 ENG L327 1764 Later Eighteenth-Century Literature
In this course, we will look at the literature of the period in terms of this struggle between reason and unreason, spending a good deal of time on the leading spirit of the age, Samuel Johnson, but also on some of the "unreasonable" styles of writing which pop up around him.
We will also read selections of the excessive poetry of the time, documents of literary criticism, and some texts that aren't usually read in the literature classroom, such as sections of Adam Smith's WEALTH OF NATIONS.
But it is also, and perhaps by necessity, an age which spawns a whole host of irrational responses to the dominant tone of Reason, from the emergence of the gothic novel to the literature of sensibility, featuring characters unreasonably overpowered by emotion.

 ghost: Definition, Synonyms and Much More From Answers.com
A popular genre of literature from the early Renaissance to the early twentieth century was the Dialogues of the Dead.
However, the haunting and mystery/adversarial acts of the ghost appears later in the "ghost story." Hauntings feature in Eyrbyggja Saga for a section of the work, but the "Gothic novel" and later "Gothic fiction" introduced the use of ghosts for fear to literature.
In the Elizabethan and Jacobean stage, the vengeful ghost is a commonplace who sets plots in motion.

There he taught himself to be a poet, mastering the techniques of satire in the paper wars against the other club, the Cliosophical Society, and the devices of polite literature in verse prepared for the commencement exercises.
Freneau graduated in 1771 when the American market for literature was so undeveloped that no one could make a living from writing.
Of more lasting consequence were “The Power of Fancy,” a personal testament to his devotion to imagination, and his commencement poem, a collaboration with Brackenridge, A Poem on the Rising Glory of America, which explored the myth of the westward course of empire and arts from the Old World to the New.
