3 semester hours Gay and Lesbian Literature is a survey course of nine selected authors from the canon of literature written by gay or lesbian writers that centers on the experience of defining the image of gays and lesbians in their respective cultures. The course will begin with the works of Sappho, a Greek lesbian poet of the Classical Era. Next, the works of Nineteenth Century writers such as Walt Whitman will be explored in the context of the Victorian Era. The Twentieth Century offers the bulk of writers concerned with the image of the gay or lesbian culture. From the onset of this literary movement which began in the 1920's, the works of Sherwood Anderson, D.H., Lawrence and Gertrude Stein define the self as lesbian and gay in society. Playwright Tennessee Williams adds his dramatic interpretation of the gay experience to the canon, and in the following decades, Truman Capote, Elizabeth Bishop and Allen Ginsberg cap off the survey with a fully realized expression of gay and lesbian artists. Prerequisite: ENGL 101. Fulfills: General Education Literature or U.S. Cultural Studies requirement.
