Course Description


Instructor: Jim Mengert, BA, PhD

We think of Herman Melville and Henry James as authors of “big” books, among the best in American literature. But they were also masters of the shorter novel form. In this course we will examine two from each of these great writers: Melville’s Benito Cereno and Billy Budd; and James’s The Aspern Papers and The Beast in the Jungle.

Jim authored articles in scholarly journals on the poetry of John Milton and co-authored books on effective communication.
