I have taken many college-level literature classes including: - Victorian literature where I studied Jane Eyre, Wuthering Heights, and Tess of the d'Urbervilles. - Modern American literature where I s... tudied Robert Frost, William Carlos Williams, and Ernest Hemmingway. - Post-Civil War literature where I studied the realist and naturalist movements in literature which included works such as The Call of the Wild by Jack London and Maggie: a Girl of the Streets by Stephen Crane. - Contemporary American literature where I studied contemporary American authors such as Charles Johnson, Toni Morrison, Don Delillo, Joan Didion, and Sherman Alexie. - Critical Literature Theory where I studied well-known theorists such as Michael Foucault, Roland Barthes, and Jean Lyotard. - Young Adult literature where I studied and read over 30 YA novels. In each of these classes, I had to do an immense amount of reading while still being able to perform in-depth and critical analyses of what I was reading. I finished each class with an A and positive feedback from my professors. I have a knack for spotting important themes, motifs, and symbols in literature. I am able to easily find evidence from texts to support arguments and strengthen an essay. I love the challenge of finding the perfect quote to support a claim or encapsulate a theme. read more
