Welcome to Ron's Moodle! This is a place where I can park my class info, share media with students, organize and evaluate assignments, etc., etc. Inside are my syllabi and info for the courses I'm teaching this semester. Here's a brief explanation of how to use the site:
- First, a.s.a.p. sign up for an account using the email you gave the school when registering for classes. Second, go to your email account and click on the link my website sent to you, confirming your registration. Third, come back here and sign in and create a profile. Please use your in-class (pinyin or English) name as your main handle, the one you want to be called by me in class. *For example, Wang Wen-hsing and Tim Wang.* However, also please input your 中文姓名 AND your student ID. Fourth, for Address you can input your department and year of study (e.g., 夜外三). All this helps me to keep track of you and assign grades.
- Once you have done the steps above, navigate to the course(s) you are taking with me. Near the bottom of the page there should be an option to "enrol me in class." Click that and you should be able to access the course schedule, texts, and materials we'll be using this semester.
- Any questions, can either use the messaging app of this site or email me: ron [at] ronentity.net

This course is intended as an overview and introduction to the study of "Modernism" in literature (and the arts) of the late-19th & early 20th cent. The focus is primarily on US and European modernist texts, although we will also glide across modernism in China and Japan of the same time period. In addition to primary works, students will also be expected to read important secondary/critical works on modernism by scholars working in the field.
