At least two of the nine courses taken for the major should address historical periods, literatures, or cultures before 1800 CE. There is no genre requirement; that is, you are not required to take a certain number of courses that address only poetry, for instance, or drama. Most literature courses address a mix of genres. Please see planning your major.
