  • WGS 272: WOMEN AND VIOLENCE WORLD TEXTS

    3.00 Credits
    Kutztown University of Pennsylvania

    This course will investigate the complex relationship women around the world have with violence. Though formerly only regarded as those in need of protection, women who perpetrate violence have forced a shift in gender roles ascribed to violence. Looking at written and visual texts that depict women as both victims/survivors and perpetrators of violence will allow students to discuss the ways women's shifting role in violent movements and in texts has changed both the gender ideology and the political climate in a rapidly globalizing world. This course work will look at the ways women's relationship to violence is constructed and question ideas that women are 'naturally' non-violent. While this course does not condone the use of violence, it does study ways women use violent tactics to resist oppression, enact revenge, and find a voice.

  • WGS 274: WOMEN, WRITING & RHETORIC

    3.00 Credits
    Kutztown University of Pennsylvania

Women, Writing, and Rhetoric seeks to expand the study of rhetoric with a multi-layered consideration of how rhetoric has been informed by, and informs, a female consciousness. This is an elective course for English majors, Womens Studies minors, and those seeking a concentration in Composition, Rhetoric, and Literacy Studies.
