Comment:

Prof. Mirabelli is an exceptional teacher. I have been recommending him to my friends because taking his class will open your mind to see things differently. For example, Shakespeare isn't as boring as i thought after he's analyzed it and make you see it in a total different way. HE'S GREAT!!!!!!!!!

Being an ESL student and not having literature, history and western culture knowledge before this class, it helped me learn something on these topics. Prof's interest on multi-culture helped me participate during class discussions on various topics. Overall very good learning time with Prof.

okay, he can be a little eccentric, but what genius isnt? he is a very bright guy who wants to elevate the interests of the class above and beyond the survey course. i personally got a lot out of his class by paying close attention.

Introduced me to Foucault & my perspectives on lit. & life changed! Miss out, & you're not getting the other side of the story about historical sexuality or the Rennaissance. He'll give you an "edge" you can use in ur academic career & esp. as E

A bit off and somewhat eccentric but he is very knowledgable. He may seem to be erratic in his teaching but it all comes together in the end. He workload is also not too much. One paper and a final. Not bad, not bad at all

I was very pleased with his syllabus because I was only exposed to one piece of the literature on the entire syllabus. I have learned a lot from his course. He encouraged participation and did not criticize your opinion.
