English 3.303, Autumn 1995, Jack Lynch
Six books -- John Gay, The Beggar's Opera (Penguin); Daniel Defoe,
Roxana (Penguin); Jonathan Swift, Gulliver's Travels
(Signet); William Blake, The Marriage of Heaven and Hell (Dover);
John Cleland, Fanny Hill (Penguine), and William Hogarth's
Engravings (Dover) -- are available from the Pennsylvania Book
Center (not the Penn Book Store!) at 38th and Walnut. The
remainder of the readings (and other class materials) are on reserve in
the Rosengarten Reserve Room in the basement of Van Pelt Library and on-line on the English Web.
(Note: Of the six books available at the Book Center, The
Beggar's Opera, Gulliver's Travels, Fanny Hill, and the
relevant extracts from The Life of Johnson are also available
electronically. For these longer works, reading the paper will be much
easier on your eyes, but if money is short, you can still get the
materials.)
There is also a required guide to grammar and
style available only on the Web. The syllabus has occasional
references to specific entries in the guide.
