As the new realities of the global village erode long-standing assumptions about discrete nationhood and fixed cultures, the concept of what it means to be an American is also shifting. Through representative literary works, this course explores the challenges individuals from various ethnic, racial, and cultural backgrounds confront within a pluralistic society. Students construct a more inclusive definition of culture, assess traditional attitudes about race and ethnicity, and appreciate just how deeply Native, African, Hispanic, Asian, and European Americans have enriched our national identity.

This course provides students with an in-depth study of how the portrayal of people with disabilities of many kinds - physical, emotional, social, and mental - in literature is reflective of the social and historical context in which it was written. Students apply close textual analysis of the imagery used to describe people with disabilities and evaluate the cultural attitudes this use of language reveals. Students read literature written by both disabled and non-disabled authors and analyze the ways that many stereotypical portrayals of disability undermine the disability community. Questions of how a culture decides what is "normal," how portrayals of the disability experience in literature differ between adults and children, and how the advocacy role is portrayed in literature are also examined. The goal of this course is to discover how literature can challenge our own assumptions about the experience of the disabled by contemplating what ultimately makes us human.

Summer 2023 Course Details: Sex and Sensibility: The Rise of Chick Lit from Jane Austen to Bridget Jones

In the last quarter century, the popular fiction “chick lit” has assumed Olympian proportions, infiltrating into the mystery, paranormal, and young adult genres as well as the subsets mommy lit and hen lit (the latter, however unfortunately named, aimed at the over-forty reader). With Candace Bushnell’s Sex and the City and Helen Fielding’s Bridget Jones’s Diary as master plots, the genre has figured prominently in the culture wars since the late 1990s: the anthologies This Is Not Chick Lit and its rejoinder, This Is Chick Lit, for example, defend competing agendas for the function of the woman writer and the purposes of fiction. This course offers a sustained examination of this postmodern subgenre and shows how these period pieces provide an ethnographic report on sex, dating, and desire, and changes in feminism. It seeks to understand the social conditions that gave rise to chick lit, a new incarnation of the courtship novel, and to explain its continued popularity and permeation into virtually every genre—from nonfictions mega sellers like Eat, Pray, Love to Legally Blonde: The Musical. Through various formats—online chats, a course blog, diverse types of essays, and creative writing—we will work to decode the ways in which this type of qualitative sociology negotiates romantic and economic concerns, ones dramatized in the literary antecedents of Jane Austen and Edith Wharton.

This course satisfies a Post-1800 Literature requirement for English Department majors.

This course may be counted towards Women's & Gender Studies major or minor requirements.

This course satisfies HUMA: DISC.
