ENGL 3125: Literature and Science

3 Credit Hours

Prerequisite: ENGL 1102
This course explores the generative relationship between literature and science broadly defined. The course will attend not only to the many ways that scientific discovery has shaped literary perspectives, but also to the impact that language, culture, and metaphor exert upon how scientific discoveries are first imagined and then implemented. Course texts span multiple genres and historical eras, including literature, scientific studies, philosophy, and popular culture.
