The course covers all of the substantive material that is usually taught in a survey course of American Literature at the college level. It reviews the prose and poetry written in the United States from colonial times to the modern era.

“In this course we will progressively go through the different stages of writing. Specifically, we will look at The Colonial era, the Early National Period, the Romantic Period, the Period of Realism and Naturalism, the Modernist Period and the Contemporary Period Terms. Then we will look at Verse Forms and Literary Devices and a section on Writing the Essays. We will go thought the major movements and look at the major writers of them, discuss their lives a bit, and take a look at some of their important work,” explains our instructor Dean Simpson, professor of language and literature courses at Tufts University.

Our “American Literature” course is completely self-paced. There are no prerequisites to take this course. By watching the videos a number of times, reviewing the modules, reading the supplementary texts and doing the practice questions, you should be well prepared for the College level exam.
