LIT 3123 - Cultural Studies

Institution:

St. Francis College

Subject:

Description:

Forms of culture surround us at every moment. Rap lyrics, ads, TV news, productions of Shakespeare all carry implied messages about who we are, what world we live in, and what we should value. We examine the different modes of understanding and interpreting contemporary cultural phenomena. We analyze and write about cultural forms as texts to be read for what they tell us about men and women, wealth and power, race, nation, and technology.
