Reading Lists for M
Reading Lists for M.A. Exam, Plan I
The reading lists for Plan I are designed to develop students' general knowledge of the history and diversity of literatures in English, encouraging a broad, structured understanding of the discipline while allowing candidates the opportunity for considerable choice to accommodate their individual interests. While acknowledging literary-historical traditions as an important ground of knowledge, Plan I attends to the variety of individual preferences, the increasing diversity of canonical texts, and the changing nature of literary canonicity. This plan should benefit both students pursuing a terminal M.A. degree and those going on for the Ph.D.
Procedure
From the 186 selections on the list, you should choose 62 as the basis for the Plan I M.A. Exam, including the required number of selections from each area on the list. For the number of selections required in each area, see the table below and the instructions included with the lists. In the process of developing a final individualized list you should consult closely with your advisors and committee.
