課程概述

二十世紀的英國文學，展演了至少以下兩大重要發展：一方面，世紀之初幾位現代主義作家，革新了文學表現內在與外在真實的方式；另一方面，此時的文學作品也大量反映出，西方殖民主義如何在步上顛峰之後逐步崩壞，卻在前殖民地留下難以磨滅的文化、社會、政治、心理衝擊，其後座力甚至擴及當今世界局勢。本課程內容設計便將環繞這兩大主軸。上課方式包括講課（lecture）與討論：講課部分，授課教師將援引藝術史、通俗文化、哲學及世界史，提供背景資訊；討論部份，則透過全班共同深入閱讀文學文本，掌握作品的主題精髓。課程目的除了訓練學生的分析、思辨能力，亦冀望加深學生對現、當代世界的文化學養。

課程目標
 This course provides a critical introduction to important twentieth-century English literary works. The course is not intended as a comprehensive survey; rather, it examines the artistic, philosophical, and political underpinnings of select figures and movements with a view to offering in-depth analysis of specific issues. The course will focus its attention on two things: on the one hand, the modernist writers’ innovative ways of representing the inner truth and outer reality; on the other hand, crucial questions surrounding the historical vicissitudes during the twentieth century, including the impact of wars on the societal and individual psyche, the crisis of personal and collective identity occasioned by cultural or racial clashes, and the repercussions of imperialism and colonial history.  
課程要求
 1. Conscientious preparation, regular attendance, and active class participation. Preparation prior to the class meeting is essential. So is participation in class discussion. One absence may be allowed without penalty during the semester.

2. Midterm exam (in-class, open-book). Essay questions testing your ability to analyze and critique particular works.

3. Final exam (in-class, open-book). Same as above.

4. "Cultural literacy” project. Gain extra knowledge about the twentieth-century English-speaking world through English-language movies and TV dramas centered on the periods covered in this course. Details to be announced.

**Class Policies
1. To prepare for the exams, you may consult secondary material if you want to (though you are not required to). Be sure to digest the material well, and do not reproduce critics’ remarks verbatim in the tests.

2. If you have to miss a class, there is no need to submit a formal leave request through the university system unless it is for serious illness, family deaths, or participation in international competitions. If you skip class, you are solely responsible for obtaining the material given out in class—from your classmates, not from the instructor.

3. Plagiarism or cheating on exams will not be tolerated. Plagiarism means drawing on other people’s ideas, including information on Wikipedia, without proper acknowledgement.
