Course Description

This is an introduction to the relationship between literature and gender. The course is a response to the initiative offered by increasingly polarized aesthetic sensibilities and modes of literary representation between such concepts as dominance and marginality, object and subject, the normative and discourse of gender and their representation in literature. Theories of gender will be highlighted in this course.
