Our required reading list represents quite different views. As is the case with any list of texts, not nearly enough views are represented. The structure of the course will remedy this situation to the extent possible. Each evening session will begin with a student-led, critical discussion of the reading we have examined the week before. That student is responsible for bringing in at least two secondary sources challenging the writer in question.
All reading is required.
These papers will focus on an issue in the reading you find particularly difficult, troubling, or exciting. Your paper should end with a question. Your first paper is due Monday, the 19th of January and will cover parts I and II of Irigaray's Ethics of Sexual Difference . Course attendance is required. The course is writing and discussion intensive.
