Description of the Course:
This course will study in what ways the works of women writers transform women's experience and reorganize culture from the woman's point of view. We will focus on six British and American female writers--Charlotte Brontë, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Virginia Woolf, Emily Dickinson, Susan Glaspell, and Doris Lessing. Emphasis in the course will be given to close textual readings of their works. But their texts will be placed within the context of relevant biographical, historical, and theoretical contexts, particularly those that relate to the inscriptions of gender in their writing. The organizational framework of the course is: Reading and Gender, Women and Religion, Women Writers and the Literary Tradition, and Women, Money, Marriage and Madness.
Requirements:
The most important requirement is careful reading and thoughtful experiencing of the texts. In addition, you are required to take quizzes and two examinations, to give a group presentation, and to participate in the discussion.
