This course is a study of literature using gender as the primary category of analysis. Viewing gender as a social construction, it explores such issues as gendered roles in society, interactions between private and public life, gender’s relation to canon formation, and individuals’ struggle to define their place in culture in the face of gendered expectations. It may focus on a region or nation, a time period, a theme, a representative individual, or some combination.
