Hermann Sterling’s Profile
My Courses
This course focuses on effective essay writing and basic research techniques, including use of the library. Demanding readings are assigned for classroom discussion and as a basis for essay writing. This semester we will be reading, thinking, and writing about popular culture. The class will read essays exploring contemporary American consumer culture, gender, sexuality, and race, and students will be asked to write essays analyzing a variety of popular culture texts.
ENG2420 Science Fiction, SP2016
We will endeavor to locate the emergence of the Science Fiction (SF) genre and unravel how SF came to be the preeminent literature of the 20th and 21st centuries. To accomplish this, we will read and watch significant examples of SF from its long history beginning with Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein. To demonstrate what you have learned, you will have brief, daily writing assignments, three non-cumulative exams, and a research essay. In addition to the readings, viewings, and lectures, students are strongly encouraged to add their SF knowledge to our discussions.
