ENGL 5559: Studies in Special Topics (CRW) - Philosophy, Literature, and Death (Spring 2020)

CHORUS SINGING IN BLACK VEILS

Simon Critchley, in his book The Book of Dead Philosophers, argues that thinking about death is fundamental to our being human: "To philosophize, then, is to learn how to have death in your mouth," But how do we acquire 鈥渄eath in our mouths鈥�? How do we think death? And what does this thinking have to do with literature, with reading and writing? This course will examine these questions.
