ENGL 385 - Coetzee, Greene, and Rushdie: Structures of Belief in J.M. Graham 4 HU, CD, WR
First Semester. It seems perverse to examine J. M. Coetzee’s and Salman Rushdie’s work through the prism of belief, given their deconstructive procedures, which systematically undermine if not belief altogether, then the source of belief as so ideologically determined as to be suspect. It seems even more perverse to read these two alongside Graham Greene, who converted to Catholicism at a young age. Yet, this course will do precisely that—examine belief by (re)marking on those utopian moments that while not transcending doubt are also not amenable to categorical deconstruction in their work. Diversity, Post-1900.
