Contemporary artists such as Frank Chin, Maxine Hong Kingston, David Henry Hwang, and Han Ong. Political/historical background of Asian American artists, their aesthetic choices.
- Class Description:
- This course focuses on the literary and theatrical contributions of American artists of Asian descent. Through these novels, memoirs, poetry, stories, and plays, we can understand the particular connections between literary form, expression, and production and the social formations of race, ethnicity, nationalism, class, gender, and sexuality. Asian Americans come from a diverse range of national and cultural backgrounds; likewise their literature and drama presents many different perspectives and experiences. This course will not attempt a survey of these works; rather our readings and discussions will reflect particular preoccupations that regularly surface in these works. These include migration (and its accompanying states of disorientation and acts of reinvention), racism and stereotypes, the "road trip," and redefining home. We'll pay special attention to Asian American experiences in Minnesota and other parts of the Midwest. This course satisfies the core requirement for the Asian American Studies minor as well as elective requirements for the English major and minor.
