  • FG 280: Topics in Women Studies

    1.00 Credits
    Colorado College

    Focuses on various topics in literature. Courses will vary from year to year; taught by Women's Studies faculty and visiting faculty. Block 3: Topics in Feminist Studies: Black Women Writing About Slavery. The theme of this course takes into account various strategies Black women writers have used to re-imagine themselves outside of the definitions that slavery and the popular imagination have imposed. We will examine different literary genres, as well as works written from the nineteenth century to the present. Texts include those that deal directly deal with slavery and those that do not. An important conceptual model for the course is of a palimpsest; thus our task is essentially an "archaeological" one as we reconstruct a hidden history and the efforts of some to write about it-on the blurred and erased pages of their sisters. We look mostly at contemporary writers like Toni Morrison, Octavia Butler, Gayl Jones, Sherley Ann Williams, Alice Walker, and Angela Davis. We examine Black and white feminists' theories on the relationship between maternity and the maternal role and the historical literary processes of "degendering" and "regendering" Black womanhood. (Meets the Critical Perspectives: Diverse Cultures and Critiques requirement.) (Also listed as American Cultural Studies 200 and English 380.) 1 unit - Seward. Block 4: Topics in Feminist Studies: The Poet as Witness to War.

Prerequisite: ( Writing Intensive). (Also listed as American Cultural Studies 200 and English 286 and Southwest Studies 280.) 1 unit - Martinez.

  • FG 285: Women & the Body

    1.00 Credits
    Colorado College

    The course will explore the philosophical and rhetorical dimensions of women's bodily experiences. We will examine issues of women's identity, subjectivity and embodiment through an investigation of body image, race, reproduction, and sexuality. Readings will focus on theoretical discussion of these issues. We will also rely on film, music, and narrative to understand the relationship(s) between women's bodies, their identities, and their definition in society. Most importantly, we will also draw from our own experiences as women, and/or the experiences of women we know, to help us make sense of the information we read. (Meets the Critical Perspectives: Diverse Cultures and Critiques requirement.) 1 unit - Olive.
