(Cross-listed with Comm 385) A critical analysis of gender representation in social institutions, popular culture, literature, and film. Readings and projects will address definitions of femininity and masculinity, as well as gender, power, and sexuality, with the objective of helping students critique cultural representations and examine how textual narratives shape their own perceptions of gender, sex, and identity. Individual or collaborative projects take the form of art work, videos, texts (stories, poems, critiques, research), or performances, presented in a seminar format. Offered in conjunction with WGS 275.
