The first thing you must know is that this course is
*wrongly named*. Most of the course we did
poems - yes a total of 10 poems! We did not
study any novel/long story at all. However, we did
study two short prose pieces, by two obscure
authors. We also had the short play 'Doctor
Faustus', by Christopher Marlowe as a reading
assignment, but was not discussed in detail in
class.

We studied the following poems, all famous


poets:
1. On His Blindness, by John Milton
2. Sonnet 65, by William Shakespeare
3. The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock, by T. S.
Eliot
4. An Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard
5. an Ode on a Grecian Urn, by John Keats
6. Kubla Khan, by Coleridge
7. Sailing to Byzantium, by W. B. Yeats
8. My Last Duchess, by Robert Browning
9. The Unknown citizen, by W. H. Auden
10. A Valediction Forbidding Mourning, by John
Donne

Though the course had an overload of poetry, the


poems are actually well chosen. Prof. Tripathy is
