- Concepts in literary studies. Poems, plays, short stories, novels, essays, letters by women from different parts of world. Focuses on lives, experiences, and literary expression of women, including basic concepts of women's studies.
- Class Description:
- This course focuses on world feminist and queer writing as literary form, containing thematic of expression that trace not only history and memory of women and femme embodied living, but also the macro positionality of the postcolonial, transnational, global as a form of relation. Centered on writing from and about the majority world (the non-West), we explore how literature has addressed relationality, colonialism, nationalism, capitalism, and globalization, as well as how these forces have shaped the production and consumption of literature. We focus on the multiple strategies - textual, aesthetic, and ideological, -- those writers employ to address and represent other ways of knowing and being - to decolonize, queer, and transform themselves and their worlds. We read multiple genres including essay, report, voice narrative, graphic narrative, fiction, from across transnational geographies of Asia, Africa, Caribbean, South America, Middle East and diasporas lives. We are also looking at capitalism and colonialism in the context of settler colonialism. Some of the dominant themes and concepts we address include migration, indigenous knowledge, border, memory, language, inequality, poetry of life and environment.

- By reading short stories, essays, and poetry by women from different parts of the world and from a range of time periods we address core concepts both in literary studies and gender, women, and sexuality studies. We study all of these in a comparative way, to understand how specificities of nation, culture, and history affect and inflect literary writing. By the same token, we look at gender as it relates to the nature, activity, and forms of creative writing and reading, and how these vary across cultures and world regions.

- Course Catalog Description:
- Concepts in literary studies. Poems, plays, short stories, novels, essays, letters by women from different parts of world. Focuses on lives, experiences, and literary expression of women, including basic concepts of women's studies.
- Class Description:
- How do women writers from the Americas and Caribbean narrate their lives and experiences as post-colonial subjects? What do their writings reveal about the politics of memory, history, and voice in the shadow of empire? These questions form the point of departure for the semester. We will read selected works of narrative non-fiction, poetry, plays, short stories, and novels to examine how authors imagine the relationship of race, sex, and gender to body, place, time, and nation. This semester's reading materials participate in fabulist traditions. Fabulist writing encompasses work broadly categorized as magical realism, science fiction, myth, fable, folklore, fantasy, horror, and cyberpunk. Such texts are often marked by unrealistic settings, plots, and characters but are nevertheless committed to real sociopolitical critique. Together we will contemplate why and how our authors employ fabulism as a metaphor for other(ed) worldliness. Major texts include: Octavia Butler's Kindred; Nalo Hopkinson's Midnight Robber; Cherrie Moraga's Watsonville; Isabel Allende's The House of the Spirits; Ana Castillo's So Far From God. Shorter selections from authors such as: Opal Palmer Adisa, Sheree Renee Thomas, Pamela Mordecai, Ursula Le Guin, Angelica Gorodischer, and Gloria Anzaldua.

- Concepts in literary studies. Poems, plays, short stories, novels, essays, letters by women from different parts of world. Focuses on lives, experiences, and literary expression of women, including basic concepts of women's studies.
- Class Description:
- How do women writers of color from the Americas and the Caribbean articulate their lives and experiences as post-colonial subjects? What do their writings reveal about the politics of memory, history, and voice in the shadow of empire? How do we understand these poetics to be constitutive of the specific locatedness of post-colonial experiences and the contingent materiality of race, class, sex, and gender? How do these authors imagine alternate possibilities? These questions form the point of departure for the semester. Through an exploration of narrative non-fiction, poetry, plays, short stories, and novels, we will examine how authors envisage their relationship to body, place, time, and nation. In particular, we will read almost exclusively from ?fabulist genres.? Fabulist writing encompasses work loosely categorized as magical realism, science fiction, myth, fable, folk lore, fantasy, horror, and cyberpunk. Such texts are often marked by ?unrealistic?/ ?non-realistic? settings, plots, and characters but are nevertheless committed to ?real? sociopolitical critique. Together we will think about why and how given authors employ fabulism as a metaphor for ?other(ed) worldliness? through a broader commitment to social justice. Reading load: moderate. Writing: one research paper; three informal responses; one short book review. No exams!
