Winter 2026 - Be VERY careful with this class. The professor is good, but the course materials is a different story. You are not just reading something, you are learning a whole new language in this course. Be ready to take on a decent chunk of reading from the textbook and a whole lot more time struggling with the material and questioning what's going on. Unless you're interested in languages, do not take this class. Especially if you're pulling up to get the foreign literature requirement done.
