Abstract
Queer Theory offers a series of tools to analyze suppositions about essential, stable or coherent sex/gender identities and categories. The course utilizes works of key theorists, novelists, short story writers and contemporary film makers to understand the field’s critical engagement with heteronormativity. Queer theoretical applications to textual analysis are discussed in terms of their meanings, uses and usefulness within our daily lives. Prerequisites: Any 200-level literature course and permission from instructor.
