Really easy and fun GE! I actually liked all the readings he assigned- some were books I would read on my own for pleasure had I heard about them. Essay is great, and based off a Check, Check Plus system and there's an EC opportunity (1 page analysis)! Prof. Wen is also fun to watch because he seems to always be in a great mood.

I have all the books + course reader for this class ready to sell. Please text me at ********** and we can arrange something!

It was my first year of UCLA, I very enjoyed this class. I had no idea about Scandinavian literature and had no interested. However, Professor Wen made this class interesting and fun! (I got A!) I sell my course leader, reading materials, paper and mid-term paper. $25

This class was a bunch of fun. First, Professor Patrick Wen offered two "paths" that we could take. The first was a ten question weekly quiz, and the second was just coming to class. Both paths had to do two essays, each worth 10% of the grade. I personally chose the second path because I enjoyed coming to class and discussing the material. Professor Wen gave you a 100% in the discussion if you were there and could answer his simple questions. He often called on us in alphabetical order so it was easy to predict who he would call on and so I could skip lecture that day. He also offered a free pass where you could email him that you didn't want to be called on and he would just skip you.

The first essay was due the end of Week 2 and the prompt was based on an in class trial we held for one of the characters in a story we read. If you were an attorney in the trial, he gave extra credit. The paper was only 3-5 pages long and again only worth 10% of the grade.
The second essay was due at the end of week 10 and could be about any of the materials we went over during the quarter. The essay was only 2 pages long.

Finally, what this class covered. All of the books/stories are easily found online, but if, like me, you want a paper version of the stories, only the course reader burned a hole in my pocket. We covered a pre-medieval tale, Hans Christian Anderson(the little mermaid, the ugly duckling, etc), some famous plays(A Doll House), three short novels, and a handful of movies. Most of what we covered was entertaining and easy to read/watch, with only a few weird/disturbing ones. His recorded lectures were long, but if you have a chore extension you can just speed them up.

This class did live up to the title of being the easiest GE at UCLA. Take it. You'll have. a lot of fun and read some really interesting things with the safety net of an almost guaranteed A.

I'm selling the course reader for $25
I'm also selling Naive Super, Hunger, The Shadow and other Tales, The Dwarf, and Anecdotes of Destiny (includes Babette's Feast) for $25
