Ulysses by James Joyce: A Continuation

This class will continue with the study of Ulysses by James Joyce starting with chapter/episode 9.

Emma by Jane Austen & The Poems of William Butler Yeats

This course consists of two mini-classes. For the first five weeks we will examine Emma, arguably the most complex and multifaceted of all Jane Austen’s heroines.
