EN 550 - Queer LiteratureCredits: 3
Queer Literature offers an exploration and examination of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer+ Literature. We will move chronologically through the texts, reading from a variety of time periods and cultures, representing the literary modes of poetry, fiction, drama, and creative nonfiction with a focus on Queer Literature. We will read and discuss both canonical and noncanonical Queer texts. The course will explore topics such as defining Queer literature, the conversation between the literary canon and Queer literature, the differences between and among lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgendered, and Queer+literature, and the changes in Queer writing over time. We will also read various supplementary critical, contextual, and theoretical texts provided in Canvas to give us context and further tools for analysis of the texts.
