When Rice University scholar Allen Matusow wrote his history of the 1960's, he entitled it The Unraveling of America. The image of a fabric loosening or deteriorating seems an appropriate way to characterize a decade that began with John Kennedy's inaugural summons to sacrifice and service, brought a cycle of riots and assassinations that exploded "Camelot" and the hopes of millions, and ended when Ohio National Guardsmen lowered their M-1 rifles and killed four Kent State University students during unruly demonstrations (which the slain students had not joined) triggered by Richard Nixon's invasion of Cambodia. Using a variety of readings - histories, biographies, documentary sources, memoirs and fiction - and tapping as well the rich filmic record of the times, our seminar will explore personalities and events that helped guide the course of history both at home and abroad. Topics will include Kennedy's Thousand Days; the civil rights movement; the Vietnam War; Johnson's Great Society; The Feminine Mystique and the women's movement; the New Left and the counterculture; the Nixon presidency and the origins of Watergate; and, not least, the stirrings of the great conservative reaction to the "vices and excesses of liberalism" and the radical left's "war again 1.00 units, Seminar

This is an introductory survey of the major issues and controversies in the fields of gender and sexuality studies. Broadly interdisciplinary, it introduces students to social constructionist and essentialist conceptions of gender and sexuality; explores the relationship between gender and sexuality; and considers the intersection of gender and sexuality with other categories of identity such as class, race, and nationality. It also engages questions of ideology and representation, asking how stereotypes have contributed to constraining and emancipating individuals through their gender and sexuality. Course materials are drawn from a range of disciplines, including sociology, psychoanalysis, history, anthropology, and literary and film studies. 1.00 units, Lecture
