The Comparative Literature course at Stanmore School of Business was a great experience for me. I'm from Egypt, and I was interested in exploring the similarities and differences between Western and Middle Eastern literatures. The course covered a wide range of topics, from the classics to contemporary works, and the instructor was knowledgeable and supportive. I appreciated the flexibility of the online platform, which allowed me to balance my studies with my work and family responsibilities. The course materials were mostly relevant and useful, although I would have liked to see more examples from African and Asian literatures. Overall, I'm satisfied with the course and would recommend it to others who are interested in literary studies.
