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.

CHILDREN S LITERATURE

CHILDREN'S LITERATURE

This
history
of children’s literary narrative begins with the observation that the stories read and heard by children exercise immeasurable imaginative power.
Socially, ethically, culturally, psychologically, even politically,
much of who we are as adults –what makes us cry and what makes us laugh-- began in the first stories that absorbed us and gave us so much pleasure. Beginning with fairytales and folktales from across the
globe
, we will explore coming-of-age stories, domestic fiction designed to educate girls, adventure romance marketed to boys (and to men who thought of themselves as boys) and fantasy. We will look at how children’s literature explores questions of heroism,
gender
difference,
disability
, perspective, community, and resilience. We will consider narrative strategies such as setting, voice, and plot as well as the role of historical context, illustration and media adaptation. While our discussions will focus on fictional primary sources, we will also consider scholarship that helps see this material through a variety of theoretical perspectives. Readings may include fairytale selections from Europe, Asia, and Africa; Alcott’s
Little Women
and its American afterlife in Gerwig’s film
;
Stevenson’s
Treasure Island
and pirate narrative
;
Collodi’s and Disney’s
Pinocchio;
Taylor’s
Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry;
C.S. Lewis’s
The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe
and quest romance
;
Rowling’s
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone;
and

a selection of illustrated picture books

INTRO EA CIV: VIETNAM

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.
