It's not difficult to pass the course as long as you do the reading and attend section. His lectures are a bit of a snooze though. They're pretty meandering. He even seemed oddly confused when asked about some of the content and exam requirements. The course was still interesting. Just have a good TA and note his main points during class.

Probably one of the worst lecturers I've had. He really just rambles the entire class, very often not about the reading assigned that week. Midterm and final are both short answer, so you do need to actually do the reading. Apparently he grades based on if your answers matched up what he talked about in lecture, but I never went and got an A.

Long and boring lectures that rarely talk about the actual reading assignments. He is very particular about the answers he expects on his exams; you must phrase your responses exactly how he explained them in class, otherwise he will say it's wrong. Lots of reading. Lecture is hard to follow, so hope for a good TA to explain the readings.

It was clear even from the first lecture that the professor is very passionate about this class, always open to questions and thoughts during lecture/office hours. He was even flexible about the term paper deadline. Of course, there are many readings, but as long as you attend section and pay attention in class, you'll do well.

Talks a lot in lecture and goes off on tangents. Even so, he is very in love with what he teaches. He's also very caring and for what is right, like the TA strike. A lot of reading, mainly the Odyssey & some play I forgot. Both interesting and the tests were just main ideas of that and to analyze the books a bit. No HW

Kittler is very nice, the lectures are not very relevant to the course. I barely went to class but got an A because the entire course is based off a midterm, final, and final paper. Section is important and the TA will go over what you need to know. Lots of reading so make sure to stay on top of it. Section and reading are a must for this course.
