  • FYSB BC 1164x: Women and Culture I

    3.00 Credits
    Barnard College

    Literary history often portrays women as peripheral characters, confining their power to the islands of classical witches and the attics of Romantic madwomen. This course offers a revisionist response to such constraints of canonicity, especially as they pertain to the marginalization of female subjectivity in literature and culture. We will therefore explore a more diversified range of intellectual and experiential possibilities. The curriculum challenges traditional dichotomies--culture/nature, logos/pathos, mind/body--that cast gender as an essential attribute rather than a cultural construction. Texts include: Aeschylus, Oresteia; Hymn to Demeter; Ovid, Metamorphoses; Sei Shonagon, The Pillow Book; Marie de France, Lais; Chaucer, The Canterbury Tales; Sor Juana Ines de la Cruz, selected poetry; Shakespeare, As You Like It; Aphra Behn, Oroonoko; and Lady Hyegyong, The Memoirs of Lady Hyegyong. - G.

  • FYSB BC 1269x: Americas I

    3.00 Credits
    Barnard College

    The course transcends the traditional and arbitrary distinction that separates North and South American literatures. The Americas emerge not as a passive colonial object but as an active historical and aesthetic agent. Emanating from what might be called the geographical site of modernity, American literature is characterized by unprecedented diversity and innovation. In addition to classic American novels, short stories, and poetry, the multicultural curriculum features genres ranging from creation myths and slave narratives to Gothicism and magic realism. Texts include: Popul Vuh; Shakespeare, The Tempest; Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, Anne Bradstreet, and Phillis Wheatley, selected poetry; Madre María de San Jos Vid a; Charles Brockden Brow n, Edgar Huntl y; Toussaint L'Ouverture, selected letters; Leonora Sansa y, Secret Histor y; Olaudah Equian o, The Interesting Narrative of the Life of Olaudah Equian o; William Apes s, A Sonof the Fores t; Esteban Echeverría, "The Slaughterhouse"; Herman Melville, "Benito Cereno.- L.

Narayan, and Rabindranath Tagore. Additionally, there will be two film screenings and a trip to the Dahesh Museum of Art. - M. Chander 3 points
