ENG 143 - Terrible Beauty: The Art of Tragedy

This course examines the historical evolution of tragedy and its central place in Western literary expression. Beginning with the three classical exemplars, Aeschylus, Sophocles, and Euripides, we trace tragedy through Roman closet drama (Seneca), Renaissance masters (Shakespeare) and European interpretations (Racine, Schiller), to both modern experimental tragedy (Miller) and modern attempts to revive the classical model (Eliot). For English majors, this course may satisfy the C-2 or D-1 requirements but cannot double count.

Anticipated Terms Offered: Periodically
