ENGL 3001

#tCFF23 Professor Holsinger made this class so enjoyable! At first, I was nervous to study medieval literature, but in lectures he made the readings so accessible. You can tell he is passionate and knows a lot about the topics in this class. In the class, you have to read a lot, submit a midterm & final paper, and take two tests. All the work is doable, but I would definitely recommend not skipping lectures because they help you understand the text and formulate your own arguments for the papers.

I loved this class, but I enjoyed medieval and Renaissance lit going in. Holsinger was a great lecturer and obviously passionate about the subject matter. Readings aren't too intense. Overall, this class was a great introduction to early English literature and I learned a lot. #tCFF23

The professor was very engaging due to his unique lecture style. He had some good surprises and twist and turns. There's a LOT of reading. You don't have to do all of it, but depending on your TA this could be a poor choice. Most of the readings were good classics, there's a lot of Christianity stuff in the class but I guess that's just the nature of early English literature. I took this class because I needed to for APPW, but some people I knew took it for fun. I'm not sure why they would do that. It's not a bad course, but it's also not super fun. You can do a creative assignment for a essay which I enjoyed. #tCFF23
