L36 Ital 280Sex in Italian Culture and Media3.0 Units
Description:From the 19th century hotbed of sexual tourism to the 21st century idyllic scenario of Guadagnino's steamy romance "Call Me by Your Name," Italy has been cast globally as an imaginary site of sexual freedom. Discourses on sexuality started proliferating in the late 19th century thanks to accounts of medical doctors and anthropologists (i.e. Lombroso, Mantegazza) who wished to contain the Italian vice. Later on, due to the Fascist obsession for sexual surveillance, male homosexuals, deemed unhealthy citizens, were pathologized and sent to confinement. Yet, with the early 60s when the Kinsey's report made it to Italy along with the Italian appeal for the "dolce vita", a new sexual freedom converted "early perversions" into "pleasant diversions", and pathology into diversity. Between the early 70s and the first Rome Pride in 2000, an Italian movement of sexual activism - featuring activists, writers, and artists - have impacted and reshaped globally the ways in which we experience and talk about sex, bodies and desires nowadays. How do we think, represent, and talk sex in Italian culture? How have race and gender shifted understandings of sexuality from pathology to diversity in Italian culture and society? This course invites students to explore and analyze a number of Italian cultural productions on sexuality. The material selected includes medical accounts, sexual health articles, fictions on abortion, feminist manifestos, documentaries and movies - spanning post-Unification and Fascist Italy, post-war sex education, and 1970s queer feminist activism, 1980s AIDS reports and fiction, and the transgender movement. The class is taught in English.

L36 Ital 419Feminist Literary and Cultural Theory3.0 Units
Description:This course provides a historical overview of feminist literary and cultural theories since the 1960s and 70s, acquainting students with a diversity of voices within contemporary feminism and gender studies. Readings will include works of French feminism, Foucault's History of Sexuality, feminist responses to Foucault, queer (LGBTQ+) theory, postcolonial and decolonial feminism, feminist disability theory, and writings by US feminists of color (African-American, Asian-American, Latina, Native-American). The reading list will be updated each year to reflect new developments in the discipline. We will approach these readings from an intersectional and interdisciplinary perspective, considering their dialogue with broader sociopolitical, cultural, and philosophical currents. By the end of the course, students are expected to have gained a basic knowledge of the major debates in feminist literary and cultural studies in the last 50 years, as well as the ability to draw on the repertoire of readings to identify and frame research questions in their areas of specialization. The class will be largely interactive, requiring active participation and collaborative effort on the part of the students. Students will be encouraged to make relevant connections between the class readings, everyday social and political issues, and their own research interests. NOTE: This course is in the core curriculum for the Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies graduate certificate. Prerequisite: advanced course work in WGSS or in literary theory (300 level and above) or permission of the instructor.

Home/Ident

A course may be either a “Home” course or an “Ident” course.

A “Home” course is a course that is created, maintained and “owned” by one academic department (aka the “Home” department). The “Home” department is primarily responsible for the decision making and logistical support for the course and instructor.

An “Ident” course is the exact same course as the “Home” (i.e. same instructor, same class time, etc), but is simply being offered to students through another department for purposes of registering under a different department and course number.

Students should, whenever possible, register for their courses under the department number toward which they intend to count the course. For example, an AFAS major should register for the course "Africa: Peoples and Cultures" under its Ident number, L90 306B, whereas an Anthropology major should register for the same course under its Home number, L48 306B.
