Course Description
This course will study general theories of gender and sexuality but with a special focus on the application of those theories to the study of media such as films, television, and popular music. We will survey the writings of Simone de Beauvoir, Julia Kristeva, Luce Irigaray, Laura Mulvey, Mary Ann Doane, Janice Radway, Donna Haraway, bell hooks, Chandra Talpade Mohanty, Judith Butler, Larry Gross, and many others. This course will require close reading of sophisticated texts.
