ANTH 34312 - Understanding Austrian Culture

Institution:

University of Notre Dame

Subject:

Anthropology

Description:

What has gender to do with sexuality and how can we think about its entanglements in terms of a history of power? How do shifting borders between what counts as masculine and what counts as feminine produce other kinds of bodies in medieval societies: bodies that don't matter? Using original sources and material remains produced from the third through 15th centuries, together with current feminist and queer theory, students will think about the work of gendered embodiment and the production of bodies that don't matter.
