Absolutely the most difficult class I've taken at UCLA. I love lofty thinking and learning about abstract theories/ideas, but for an undergraduate student taking a class online during COVID, it was way too much. I appreciate Dimuro's attempt to make us broaden our horizons and think about literature in new ways, but he's the type of professor to always ask for more and never truly explain the reading. The class would have been received better if he was less critical of students trying to wrap their head around new ideas.
