Really easy and fun GE! I actually liked all the readings he assigned- some were books I would read on my own for pleasure had I heard about them. Essay is great, and based off a Check, Check Plus system and there's an EC opportunity (1 page analysis)! Prof. Wen is also fun to watch because he seems to always be in a great mood.
I have all the books + course reader for this class ready to sell. Please text me at ********** and we can arrange something!
Oh, and of course try to volunteer for the court trial of Hrafknel. It was loads of fun being on stage, and it gets you out of a writing assignment. In addition, I don't think anyone can really complain about the grading here. It's really easy and extra credit opportunities usually are abundant. Take this class if you a want a great GE to balance a heavy course load.
Took this class Fall 2011. I enjoyed professor Wen's lectures and actually appreciated that he could translate Scandinavian culture and literate into laymen's terms and everyday vernacular. Wen tries to connect the course material to everyday life, and keeps the course load light for all with occasional movies/video clips. Apparently, Wen has a love for the melancholy Dane Soren Kierkegaard, who was mentioned every lecture or so. The reading material was excellent, ranging from HC Anderson's fairytales, Babette's Feast to the denser/heavier material in Hunger. I would recommend this class, but know that this is only a brief survey of Scand lit. With an hour long discussion and a large section, it's hardly possible to get in depth with literary analysis. Instead, maybe go to office hours if you want explore the subject even more.
