WST 8 - (IS) Femaile Identity THrough Art and Literature
Once a Year
This course will explore the theme of female identity as expressed in
both literary and visual texts. What societal factors contribute to the
shaping of one’s identity? What cultural stereotypes have been attached
to women? How have these stereotypes been upheld–or rejected–in Western
art and literature? Through our reading of critical essays, short
fiction, drama, and poetry and our examination of visual texts
(paintings, photographs, advertisements, films) we will explore these
issues. We will also consider the correlation between the literary and
visual arts–how they speak to and inform each other.
Credits: 3 s.h.
