Intersexuality and Sexology in Modern Literature and Theory<br>
<br>
This seminar examines conceptions of intersexuality at the <br>
turn of the (19th) century, coinciding with the growth of <br>
sexology, or the medicalization of sex. Reading includes <br>
novels with implicit and explicit representations of <br>
intersexuality, historical documents of sexological <br>
discourse, and theoretical texts that offer various <br>
frameworks within which to contextualize and critique <br>
the material. We question how various discourses both <br>
reflected, reinforced, or resisted the production of <br>
knowledge of “normal” sexuality and how counter-discourse <br>
challenged the institutionalization of the sexual <br>
dichotomy. </blockquote>
