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intersexuality, historical documents of sexological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