Course Texts

Here are the texts that have been ordered; they should be available soon at the UNBF Bookstore. It is acceptable to read other editions, and some plays are available online. However, much of the secondary material in these editions — specifically in the Broadview editions, which are particularly well done — are required reading.

A series of critical articles will be made available on reserve or online.
