Description

ENG 222 True Crime 3 Credits
Examines historic and contemporary accounts of criminal activity. Students will discuss such issues as the cultural influences on the crimes themselves and on the creation and reception of the accounts. In cases where these works have inspired--or even attained the status of--“literature”, students will also consider the ways that the practices of fiction and nonfiction diverge or intersect. (3 lec) Prerequisite: ENG 101 with grade of C or higher or instructor permission
