Topics in Queer and Transgender Studies

Course #: wgs 350

Description:
This course provides a broad, multidisciplinary survey of topics in Queer and Transgender Studies while also exploring its possibilities and limits as a field of study. After examining foundational issues, texts, and tensions, we will focus on contemporary contributions to the field from disciplines across the arts, humanities, and social sciences. The course uses an intersectional analysis that simultaneously considers sexuality, gender, race, ethnicity, class, nation, ability, and other categories of identity and power. Our analyses will be grounded in a focus on the lives, struggles, and cultural production of queer and trans communities primarily in the United States but also across the world.
