ENGL 3360 - Special Topics in Creative Writing - Writing Intensive

Hours: 3
In this course, we will investigate how writers build on popular culture and respond to their times. To achieve this aim, we will begin with by looking at the pandemic and analyzing what kinds of works audiences have been “bingeing” since lockdown. Additionally, we will look at examples of contemporary literature (poems, novels, plays, and films) that are rooted in specific trends in pop-culture. From there, you will have the opportunity to perform an in-depth study of a work you loved over the past year (game, film, book, anime, album, and so on) and write a creative or analytical response to it.
Prerequisites: Two from ENGL 2260, 2261, 2262, or 2263.
Notes: Repeatable to a maximum of 6 hours.
