課程概述

*因部分文本重複,修習過「全球化:十八世紀文學與相關議題」課程者,請勿修習本課程*

This course aims to introduce students to Mary Shelley and the literary culture of the first halfof the nineteenth century. Particular attention will be paid to two novels by Mary Shelley, Frankenstein(1818) and The Last Man(1826), as well as the "first gothic novel": Horace Walpole's The Castle of Otranto (1764). This course will situate Shelley's works in the traditions of Gothic, Enlightenment, and Romanticism. Topics to be discussed in this course will include the Gothic, passion, revolution, Romanticism, Enlightenment rationality, intellectual aspiration, among others. 

課程目標
This course hopes to introduce students to some of the best works in this period. On completion of this course, students should be able to relate the novels to both the Enlightenment and Romantic periods. Students should also be able to draw the connections between the novels with major ideas, political events, and cultural changes in this period.

Quizzes

There will be a number of quizzes during the semester. These quizzes are designed to ensure that students read the assigned novels before class (in the form of ID questions, short-answer questions, etc.). Quizzes will be given at the beginning of the class period. No make-up quizzes will be allowed. 
2. 
Mini-Reflections 
30% 
There will be a few film screenings during the semester. Students are required to attend these screenings and write mini-reflection reports after the screenings. 
3. 
Final Exam 
40% 
Students need to take one final exam (which accounts for 40% of their final grades) on 11th January. This will be an open-book exam (only novels are allowed; notes and other materials should not be used during exam). No make-up exam will be allowed, unless reasonable excuse is provided beforehand (for sick leave, official medical report should be presented).
