EH 321 - Brave New Worlds: The Dystopian Novel


Credits: (4 credits)

Recommended for students who enjoy reading and giving free reign to their imaginations, the course explores six works of socio-policital criticism, all of which envision not-so-pleasant future works:  Utopia, Brave New World, 1984, Fahrenheit 451, A Clockwork Orange, and The Handmaid’s Tale.  Class discussion will focus on the novels’ shared concerns with ethics, social justice, technology, and the power of language manipulation to reshap reality.
