Osnova

Repetition — repetition to the point of perfection — is perhaps the aspect of Forrest Reid that best defines him as a person and as an author. He had but one theme — boyhood — and it came to the surface constantly, irrespective of time or setting. This course will examine that repetition, the ways in which Reid's oeuvre reveals a movement toward his magnum opus, the Tom Barber trilogy. To augment our plot, milieu, thematic, socio-historical, and canonicity considerations, the author's (auto)biographical residues will be brought center-stage, hence the two autobiographies and three biographies of Reid will be thoroughly engaged.Lesson 1 (February 19): Introduction. Lesson 2 (March 5): Read Apostate (1926) and Private Road (1940). Lesson 3 (March 19): Read The Garden God: A Tale of Two Boys (1905) and Following Darkness (1912). Lesson 4 (April 2): Read The Spring Song (1916) and Pirates of the Spring (1919). Lesson 5 (April 16): Read Demophon: A Traveller’s Tale (1927) and Brian Westby (1934). Lesson 6 (April 30): Read Uncle Stephen (1931). Lesson 7 (May 14): Read The Retreat; or, The Machinations of Henry (1936) and Young Tom; or, Very Mixed Company (1944).
