Open to qualified students who wish to pursue special studies or projects with members of the Literature faculty. Before registering for this subject, students must secure the approval of the Literature faculty chairman. HASS credit for Special Topics subjects awarded only by individual petitions to the Committee on Curricula. Normal maximum is 6 units; to count toward HASS Requirement, 9 units are required. Exceptional 9-unit projects occasionally approved.
The goal of this 3-unit reading course is for students to come away feeling comfortable with its language and argument, and to talk about the key questions and issues raised by the poem. Open to all, but particularly designed to complement S'06's 21L.705 seminar on Milton and science fiction, which assumes participants have read the poem at least once.
