COLT 1811V: Literature, Modernity and the Islamic Periphery
1.00 Credits
Brown University
This course will explore the tensions and negotiations of modernity and tradition in Indian and Pakistani Muslim literature from high colonialism to post-coloniality. Beginning with a brief look at the pre-colonial Indo-Muslim literary field, the course will turn to projects of literary reform in the wake of the Great Rebellion of 1857, when Muslims became a special object of attention for the British colonial regime in India. We will then read some literary expressions of the first high moment of pan-Islamism and Indo-Muslim self-assertion in its intersection with literary modernism in the early 20th century. Subsequently, the dramatic impact of social realism at the height of anti-colonial nationalism will be an important focus of the course, as will the traumatic literatures of Partition and the disillusionment with decolonization. All course materials will be in English. No prerequisites.

COLT 1811W: Visual Obsessions: Japanese Film, Fiction, and Modernity
0.00 - 1.00 Credits
Brown University
The pervasiveness of visual obsessions in contemporary Japanese culture prompts us to rethink the impact of modernity in terms of visuality. Through the examination of a wide range of filmic, literary, and visual art forms produced in Japan from the 1920s to the 2000s, this course explores the question of visuality as a historically and technologically conditioned way of seeing. The issues to be considered in this class include: the construction of "Japanese" aesthetics, orientalism, ocularcentrism, the problems of interiority and the subject, the relation between habit and the everyday, and cultural nationalism. This course will introduce important theoretical concepts about vision and modernity, asking students to interrogate these concepts through the close examination of specific Japanese texts and films discussed in class. Writers, filmmakers, and visual artists include: Tanizaki Jun'ichirô, Edogawa Rampo, Abé Kôbô, Karatani Kôjin, Ozu Yasujirô, Kurosawa Akira, Ichikawa Kon, Suzuki Seijun, and Murakami Takashi.

COLT 1812A: Literatures of Immigration
1.00 Credits
Brown University
Why do people migrate? How do literary genres, including poetry, fiction, autobiography and memoir, characterize immigrant experiences? How is the experience of "coming from somewhere else" similar and different for each subsequent generation of immigrants? How does literature indicate the impacts of migration on the culture, politics and economics of the countries of immigration and emigration? How do literatures of immigration imagine the past, present and future of networks and communities of immigrants? Focusing on twentieth-century literary texts and the socio-historical context of mass migration, the first half of the course examines immigration literature in the U.S., the second half of the course explores literatures of immigration beyond the U.S., and the course concludes with an inquiry into immigration in our presently globalizing age.
