ARCHAEOL BEFORE THE BIBLE
Please note that this is not a class on “biblical archaeology”. It is a course about the politics of archaeology in the context of Israel/Palestine, and the wider southwest Asia region. This course provides a critical overview of prehistoric archaeology in southwest Asia (or the Levant - the geographical area from Lebanon in the north to the Sinai in the south, and from the middle Euphrates in Syria to southern Jordan). It has been designed to appeal to anthropologists, historians, and students interested in the Ancient Mediterranean and Middle Eastern Studies. The course is divided into two parts. First, a social and political history of archaeology, emphasizing how the nature of current theoretical and practical knowledge has been shaped and defined by previous research traditions and, second, how the current political situation in the region impinges upon archaeological practice. Themes include: the dominance of "biblical archaeology" and the implications for Palestinian archaeology, Islamic archaeology, the impact of European contact from the Crusades onwards, and the development of prehistory.

DAILY LIFE
Prerequisites: No prerequisites. Department approval NOT required. In his poem A Few Days, James Schuyler reflects A few days / are all we have. So count them as they pass. They pass too quickly / out of breath. Before we know it, as Schuyler says, Today is tomorrow. This course will encourage us to slow down time and document today while it is still today. One of the courses main points is to pursue the ordinary, and to recognize that the ordinary -- whether presented as poems, essays, stories, fragments, etc. -- can become art. Assignments will provide broad examples of how to portray dailiness. Each week you will write a short piece (1-3 pages) that responds to these assignments while engaging your own daily life. The form is open. You could, for example, write a poem or story with a brief critical preface, or you could compose an essay that explores formal and/or thematic qualities. You can also create multimedia work. The important thing is to treat the materials we will read as springboards into your own artistic practice.

Welcome to the Incarcerated Yet Inspired, a cross-genre, creative writing seminar. Over the course of this semester, we will conduct a close reading of literary works that are based on the lives of individuals who have been ostracized, incarcerated, and isolated from their communities. While some of the writers we will study have been personally affected by the criminal justice system, others have drawn upon their research, observations, and experiences working in prisons to tell a compelling story. Through our weekly analysis and discussion, we will explore the thematic elements and artistic choices each writer employs in their work. We will also challenge our existing thoughts about prisons as an institution and develop a better understanding of how the prism of art and justice can be valuable to you as writers.

Inhabiting Form: Writing the Body
The body is our most immediate encounter with the world, the vessel through which we experience our entire lives: pleasure, pain, beauty, horror, limitation, freedom, fragility and empowerment. In this course, we will pursue critical and creative inquiries into invocations and manifestations of the body in multiple genres of literature and in several capacities. We will look at how writers make space for—or take up space with—bodies in their work. The etymology of the word “text” is from the Latin
textus
, meaning “tissue.” Along these lines, we will consider the text itself as a body. Discussions around body politics, race, gender, ability, illness, death, metamorphosis, monstrosity and pleasure will be parallel to the consideration of how a text might function itself as a body in space and time. We will consider such questions as:
What is the connective tissue of a story or a poem? What is the nervous system of a lyric essay? How is formal constraint similar to societal ideals about beauty and acceptability of certain bodies? How do words and language function at the cellular level to build the body of a text? How can we make room to honor, in our writing, bodies that have otherwise been marginalized?
We will also consider non-human bodies (animals & organisms) and embodiments of the supernatural (ghosts, gods & specters) in our inquiries. Students will process and explore these ideas in both creative and analytical writings throughout the semester, deepening their understanding of embodiment both on and off the page.

Queer Caribbean Critique
QUEER CARIBBEAN CRITIQUE
This seminar analyzes the different critical approaches to studying same-sex desire in the Caribbean region. The region’s long history of indigenous genocide, colonialism, imperialism, and neo-liberalism, have made questions about “indigenous” and properly “local” forms of sexuality more complicated than in many other regions. In response, critics have worked to recover and account for local forms of same-sex sexuality and articulated their differences in critical and theoretical terms outside the language of “coming out” and LGBT identity politics. On the other hand, critics have emphasized how outside forces of colonialism, imperialism, and the globalization of LGBT politics have impacted and reshaped Caribbean same-sex desires and subjectivities. This course studies these various critical tendencies in the different contexts of the Anglophone, Francophone, Hispanophone, and Dutch Caribbean.

VIENNA STORIES
Prerequisites: (GERM UN3002) Students explore film, podcasts and digital technology as tools for analyzing culture, language and identity. Integrated in this course is an in-person, on-site segment involving faculty leading study abroad in one of Europe’s most diverse cities: Vienna, Austria. During a one-week stay in Vienna during the spring break, students will put their German-language, filming and digital technology skills to use and gather ethnographic material to produce a short German-language documentary film on identity, the notion of homeland, and stereotypes. Live encounters with native Viennese as well as with recent migrants from Turkey, Ukraine, Poland, former Yugoslavia, and/or Syria in formal and informal settings and a field study project will serve as the main sources for the video. After the on-site and out-of-classroom segment, students will edit their film material and present the final video in the class, Advanced German II: Vienna now and then, which will take place during the same semester. A course website will be created to host final video projects for future reference. Student videos will thereby serve as authentic classroom material for German courses at Barnard and elsewhere. This course includes a one-week study abroad project in Vienna during spring break.
Due to Barnard's COVID 19 travel abroad restrictions, the originally planned study abroad week during the spring break 2021 will not take place in Vienna. Instead the interviews with migrants living in Vienna will be conducted online over Zoom during the spring break of 2021. A non-obligatory one week non-credit experiential program in Vienna in connection with this course might be offered April 24th- May1st, 2021 depending on Barnard's study abroad regulations for the summer.

RENAISSANCE ENGLAND AND THE POETRY OF EX
In this seminar, we will study English Renaissance poetry in light of the period’s obsession with the experimental. Prior to the English Renaissance, “experiment” was simply a synonym for “experience.” But in the mid-sixteenth century, the term begins a curious shift, taking on a new, far different meaning: an “experiment” becomes an active process, a way of creating new knowledge not by passively observing the world but by acting on it and studying the results. While best known today for its lasting influence on the study of science, this shift produced a culture of experimentation that pervaded England in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, provoking social and cultural experiments that tested and challenged political structures, religious practices and identities, and accepted knowledge about the natural world and humanity’s place in it. At the same time, the culture of experiment extended into literature: Renaissance poets experimented, with dizzying frequency, with new forms, genres, techniques, and subjects to produce novel understandings about what a poem was and what sorts of things it could do; poetic experiments, in other words, became a way of responding to and influencing social and cultural experiments. Poets, like their scientific counterparts, did not limit themselves to observing and describing the world around them––they in turn experimented on it through their written work, testing new forms and new techniques of writing as methods for describing this new culture of experiment.

Beyond City Limits: Considering the Coun
Countryside in Ancient Ro
Through an interdisciplinary study of ancient literary and archaeological evidence, as well as papyri, inscriptions, and artwork housed at Columbia and the Metropolitan Museum of Art, this research-driven seminar considers the cultural, social, and economic histories of rural populations across the empire. Beginning with the foundation of Rome, we will consider how its continued expansion through military conquest led to a crisis in the Italian countryside which helped stoke the flames of civil unrest in the 3rd-2nd centuries BCE. After surveying how the countryside was transformed into a metaphor of peace under the Roman emperors, we will then turn to several of Rome’s provinces (including Egypt, North Africa, and Britain) as case studies for specific issues in rural history. By examining the Roman countryside in this way, we gain a deeper understanding of how its rural inhabitants affected, and were affected by, Roman rule. This course considers how a government, ruling from the decorated buildings of its city centers, used and abused its distant rural territories for economic and political gain, and contemplates the ways in which inhabitants responded and adapted.

THE AMERICAN PRESIDENCY
This course explores the role of the presidency in U.S. politics. Presidents have long been at the center of politics, yet the nature of the presidency has changed dramatically over time. The first part of the course will examine these long-run changes. It begins with debates over the form of the presidency at the U.S.’s founding and examines how the institution has been altered – and with what effects – at key historical moments. Having gained foundational historical knowledge during the first part of the course, the course’s second part will focus on various theories of the presidency. These theories primarily address, in various ways, one primary question: which factors best explain presidential “success”? By the end of the course, students should be able to systematically assess contemporary presidential politics using various scholarly theories and by putting the president’s actions into a broader historical context. The course, occurring during the 2020 presidential primaries, will also include “sidebars” in which we will discuss the election.

The Art & Politics of Memory in Latin Am
The Art & Politics Latin
Course Description
How do societies that have gone through long-term political violence, civil war, and military dictatorship deal with human rights abuses in their aftermath? Through what mechanisms do they struggle to restore peace and democracy, pursue truth and justice, and advocate for memory and reconciliation? This seminar will tackle these questions to understand, assess, and critique the battles over memory that shaped Latin American countries following the brutal violence that took place since the mid-20th century up to the present. Examining the concept of “political struggles for memory,” in which diverse individuals and social groups compete to establish their meanings of the past events to structure the present, we focus on four case studies: Guatemala, Chile, Argentina, and Peru. We will approach these cases using diverse source materials from a wide range of academic reflections and cultural productions–memoirs, testimonial biographies, films, visual arts, music, and performances–to examine how decades of violence and atrocities are being remembered and dealt with since the return to democracy. The course will interest in students of humanities, social science, arts, human rights, politics, literature, and creative writing projects because of its interdisciplinary approach. No prior knowledge is necessary.

GENDER, SEXUALITY, AND SCHOOL
Broadly, this course explores the relationship between gender, sexuality, and schooling across national contexts. We begin by considering theoretical perspectives, exploring the ways in which gender and sexuality have been studied and understood in the interdisciplinary field of education. Next, we consider the ways in which the subjective experience of gender and sexuality in schools is often overlooked or inadequately theorized. Exploring the ways that race, class, citizenship, religion and other categories of identity intersect with gender and sexuality, we give primacy to the contention that subjectivity is historically complex, and does not adhere to the analytically distinct identity categories we might try to impose on it.

Court Cultures 350-1750
The course provides a broad survey of court societies and cultures as they grew and spread their influence in premodern world, especially South Asia, Africa and the Middle East. We will study Indic, Persianate and Islamicate cultural formations in the courtly sphere and discuss the larger trends that facilitated their emergence. Rather than moving chronologically from ‘early medieval’, ‘medieval’ to ‘early modern’ periods we will move thematically looking at the ways in which the court functioned as an institution and enabled particular cultural and intellectual practices. One of the major sub-themes that we will discuss covers the idea of genres and recording practices. What were the modes of courtly expression of the past? How did such practices shape the idea of ‘history’ in the premodern world? We will locate the institution of the court within a network of relations with other political institutions – most importantly the Hindu, Islamic and Buddhist religious centers. Along with this, we will consider ways in which kings, queens, courtiers, courtesans, poets, scholars, concubines and religious persons contributed to the flourishing of ‘court aesthetics’ and laid the foundations of political style and governance in premodern South Asia, Africa and the Middle East. Among primary materials, we will study political poems, plays, prose chronicles and courtly manuals in understanding the nature of political rule. This is an introductory course and prior knowledge of South Asia, Africa and the Middle East – either its languages, geographies or histories – is not required.

British Literature to 1500
This course will introduce some of the most fascinating texts of the first eight hundred years of English literature, from the period of Anglo-Saxon rule through the Hundred Years’ War and beyond—roughly, 700–1500 CE. We’ll hit on some texts you’ve heard of –
Beowulf
and selections from Chaucer’s
Canterbury Tales
– while leaving time for some you may not have encountered – Marie de France’s
Lais
and Margery of Kempe’s
Book
. Along the way, we’ll also hone skills of reading, writing, and oral expression crucial to appreciating and discussing literature in nuanced, supple ways. If you take this course, you’ll discover how medieval literature is both a mirror and a foil to modern literature. You’ll explore the plurilingual and cross-cultural nature of medieval literary production and improve (or acquire!) your knowledge of Middle English. Plus, you’ll flex your writing muscles with two papers.

Pandemics: A Global History
With an interdisciplinary perspective, this course seeks to expand the understanding of past pandemic crises and recent, lived pandemics such as COVID-19. COVID-19 has brought up urgent questions about how we can understand and historicize pandemics and trace the changing relationship between disease and its vectors, humans and their environments. This course seeks to expand the understanding of past and recent pandemics through a historical lens that traces the deep seated racial and class disparities, social and cultural stigma, and political responses and control that they were expressed and deployed during these historical crises. It seeks to understand and analyze pandemics as representing complex, disruptive and devastating crises that effect profound transformations in ideas, social and economic relations and challenge interdependent networks and cultures. Pandemics are balanced in a global-local flux between dramaturgic, proliferating, contagious outbreaks; and endemic, chronic infections that have prolonged periods of latency before again remerging through new transmissions. They also serve as a crucial lens to analyze a range of historical connections, ensions and movements ranging from colonialism and the politics of borders, global capitalism and labor, migration and mobility, decolonization and development, and neoliberalism and global health politics.

SEMINAR URBAN EDUCATION
This seminar serves as the capstone course for students pursuing the Education Studies minor/special concentration or the Urban Studies major/concentration with an Urban Education Specialization. The Seminar in Urban Education explores the historical, political and socio-cultural dynamics of urban education in the U.S. context. Over time, a range of social actors have intervened in the “problem” of urban education, attempting to reshape and reform urban schools. Others have disputed this “problem” focused approach, arguing that policy makers, teachers, and researchers should start from the strengths and capacities located in urban communities. Despite decades of wide ranging reform efforts, however, many urban schools still fail to provide their students with an adequate, equitable education. Seminar in Urban Education investigates this paradox by pursuing three central course questions: 1) How have various social actors tried to achieve equity in urban schools over time? 2) What are the range and variation of assets and challenges found in urban schools? and 3) Considering this history and context, what would effective reform in a global city like NYC look like? Students will engage these questions not only through course readings and seminar discussions, but through a 40-hour field placement in a New York City public school classroom, extra-curricular program, or other education based site.
