ENG 205 - Sentence Style

This course develops students’ knowledge of sentence parts, patterns, word choice, and effects. Students study the logic behind different sentence styles and understand the various contexts in which they exist and to which they are best suited. Through writing and revision, students will explore the relations between sound, structure, context, genre, and meaning. Students will also seek out samples of literary, academic, and professional texts to identify the sentence conventions and patterns used in particular contexts.
