ENGL 172S SC - Queer Postcolonial Literature and Theory
This course brings together the insights of two theoretical fields—queer studies and postcolonial studies—and examines how race, gender, and sexuality have been (and continue to be) sites of attempted colonial control, as well as anti-colonial contestation. We will read canonical texts in both traditions, as well as new literary representations and critical views from Africa, South Asia, and the Caribbean. Students will study novels, poetry, film, and photography alongside criticism that engages nationalism, human rights, citizenship, migration, tourism, and performance.
Course Credit: 1.0
Offered: Every other year
