We will also consider the ways that race and class inflect the construction and negotiation of gender. Other pertinent themes you may wish to discuss are also welcome. Our aim will not be to find definitive answers, but rather, to tease out and articulate this complex web of issues. Papers must be typed and double spaced. Please follow MLA guidelines for essay and citation format.
All papers are due as indicated on the syllabus.
Drafts and revisions are required. Twice during the term, student groups are responsible for leading an analytical and incisive discussion of their selected text. Groups should review their ideas with me before presenting. The more time and effort you put into your paper, the more thoughtful and well crafted it will be. If you have any questions or concerns about the class, please come see me.
