Students reflect on critical reading strategies, textual practices, and language itself. Students engage in active discussion of metafictional texts (i.e. those that reveal their own inner workings as texts) and theoretical readings. Combining primary and secondary readings, students address such issues as the constitution of literature and culture, the relation of literature to criticism, critical analysis and evaluation.
