We begin with a unit on Sophocles’ <i>Antigone</i> to appreciate the respective strengths of two approaches of particular interest: 1) cultural constructivism/queer politics, beginning with Judith Butler’s <i>Antigone’s Claim</i>, and 2) the “new materialism,”
beginning with Luce Irigaray’s <i>Sexes and Genealogies</i>. We spend the rest of the quarter studying four mind/body concepts of perennial interest to feminist thought, especially literary thought: hysteria, melancholia, abjection and fetishism. For each
term, we consider foundational feminist definitions focusing on gendered corporeality, and more recent attempts to expand corporeal ethics to questions of global economy and environment. Authors include:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

This course focuses on the problem of divination (mantic practices) in their dual aspect as a set of intellectual orientations and a set of social institutions, and examines some of the many ways in which divination profoundly affected Greek culture. Topics
include: mantic practitioners and consultors; oracles, especially Delphi and Dodona; the independent mantis (military and otherwise), divination and gender, rhetorical aspects of divination, and divination, philosophy and systematic thought. Readings will
include relevant selections from Homer, Herodotus, and some inscriptional material. Part of each class will be devoted to reading Greek texts.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

postcolonialism in literary, media and cultural studies. We focus on the formation of minoritized subjectivities, transnational identities and migration, and on rethinking the center-periphery dynamic that has dominated the thinking on how art, literary and
cultural forms and knowledge are disseminated. Instead we look to minor-to-minor dynamics, the Global South, and triangulate the traditional First World-Third World axis by adding the post-socialist world back into postcolonial discourse. Theorists/critics
considered include Said, Jameson, Achebe, Ngugi Wa'Thiongo, Bhaba, Butler, Spivak, Derrida, Fanon, Morrison and many others. Students will have the opportunity to choose and present an article for the class to discuss that corresponds with their particular
research interests. Final term paper. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
