ENGL 3830

ENGL 383 is required for all English majors, but is an awesome class for anyone interested in taking English at UVA. Professors Cushman and Levenson are amazing--so smart, dedicated, and enthusiastic. Great books, awesome class overall.

This is a really fun class. Granted, it's hard to get into especially if you're an English major, and if you're an English major you'd have to take it anyway. But the lectures are well-prepared, with witty as well as meaty content. Both professors are very easy-going and intelligent, making the class very insightful overall. I enjoyed this class thoroughly - one of my favorite English classes of all time.

The lectures are well given and clever. The readings are interesting. The only annoying part is having discussion two days a week (yawn), but not bad if you get a good discussion leader (I totally recommend Elizabeth Anker). My first of the 300 level Engl series and I had way too much fun for a required survey course.

This class is PHENOMENAL. I'm not an English major and I've only taken one other English class but EVERYONE at UVA ought to take it. Cushman and Levenson are two of the brightest, funniest, coolest teachers at the University. The books you read are great--they are all famous ones that you ought to read anyway, and the lectures are so interesting and so much fun. Far and away one of the top three classes I've taken here--sign up quick!

GREAT course! Interesting lectures and reading list - not too much work or difficult as long as you keep up with the reading.

This class is worthwhile for the reading list alone, but the Professors work very well together and the lectures always enhanced my understanding of modernist works. Lots of writing, but the TAs are very helpful since they each only have one section.

The two discussion sections a week is definitely obnoxious (though inherently part of the 380 series, take it with Jason, he's hysterical and insightful and really encourages some worthwhile discussion), but Cushman and Levenson are just unbelievable. The readings are amazing. It's really that simple. A must-take class at U.Va.

The professors were so enthusiastic that it made you want to come to class. Plus the lit you read is great, classic.

Wow, just an extraordinary class. These two professors simply lecture on different levels. There's lots of reading to keep up with, but do your best to read before lecture, because these guys have incredible things to say about every single work on the syllabus.

AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME
