We study literature, the poet Wallace Stevens said, because it "helps us to live our lives."

The faculty in English and American Literatures offer courses in lecture and seminar format on the British and American literary traditions from their origins to the present, as well on literature written in English in the Caribbean, Africa, and South Asia. We also offer creative writing courses in fiction, non-fiction, and poetry.
