Credits:	3.0 [max 3.0]
Grading Basis:	A-F only
Typically offered:	Every Spring

This course examines modern literature and film of the Palestinian people both for artistic significance and interactions with the broader historical and political situations confronted by Palestinians.

Ultimately, this leads us to a number of questions: what is the relationship between history/politics and art? Can artistic texts transcend the historical and political contexts in which they are produced? How has artistic production functioned within the context of Palestinian statelessness, exile, and anti-colonial struggle?

CSCL 3211 - Global and Transnational Cinemas (GP)

Credits:	4.0 [max 4.0]
Course Equivalencies:	02732
Typically offered:	Every Fall & Spring

Since the end of the Second World War and the process of decolonization, cinema has entered a phase that has left behind the limitations of national cinematic traditions. This conception of a world cinema is not, however, an unproblematic one. Although conceived as an alternative to American cinematic hegemony, the very notion of ?the world? in world cinema locates its centers of education and exhibition in Western Europe and North America. This course seeks to question the critical potentials of global and transnational cinema as alternatives to American and Western European cinematic. It does so by looking at the ideological and historical underpinnings of global and transnational cinema within creative projects that critique national traditions in cinema and the hegemonic force of (neo) colonial centers of art and culture. Here the course looks at the emergence of the Italian Neo-realism, the French New Wave, and Third Cinema. It will also examine the difficult birth of pan-African cinematic movements and their struggle with both European colonialism and the rise of post-colonial dictatorships. Counter-hegemonic and experimental movements in film, such as the L.A. Rebellion and Fluxus will also allow us to understand how opposition to Hollywood style could exist within the very centers of cultural power and reach out to larger global communities. While providing this historical and political overview, this course will also question the role of the international film festival circuit as the central environment for the presentation and critique of global cinema. Festivals such as Cannes, Venice, Toronto, Sundance, and Shanghai have grown to be centers of cultural capital and industry that, in as much as they showcase the best of cinema, also anchor it within larger global networks of distribution and finance. Ove the semester, students will think about the innovative possibilities of transnational production and distribution while critical understanding how these emerge from within economic structures and, increasingly digital, means of distribution to a global audience. Student Learning Outcomes At the conclusion of this course you will be able to: Approach cinema as a phenomenon that works between and through diverse cultural and linguistic traditions; Identify and critically evaluate the way cinema offers a critique of power; Develop a cross-disciplinary understanding of cinema as a political, economic, and cultural force for change; Integrate theoretical knowledge from the course in order to understand the complicated forms of production and distribution; Develop public presentation skills by leading class discussions; And, develop critical writing skills through the analysis of cinematic works and their place in a global system of transnational exchange. CSCL 3211 fulfills the Liberal Education core requirement for Global Perspectives: In this course students will gain a comparative perspective on the global medium of film. Understanding the ways that contemporary political debates and geopolitical conflicts and are expressed in the arts forms part of the background through which function effectively and ethically in a complex, rapidly changing world that is increasingly interdependent yet fraught with tensions and disparities. The Global Perspectives Theme assures that graduates from the University have had at least one significant academic exposure to the world beyond U.S. borders, and the opportunity to consider the implications of this knowledge for the international community and their own lives.

ENGL 3024 - The Graphic Novel

Credits:	3.0 [max 3.0]
Typically offered:	Every Fall & Spring

This course aims to read and study a specific kind of narrative we call "graphic novel." The term itself is often a point of contention, but the purpose of this course is not to defend the validity of the term or the medium. "Comic books" and "graphic novels" are not endangered animals. Rather, we will use this example of "sequential art" to think through the ways this genre intersects, uses, and informs various other narrative and artistic forms as well as the way the genre may be unique with its own way of producing meaning. Comics involve a hybrid strategy of image and text, so we will attempt to keep both aspects in mind throughout the semester, never forgetting that comics are neither purely "visual" nor purely "textual." Since comics are often wedded-in mainstream culture-with certain kinds of content (e.g. superheroes), we will also investigate the characteristics of different "genres" within comics, as well as various questions about literariness.

AAS 3301 - Asian America Through Arts and Culture (AH, DSJ)

Credits:	3.0 [max 3.0]
Course Equivalencies:	01863 - AAS 3301/EngL 3301
Typically offered:	Spring Even Year

The course focuses on the close analysis and interpretation of individual works by a range of modern and contemporary artists. Students will analyze, critique, and interpret these works in light of the historical and social contexts in which they were produced, their creation and uses of aesthetic form, and their impact on individuals and communities. Discussion, writing assignments, and oral presentations will focus on different ways of encountering and evaluating artistic work; for instance, students will write critical analyses and production reviews as well as dialogue more informally through weekly journal entries and online discussion forums. We will examine what it means to define artists and their work as being "Asian American" and explore how other categories of identity such as gender, sexuality, or class intersect with race. We will study how art works not only as individual creativity but also as communal and social practice; for instance, we look at the history of theaters, such as East-West Players or Pan Asian Repertory Theatre, that have sustained Asian Americans as actors, playwrights, and designers.

While this survey concentrates on the main developments of Greek art, an important sub-theme of this course this is the changes Classical visual culture underwent as it served non-Greek peoples, including the role it played for Alexander and his successors in forging multiethnic, globally minded empires in Western, Central and South Asia. No background in the time period or discipline is expected and therefore this class will also serve as an introduction to interdisciplinary study of art history and the classical world. A number of art historical methodologies will be introduced in order to not only give students a useful background in art history but to give them the tools to think as art historians and incorporate related visual and textual evidence meaningfully into their writing.

Credits:	3.0 [max 3.0]
Course Equivalencies:	02537
Typically offered:	Periodic Fall & Spring

A Chicana/o has been described as a Mexican-American with a political sense of identity that emerges from a desire for social justice. One journalist bluntly stated, "A Chicano is a Mexican-American with a non-Anglo image of himself" (Ruben Salazar, Los Angeles Times, 1970). This identity emerged through the Chicano Movement, a social and political mobilization that began in the 1960s and 1970s. The Chicano Movement witnessed the rise of community-based political organizing to improve the working conditions, education, housing opportunities, health, and civil rights for Mexican-Americans. For its inception, the Chicano Movement attracted artists who created a new aesthetic and framework for producing art. A major focus of Chicana/o artists of the 1960s and 1970s was representation, the right to self-determination, and the role of art in fostering civic and public engagement. This focus continues to inform Chicana/o cultural production. Social intervention, empowerment, and institutional critique remain some of the most important innovations of American art of the last several decades, and Chicana/o artists played a significant role in this trend.
