GRAPHIC AUTOBIOGRAPHIES AND BIOGRAPHIES

Autobiographical and biographical graphic narratives are perhaps the best known and most widely read graphic literary texts. Their combination of word and hand-drawn images afford creators a wide variety of formal and stylistic devices for depicting emergent identity, historical experience, trauma, memory and post-memory, among other themes. At the same time, the inherent subjectivity of the hand-drawn images, as well as the limitations of memory and post-memory, raise important questions about the authority and authenticity of these narratives. By closing analyzing some of the most prominent examples of autobiographical and biographical graphic narratives, students in this class will consider how creators have used the medium and the strategies they used to address its limitations when depicting lived, historical experiences. Our discussion of these autobiographical and biographical narratives will be supplemented by readings in the related academic scholarship, as well as by materials that the creators drew upon in the production of their graphic narratives. The reading list of graphic narratives will consist of
Maus, Fun Home
,
March
,
One Hundred Demons
,
The Complete Persepolis
and
Vietnamerica

Shakespeare I

(Lecture). This course will cover the histories, comedies, tragedies, and poetry of Shakespeare’s early career. We will examine the cultural and historical conditions that informed Shakespeare’s drama and poetry; in the case of drama, we will also consider the formal constraints and opportunities of the early modern English commercial theater. We will attend to Shakespeare’s biography while considering his work in relation to that of his contemporaries. Ultimately, we will aim to situate the production of Shakespeare’s early career within the highly collaborative, competitive, and experimental theatrical and literary cultures of late sixteenth-century England.

Corequisites: ASCE UN1377 This course provides a survey of Vietnamese civilization from prehistoric origins to the French colonization in the 19th century, with special emphasis on the rise and development of independent kingship over the 2nd millennium CE. We begin by exploring ethnolinguistic diversity of the Red River plain over the first millenium BCE, culminating in the material bronze culture known as the Dong Son. We then turn towards the introduction of high sinitic culture, and the region's long membership within successive Chinese empires. We pay special attention to the rise of an independent state out of the crumbling Tang Dynasty, and the specific nation-building effects of war with the Mongols and the Ming Dynasty, in the 14th and 15th centuries respectively. Our class ends with the French colonization of the region, and the dramatic cultural and intellectual transformations that were triggered as a result. Our course will interrogate Vietnamese culture as a protean object, one that is defined and redefined at virtually every level, throughout a history marked by foreign interest, influence, and invasion.
