ENGL 2100-Black Vampires-PARKER: Start Here

Black Vampires

In this class, we read about Black vampires in literature written by Black writers only and we watch two movies that star Black vampires. We’ll learn historical contexts that may have given rise to Black vampires, and we’ll also do some traditional literary stuff--thinking about plot, point of view, and personification. And, in addition to learning literary terms and historical context, you will reflect and write about Black vampires! 

You’ll encounter Black vampires in French, Caribbean, and African American literature. You’ll travel to Spain, Trinidad & Tobago, the United States--and more! And you will travel across time periods, from the 1800s to the 2000s.

How to set up your New York Times account

The library provides access to the full contents of the New York Times Online. By setting up a personal account, all students, faculty, and staff can access New York Times articles from the beginning of the newspaper’s publication to the current day. In addition, you may register for complimentary access to the New York Times inEducation, an instructional design website for educators.

After setting up your personal account, occasionally you will need to renew your account to maintain free access to the New York Times Online. You may not know when your personal account will expire; however, if you suddenly are unable to open NYT articles while logged into your account, then it's time to renew. For additional help, see the New York Times' support page.
