While very different, both communicate the rich traditions of African-American literature. The creative forces of the African-American experience flooded the artistic world early in the history of the United States. Traversing all genres, styles and subject matter, the work of African Americans appears both in the mainstream and on the margins. From Toni Morrison to Marcus Garvey and Chinua Achebe to Zora Neale Hurston, African-American authors reach audiences of all ages and ethnicities.

Part I
In your first year at Kent you have the opportunity to explore English with other subjects which may be new to you. All English students take at least one of two year-long English modules. Romanticism and Critical Theory (compulsory for Single Honours students) examines authors such as Keats and Austen, the contexts in which they wrote, and how we interpret literature and the role played by literature in society. Early Drama starts with a look at drama from the middle ages to the 16th century and ends with a project. This often takes the form of student productions of plays on the course.

Anglo-American Literature and Comparative Literature
Clientele: Cornell's English Department offers courses about genres (utopias, folklore, detective story) as well as traditional courses about specific authors and chronological periods. The departments of English and Comparative Literature emphasize the history and analysis of critical theory (e.g., feminism, semiotics) as related to popular culture as well as the canon. The collection serves other departments, including Theatre Arts, Linguistics, the Society for the Humanities, Women's Studies, and African Studies and Research. Existing collection ECS 4 Lang W The current collection covers all British, U. S., Australian and Canadian literatures and language, plus basic English-language titles from the Pacific Islands. Historically, Anglo-American literature was collected at a research level with 4+ strength in the Medieval and 18th century portions of the collection. Major exceptions to level 4 coverage have been Celtic language and literature, journalism, and Australian and Canadian literature; some areas of these holdings are at a research level, but overall they support a level 3 (instructional) level. Current collection CCI 4 Lang W Primary texts, bibliographies, and secondary criticismin that orderare all necessary to maintain the collection at a 4 level. Primary texts are mostly in English, but our holdings of secondary works represent all major European languages. As the purchasing power of funding declines, we have bought fewer critical works in foreign languages. However, a special effort is made to acquire all scholarly titles treating themes and motifs in literature, and journals devoted to the works of individual authors . Titles from selected small presses are received on blanket order .
