ENGL 040. Core Course: Victorian Literature and Victorian Informatics


This mid-level core course offers a survey of canonical Victorian literature through the lens of theories of knowledge organization and the history of information practices. We will read texts by authors like Charlotte Brontë, John Stuart Mill, Charles Darwin, George Eliot, Christina Rossetti, Alfred Tennyson, Oscar Wild, and others. This class will focus on developing techniques of close, middle-distance, and distant reading, with an emphasis on exploring new digital tools for organizing, curating, decomposing, and remaking literary texts. Group II (post-1830)
