Comparative Literature Course

This course will provide an introduction to the heterogeneous genre of literary works, focusing particularly on the areas of political, philosophical, and social implications and representations. Throughout the course, there will be some exploration on how literary and filmic portrayals of literary issues participate in a broader negotiation of political, ethical, national, and social geographies. Moreover, the course will also examine how these representations include the historical and cultural intersections of race, gender, sexuality, religion, and politics. In addition to the novels, short stories, and films, the course will also cover several secondary texts to provide a framework for clarifying and defining the relationship between literary text and the represented geographical and temporal spaces.
