn to appreciate the role Indiana has played in forging a complex web of stories linked to America's own sense of place. Authors featured will include Kurt Vonnegut, Indiana Poet Laureate Curtis Crisler, Susan Neville, Shari Wagner, and many others. Join us as we learn about the mystique of Indiana. |
