Welcome

The UNC Asheville Literature Program offers students an opportunity to study British, American, and world literature in translation. It concentrates on the direct experience of fiction, drama, and poetry, as well as on placing authors and their works within a literary history and cultural context. Literature courses incorporate extensive participation in class discussion, group inquiry, and individual research. A sequence of core courses offers broad coverage of the field of literature and provides a solid foundation for majors who plan to continue the study of literature in graduate school. The study of literature also prepares students well for law, medicine, business, and other graduate programs.
