The Department of English and Comparative Literature.
Campbell, Oscar James
This paper chronologically presents a history of curricular development dating from the inception of King's College in 1754 through Columbia University's departmental offerings in 1953. The comprehensive study of curriculums is initiated with a review of the significance of rhetoric during the early period. Systematic examination of the growth of the English department includes numerous references to professors, courses, and degree requirements. Course requirements are also discussed. (RL)
