Introduction to Literature will be taught (English 250-R-) through the University of Utahs extension service at Davis County on Tuesday and Thursday nights from 7 to 9 p.m. The course began on Tuesday, April 3 and tration for the course is open until Friday, April 6. THE COURSE offers five hours of liberal-educatio- n credit for the returning night student or the regular day student on campus who would like to take extra hours at night. It is also open to all persons interested in literature and is meant to provide basic skills for the approaching a literary work in itself. It is meant to generate a basic appreciation for and a continued interest in literature. THE NORTON Introduction to Literature (ed., Bain Beatty and Hunter, second edition) is the text for the course. The course will be broken into genre sections and selections will be read and discussed within each genre. The elements that make up either fiction, poetry or drama such as setting, characterization, imagery, theme, techniques of language use, etc., will be discussed in relation to each work. The student will be taught to appreciate a work in itself as a work of art first. Later they will try to place a work within its context in literary history. THE COURSE will move from the short-storthrough drama to poetry. Representative selections from the text will be used. Some of the short stories to be read include Melvilles Bartleby the Scrivener, James Joyces The Dead, D.H. of Odor Lawrences Chrysanthemums. The plays will include Shakespeares Hamlet, Bernard Shaws and Major Barbara, Sophocles Oedipus Tyran-- . nus. Selections from poets from John Donne to T.S. Eliot will be used in discussing forms of poetry. Readings will be paced according to the level of the class allowing for both informative lectures and discussions. FEROZA Jussawalla, who is the instructor for the course, is offering the course encouraged by the response to the Shakespeare class taught by her last quarter. She felt she had a cohesive and a bright group who enjoyed literature and who were fun to teach. The class watched several film versions of Shakespeare plays and went to performances in town and discussed the content of the plays and the productions. The students who were interested and represented selected the candidates and they were required to give nominating speeches, similar to national political meetings. DURING THE coming year, Rodney will travel to FFA functions throughout the state and will attend the national convention in Kansas City, Mo., and meet President Carter during a leadership seminar in Washington, D.C.
