WRTG 23100 - Honors Intermediate Seminar: Native American Culture

Institution:

Ithaca College

Subject:

Writing

Description:

This theme-based expository writing course seeks to develop and refine the critical thinking and writing skills of its participants. We will do so by analyzing the complex imagery constructed by the dominant culture to define the Indian as "other," and by studying recent fiction by Native Americans who have struggled with these representations and challenged them through native protagonists who are fully voiced subjects. The course thus emphasizes the role of language in creating identity and reality. Offered as part of the Humanities and Sciences Honors Program. Prerequistes: WRTG10600, WRTG10700, WRTG15200, or WRTG16200. 3 credits.
