Anthropology 202: Among Men:Construction of Masculinities
3.00 Credits
Haverford College
SO Z.Ngwane A comparative exploration of the socio-cultural politics of gender, with particular reference to masculinity, the course combines an intellectual historical approach (i.e.) how the related notions of maleness, manhood and masculinity have featured in the history of social thought and a thematic focus on issues such as the men's movements, popular culture, queer movement, etc. While the course will be grounded on an anthropological notion of the social basis of power, culture and identity formation, the readings will nonetheless be interdisciplinary -- including historical narratives, literature and film ethnographies (from Africa and the United States) and critical work from fields such as queer, feminist and postcolonial studies. Typically offered in alternate years.

Anthropology 206: Anthropology of Art
3.00 Credits
Haverford College
SO L.Hart This course looks at the social and cultural foundations of a category of things referred to as "art." We examine the properties of these things and of the people who make, trade, exhibit, and look at art, and ask why they (we) do that. This involves a) understanding, and making theory about, the general development of the concept and uses of "art" in European civilization, as well how and why objects from "exotic" (that is, colonized) societies (in particular Africa, Native America, and Australia) have been identified and collected as a particular kind of art ("primitive art") and b) exploring the "power of images" in diverse societies and social contexts. These questions allow us to challenge our received conceptions of what art is and does and to broaden our understanding of human creativity beyond conventional notions of art, taste, and value, and power. Prerequisite: One course in Anthropology or consent of the instructor. Typically offered in alternate years.
