COMPREHENSIVE EXAM LISTS

Students should understand that these texts are not isolated. Many stand in relationship to one another in ways of form and/or content. They are all products of a particular time and place. One should look for critical and historical help with any texts with which one is not particularly familiar. No literary work stands alone entirely; so seek help from the library, fellow students, and faculty.
