ENG 305W - Irish American Literature3 CR
Forty-four million Americans identify themselves as being of Irish extraction in the 1990 U.S. Census. Indeed, a large number of Maine’s original European settlers were Scots Presbyterians who came to the new world by way of Ulster, Ireland. The presence of these immigrants added to the artistic life of the United States, not to mention its history and political culture. In this course, students will be introduced to the Irish immigrant experience in the U.S. from the colonial period to the present, through the works of artists of Irish descent.
Prerequisite(s): ENG 102W .
