Humanities Seminars on Women and Gender. This seminar will consider fiction and autobiographical writing by women from around the globe-for instance, from Zimbabwe, Australia, the Caribbean Islands, and the United States. Each text will offer a narrative of education, allowing us to examine the ways in which these texts explore the processes of identity formation and deformation as well as the process of becoming educated within formal institutions and through counter-memory and alternative knowledge. First year students only. Gender and Popular Culture.
