In the second module, we consider plot and genre. In the third module, we look at motifs and genre, before turning to critical reception of genre in the fourth module. In the fifth module, we look for aspects of genre through close textual analysis. In the sixth module, we think about colonialism in relation to genre. In the seventh and final module, we explore atypical aspects of genre.
