Comparative Literature

Current Courses

Brown's Department of Comparative Literature offers a robust array of courses for both undergraduate and graduate students.

Due to the interdisciplinary nature of the department, Comp Lit courses cover a multitude of interests, cultures, and languages. Take a moment to explore the courses for the current and/or upcoming semester, and feel free to reach out to any of the faculty members for additional information.

Note: all Comp Lit courses (COLT) satisfy Brown's WRIT requirement for undergraduate students, as long as the course is not a cross list from another department.
