Comps, all grown up
Aug. 26th, 2008 08:09 pmI just went through the reading list for the MA comprehensive exam (hahaha, and I thought Kenyon's was bad...this one's five pages long) making checkmarks by the texts I've already read. It's kind of amusing, really--there's some, but not a lot, of coverage of Old/Middle English...a ton of checkmarks for the Romantics and Victorians...somewhat fewer for early American...fewer yet, but still an almost respectable amount, for the eighteenth century...a thick flurry for all of the twentieth century...and a GIANT GAPING HOLE for the seventeenth century. BECAUSE I HATE THEM.
*sigh* I guess I know what I'll be spending this year reading. Yuck.
