To profane literature belong the "Testament" Vladimir Monomachus, written in 1099, in which its author gives a recital of his enterprises; and the celebrated account of the battle of Igor ("Slovo" or "Polku Igorevie"), which was found in 1795 in the library of Count Musin Pushkin.

 Romania Mission - About Romania
The literary works configuring a first stage in the evolution of the Romanian modern literature belong to a generation of writers in the fifth decade of the last century, during a historical epoch marked by social and political changes determined by the 1848 revolution.
In the 20th century, until the setting up of communism, after the coup d'etat in August 1944, the Romanian literature had known an ascending evolution, the top of evolution was the brilliant generation of inter-war writers: M.Sadoveanu (1880-1961), L.Rebreanu (1885-1944), Lucian Blaga (1859-1961), Camil Petrescu (1894-1957).
After December 1989, the main line of the Romanian literature has been represented by the effort to bring before the young generation the names and the works of writers of the Romanian emigration, who had been forbidden during the communist regime.

In 1682, he turned to writing prose fiction, and in little more than a decade until his death in 1693, he managed to create a literary legacy in prose that placed him firmly among the major writers of narrative fiction in Japan.
His real name may have been Hirayama Tógo; he was possibly the scion of a sword-making family from the town of Ibara who had settled in the castle town of Osaka as members of the urban merchant class, manufacturing, selling, and maintaining the swords that were so vital to the samurai and urban classes.
Hamada, 1964), it was for private circulation among his students and friends in Osaka, but the work so captured the imagination of its readers that he attempted further publishing efforts.

 Early American Literature
The theme of Early American Literature (Eng 340) is the diverse searches for identity (artistic, cultural, ethnic, political, philosophical, racial, religious, and sexual) in American literature from the early seventeenth century through the national period in the late eighteenth century.
To reinforce and build upon the broad foundation that students have received in the American Literature I (Eng 210), the students examine select texts, thematically grouped, by significant authors.
Aiming at a thorough understanding of the issues of identity raised by these authors, the predominant mode of instruction is class discussion (including oral presentations, group work, and in-class writing) accompanied by the directed lecture.

 Environ Literature Syllabus
Environmental Literature will explore the human connection to the environment, and especially to nature, in various literary works from the nineteenth, twentieth, and twenty-first centuries.
In addition to exploring this connection in literature, students will develop and express an understanding of their own connection to the environment through a medium that uses language.
During these interactions, students will be exposed not only to the delicate yet complex role of language in our connection to nature but also the ways in which this connection leads to grassroots activism.

 LIT 5XXX: Captives, Housewives, and Coquettes: Early American Women’s Literature
From 1650, when Anne Bradstreet’s collection of poems, The Tenth Muse, Lately Sprung Up in America, was published with ten pages of prefatory material written by men, to 1850, when Nathaniel Hawthorne complained about "that damn’d mob of scribbling women," American women writers endured criticism, censure, and worse for daring to enter public discourse.
Twentieth-century literary critics served these women no better—critical theories about American literature and its construction of a national identity have typically omitted the part women played in literary definitions of the American self.
This course will consider the ways that early American women—who were denied legal, political, and economic rights, and whose identities and destinies rested in their bodies’ reproductive capacities—negotiated dominant cultural constructions of themselves and entered the risky space of publication.

 Studies in Canadian Literature
Aside from its intrinsic interest as the first extended reference to the New World in English literature, The Four Elements has some importance in a history of English-Canadian poetry because it clearly indicates the early Renaissance ethos of the voyages of exploration which led to the discovery and colonization of Newfoundland and America.
The French were shortly to become the primary rivals of the English for possession of the "new-foundlandes," a general term which in the seventeenth century embraced not only Newfoundland but the greater part of the North American continent.
To judge from the early literature of exploration many of the first planters saw themselves, at least initially, from the sixteenth and seventeenth century view of new Adams beginning again in the garden of the New World, reserved by "God...

There are many citations of "color preferences" of birds in the literature, but precious few that are analytical enough to demonstrate that a true color preference exists.
Therefore, any analytical study should be considered carefully as a possible model on which new studies could be based.
