17th Century Poetry, Theology, and Intellectual History

(8 Credit Hours) · Undergraduate

This module centers around intellectual-historical approaches to the intersection between theology and literature (primarily, but not exclusively, poetry) in the seventeenth century. In particular, the tutorial seeks to understand the role radical non-Trinitarian religious thought played on English and English neo-Latin literature of the period by conducting stylistic and methodological analyses of key authors throughout the century.
