Gothic Collaborations

Welcome to the collaborative page for St. Anselm College’s  EN337 Gothic Novel syllabus (taught by Dr. Meoghan Cronin) and Southern New Hampshire University’s LIT 451 Gothic Syllabus (taught by Dr. Susan E. Cook).

The purpose of this page is to provide opportunities for inter-campus dialogue between these two literature courses dedicated to the Gothic.  We (Dr. Cronin and Dr. Cook) discovered we were both teaching a course on the Gothic this fall, and wanted to use the opportunity to bring our campuses together.  In addition to this shared blog, through which we can discuss the texts we have in common, EN 337 is invited to attend LIT 451/651’s Gothic Poetry Student Reading, scheduled to take place in Walker Auditorium at SNHU on 7p.m. on Thursday, October 25th.
