Course Bibliography
Below you will find a provisional collection of print and web-based resources grounding our opening lines of inquiry in ENGL328. Like many collections of resources for teaching and learning, this list is a work-in-progress. We should expect it to grow throughout the course of study. Please suggest additions to the list by sending email to derek.mueller@emich.edu.
