Higher Education

OMG y'all! I have just discovered this in the course catalog here at K-State.

ENGL 440 Harry Potter's Library

Section A: T 7:05-9:55--K. Westman

This course examines the Harry Potter phenomenon by reading the Potter novels themselves and the works of J. K. Rowling's antecedents (such as Thomas Hughes), influences (E. Nesbit, C. S. Lewis, Roald Dahl), and contemporaries (Philip Pullman). We will approach these works from a variety of critical perspectives, and we will also consult selected secondary sources. Before the first class, you must have read the first two Harry Potter novels: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone and Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. Success in this course depends upon careful reading and participation in our discussions. Quizzes, postings to an electronic bulletin board, a paper, a mid-term exam, and a final exam. English 440 is a General Education course.
