CLASS NOTES: COLL (CASE) A&H Breadth of Inquiry credit
An essay is an experiment: an experiment in language, an experiment with language, an experiment with the reader and also with yourself. In any essay, you try out ideas by trying out different ways of putting them into words. You try out different tones and moods. And you try out (or try on) different versions of yourself. This class, then, is both about the essay and is an essay. It is an experiment in reading and in writing. We will read essays written in the last five hundred years and work on writing our own.
