Class Description:
Instructor: Emily Capper

In English, the word "alien" designates both immigrants from other countries and beings from other words. Aliens of all sorts are everywhere; they are subject to deep fascination, fantasy, and for many, paralyzing fear, paranoia, and anxiety. But the deeper philosophical significance of the alien says as much about us as it does about them. Arguably, many people define themselves by who they are not - an alien, a stranger, an extra-terrestrial creature is first of all different than oneself. Similarly, when one feels alienated - either by technology, or some larger social process - it is as though one has lost a sense of oneself as a unique person. Thus, while the term "alien" traditionally designates foreign people and creatures, it also captures the strangeness of imagining, encountering, and dialoguing with the other.

It is a highly complex psychological, social, and philosophical experience that we will consider in this course, through a range of novels, films, and artworks from the 1860s to the present day, with an emphasis on American popular culture. We will not spend much time worrying about the unresolved question of extra-terrestrial life; rather, we will use the term "alien" in order to take a close, critical look at our own world and discuss how interactions with aliens (direct or indirect, benign or hostile) affect our suspicious, hospitable, ethical, or exotic fascination with other worlds. We will discuss mass migrations, wars, and the current refugee crisis, and how these political problems are reflected in fictional representations of alien invasions. A major, and recurring, theme of the course will be the use of modern technology and networked media to contact and visualize far-flung strangers. We will discuss Orson Welles' 1938 radio broadcast of The War of the Worlds (Halloween, 1938), Albert Camus' existentialist novel The Stranger (1942), Steven Spielberg's Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977), and Ridley Scott's film Alien (1979). We will also touch on some musical performances that embrace the iconic appearance and sound of the alien as a form of resistance, for example in the work of Afrofuturists like Sun Ra and Janelle Monáe.

Class Description:
While we will not consider whether there really is a race of little green men piloting flying saucers around the galaxy or a malevolent ooze from another planet locked away somewhere in the deserts of New Mexico, this course begins with the basic premise that aliens do exist. As prominent figures in popular films and novels and as symbols that there is something ?out there? beyond our understanding and experience, aliens have long been a part of our cultural lives. These otherworldly creatures are often objects of both fascination and fear, serving as complex sites of speculation and fantasy. Acknowledging their continued existence and popularity in popular culture, this course is framed by two questions: Why have humans been captivated by stories and images of extraterrestrials? What does it mean that we have imagined them in these ways? Although aliens have appeared in innumerable guises throughout their long history, there are a few recurrent features of their representation that warrant special attention. This class considers two key dimensions of the alien phenomenon: otherness and conspiracy. In a broad sense, aliens signify difference or alterity. From The War of the Worlds to Star Trek, alien races represent a type of being that is something other than human. Indeed, we use the same word to designate people from other countries in legal and political discourse. In this way, popular representations of aliens serve as dense sites for negotiating individual and collective identity. What do these images of difference mean? What can they tell us about how we understand ourselves? Are these representations merely coded ways to talk about differences of race, gender, sexuality, nationality, and class? In addition, aliens are shrouded in mystery and conspiracy. Knowledge about them is hidden, fugitive, illegitimate, and stigmatized. Their very existence is up for debate. As such, stories about UFOs, abductions, and government cover-ups can exist on a level beyond fact and fiction. In TV shows like Ancient Aliens and The X-Files, for instance, we may not believe the tales of alien encounters, but we also do not believe we know the ?truth.? What does this type of skepticism, doubt, and mistrust in ?official? knowledge mean? Why are explanations that involve cover-ups, intricate hidden plots, all-powerful cabals, and webs of conspiracy so appealing and prevalent? What can this tell us about the contemporary status of knowledge? This course addresses these questions by closely examining popular novels, short stories, and films from American culture. Theoretical and philosophical texts will guide our readings, offering critical frameworks for understanding the figure of the alien.

Do interactions with people from other countries affect fears, anxieties, and desires about beings from other worlds? In whose interests are "aliens" used? Novels, radio broadcasts, and films considered from perspectives of sociology, philosophy, psychology, literary criticism, and history.
Class Description:
The word alien, for the English speaker, designates both a person from another country and a being from another world. It is precisely this hazy semantic connection, how one meaning bleeds into and blends with another, that we will consider in this course. While one might write this correspondence off as mere word play, contemporary pop culture leads one to think otherwise. From Sayles? The Brother From Another Planet, to the more recent District 9, the oscillation between these meanings creates a fertile terrain for analysis. Putting aside the currently unresolved question of extra-terrestrial life, we will ask how our actual interactions with people from other countries (direct or indirect; benign or hostile) affect our interest in, anxiety about, fear of, or desire to encounter beings from other worlds. In this respect, we will consider how the treatment of the alien, in both theory and practice, has been instrumental (or perhaps disruptive) to the consolidation of socio-political and individual identities, and will trace the limits to and potential for a more ethical relationship to the radical alterity of an alien other. Throughout our considerations of the alien in literature, film, philosophy, psychology, sociology, and anthropology we will ask whether the alien point of view is in fact necessary to understand what it means to be human. In following this question out, we will also seek to understand our use of media technologies in our attempt to discover or produce this perspective. In effect, our overriding concern will not be what are ?they? trying to do to us, but rather, what are we using ?them? to do either to or for ourselves.

Class Description:
Vampires: History, Hype, and Hysteria Imagine the following scene: A dark room full of antiquities in Berggasse 19, Vienna, Austria on a late November evening, a couple of years before the dawn of the 20th century. Dr. Sigmund Freud is dozing off at his desk, dead tired from working on his masterpiece The Interpretation of Dreams. Suddenly, a knock on the door. Count Dracula walks in and lies down on the couch. "Tell me about your mother!?" demands the doctor. Now imagine a similar scene with just two differences. Instead of Berggasse 19 we now see 221B Baker Street, London. Instead of Dr. Freud it's Dr. Watson dozing off. Once again a knock on the door; once again Dracula walks in. "Holmes, Holmes!?" Watson might shout while frantically reaching for his pistol with the silver bullet. But what could even Sherlock Holmes do? Who? what? might these Dracula figures represent? For Freud, just another wealthy lunatic from Vienna's upper class. For Dr. Watson, perhaps a nightmare. And so on. But there are other possible answers: Our collective subconscious, a historical figure, a time traveler and shape-shifter, a real Rumanian zombie. A never-ending story! This course seeks to illuminate the undead and uncanny character of Count Dracula and his kin in the context of the dark side of post-Enlightenment modernity, from the Hapsburg empire to True Blood and Twilight. Based on historical documents from the 17th century, fiction, film and Freud's writings, we will explore the roots of "Vampire History, Hype and Hysteria," including topics such as psychology and politics, the dramaturgy of destructiveness, euthanasia, superstition, and economics. After all, the undead are responsible for a billion-dollar business.
