EL 150: Intro to Literary Study
If you already have a copy of King Lear or you don't mind using one from the internet, you don't have to purchase the one I recommend. But the one on this list has good notes on the language, which is why I recommend it. All the others are required. If you want to get ahead in your reading, I suggest that you start with A Good Man is Hard to Find (we'll read the whole book) and King Lear.
EL200: Media Lab
If you already have a recent copy of AP Style, you needn't purchase a new one.
EL312: Literary Criticism
Berger's book is a mystery novel that attempts to teach about postmodern literary theory. If you'd like to get a head start, read that book, as well as Pale Fire (a novel).
