In the English department at Trent University we introduce our students to the vast sweep of literature in English from its beginnings over a thousand years ago in Anglo-Saxon England to its current status as the global medium of culture and communication. We study the language of our daily existence functioning at its full force, in works of the imagination which confront the pressing and enduring issues in our lives and our society. Our goal is to enhance students’ love and understanding of literature in English and to enable them to develop the reading, writing and analytical skills that are crucial to academic and professional success in the Information Age. We believe that the best way of achieving this goal is by exchanging and testing ideas in small-group discussions led by experienced and dedicated teachers.
These courses are intended as guidelines. Speak to your guidance counsellor to see what courses are offered at your school.
