Comparative Literary Traditions, Concentration

Students learn to interpret and evaluate literary and cultural products from multiple origins and in languages other than their own. They are trained to present persuasive arguments, to master and use different theoretical and methodological tools, and to engage in dialog with scholarly voices both within the field of comparative literature and in other modern (and classical) language fields.

The Concentration in Comparative Literary Traditions requires 15 credit hours.

Five three-credit courses in all: three MCT courses at the 3000-level; two more courses, any combination of MCT courses at any level (3000, 4000 o 5000) or the survey courses MCTF 3305 or MCTG 3305.

2 international courses at the 3000-level (MCT 3309, the epoch courses, etc.)
3 more courses, any combination of international courses (at any level) or the survey courses MCTF 3305, MCTG 3305
*** Note that many CLT courses are cross-listed in other departments and can be counted both for that major and for a CLT concentration or double major. This is especially true for modern languages and English.
