Lecture 2 "Short Story Unit Timeline"

I really enjoyed this lecture because it broke down the different time periods between 1800 to the modern day. It was interesting getting a brief overview of the time periods in literature because as we got closer to modern day, you can clearly see the dramatic changes in the world. These time periods included Romanticism, Transcendentalism, Realism, Modernism and Postmodernism. Postmodernism was the most inspiring for me because it was right after the Great Depression, the Civil War and post World War 1 and you can recognize how our economy was coming together and becoming wealthy.
