This course departs from Patricia Hill Collins' term “motherwork,” which is reproductive labor that blurs the lines between private and public, family and work to ensure the survival of one’s family and collective community. You are invited to reimagine how maternal health, reproductive justice, and birthing justice frameworks intersect with motherwork. February 2023 data from the National Vital Statistics System states that maternal mortality rates decreased significantly per 100,000 births for White (14.5) and Hispanic women (12.4). However, the mortality rate for Black mothers (50.3) in the United States has not improved. How can this data help shift and reshape your imagination around the possibilities of recreating, restructuring, and rebuilding maternal health and reproductive health(care) networks? How can we define and practice maternal health when divisions between communities and institutions are dismantled? Alongside opportunities for community engagement, this space offers future maternal health (care) workers time to center joy through writing projects that follow Angela Davis’ guidance to “act as if it were possible to radically transform the world.” Student writing may include digital projects, policy proposals, autoethnography, films, and podcasts. Potential authors include Hortense Spillers, Saidiya Hartman, Christina Sharpe, Alice Walker, Audre Lorde, Jennifer Nash, and Moya Bailey. All first-year students who have taken Reintro and all students at the sophomore level or above are welcome.

The growth of the internet and social media since the 1990s has been associated with an explosion of identities and a perception that younger generations have redefined gender and sexuality online. This course will introduce students to critically examining that premise. Topics will include the transgender history of Silicon Valley, the Tumblr era, the rise of queer and nonbinary influencers, and the redefinition of political engagement on social media.

This course examines how conceptions of gender shape and are shaped by public policy in the U.S. We use varying theoretical and empirical perspectives to ask why gendered inequalities persist in access to health care, labor market opportunities and earnings, and other domains of social and economic life--as well as how they intersect with other axes of social difference, such as race, ethnicity, and sexuality.  We place the U.S. in comparative perspective and examine how the relationship between gender and inequality varies across capitalist democracies.

A course that examines how women's bodies are depicted in horror literature and film, asking: how are issues of race, class, national identity, and belonging illuminated through the genre and its ongoing fascination with gender and sexuality? Why do we return to women's bodies to illuminate our fears? Why do we represent women's bodies through the horror genre? Focusing on speculative fiction and film, we will investigate how women's bodies speak to issues of power and spectatorship through affects such as disgust, terror, titillation, and pleasure.

From its origins – in Socrates's homoerotic mythologies, in the poetry of pre-Islamic Arabia, and in the currents that crossed from medieval Al-Andalus into Italy and Southern France – love has been a paradoxical, transgressive phenomenon: mystical longing, counter-religion, con game, parlor game, alienation, or self-affirmation. Contemporary sociologists have reported its demise, brought about by too many right- and left-swipes. In this course we explore a few crucial moments in the history of love, from Socrates's female teacher, Diotima, to today's dating shows, and we'll bring a literary, a sociological, and an anthropological approach to the challenges posed by love's protean discourse. Works by Plato, Ovid, Saint Augustine, Majnûn, Ibn Hazm, the abbess Héloïse, Pierre de Marivaux, Simone Weil, Annie Ernaux. The course is conducted in French.

This course will serve as an intensive introduction to contemporary approaches to theories of gender and sexuality, and their relationship to cultural production and politics. Students will develop a historically situated knowledge of the development of feminist and queer scholarship in the 20th and 21st centuries, and consider the multiply intersecting forces which shape understandings of sexual and gender identity. We will consider both foundational questions (What is gender? Who is the subject of feminism? What defines queerness?) and questions of aesthetic and political strategy, and spend substantial time engaging with feminist and queer scholarship in comparative contexts. Students will be introduced to debates in Black feminism, intersectionality theory, third world feminism, socialist feminism, queer of colour critique, and trans* theory. We will read both canonical texts and recent works of scholarship, and the final weeks of the course will be devoted to thinking with our theoretical and historical readings against a selection of feminist and queer literature and cinema. No prior familiarity with the study of gender and sexuality is necessary.

This course investigates the relationship between capitalism, imperialism, gender, and sexuality. Imperialism and Sexual Politics in the Global South will introduce students to major debates about sexual and gendered minorities in African, Asian, Central-Eastern European, and Latin American societies, from the 19th century to the present day. Students are encouraged to challenge preconceived notions about so-called universal concepts, identities, modes of action, and political claims actually developed in the West, while critically engaging with their circulations and appropriation by some actors in the Global South. In addition to an analysis of specific identities (homosexual, gay, queer, trans, LGBT, and... Straight Heterosexual), this course will also interrogate the very notions of "gender" and "sexuality": are they always significant as structures of power over space and time.

What does it mean that until relatively recently, the center of queer/trans culture was the underground – a metaphorical space of illegality – and what are the political possibilities of such illegality? This seminar will consider how Black/trans fugitivity and interracial sex, trans identity theft and forgery, black market hormones and silicone injections, sex work, and mood-altering drugs defined same-sex desiring and gender-variant cultures during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Far from being a lawless place, we will analyze how life in the underground, including stints in prison, concretely shaped gender and sexual possibilities, subcultural codes of conduct, and practices of community-making.

Popular culture today is awash with apocalyptic and post-apocalyptic stories. Feminist literature, though, has been thinking about the end of the world since 1826, when Mary Shelley’s The Last Man imagined a pandemic wiping out almost the entire global population. The first apocalyptic novel in English describes the end of the world as we know it: in the wake of disaster, The Last Man pauses to assemble alternative forms of collective life. Students in this course will read contemporary feminist fiction that responds to The Last Man by pressing the genre of apocalyptic literature into dialogue with feminist politics. We will explore key generic preoccupations that are also foci of feminist thought: reproduction and the family; separatism and utopia; gender and the environment; the human and the posthuman. Across our readings, our focus will be the duality of apocalyptic literature as both critique of the existing order and as thought experiment with what might replace it. What is the role of apocalypse in the feminist imagination? How have feminist authors made use of a genre also historically characterized by fantasies of racialized violence and class conflict, orientalist projection, and sexist stereotype? Why—and why not—might it be valuable to feminism to imagine the end of things?

This course explores the interactions between sex, gender, and cyber-technologies, old and new. How do the internet, smart devices, robots and generative AI shape sex and gender? In turn, how do discourses of sex and gender shape technologies? This seminar will help students answer these questions by introducing them to debates within feminist theory, the historical development of gendered and sexed technologies, the embedding of these technologies in our everyday life and the aesthetics and ethics of such technologies as seen in film and media. We will explore how AI, algorithms, and machines raise complex questions around the ethics, politics, and epistemologies of sex and gender. Through readings of key academic texts, films, and ethnographies, we will try to gain a full picture, through discussion, of what a gendered cyberscape looks like and how it might come to look otherwise. By understanding such technologies as instruments of power, we will analyze how this power is applied differentially across different marginalized groups and in different regional contexts. Further, we will consider how technologies enter our intimate spaces and reshape our desires and pleasures.

Performance art is provocative and often controversial because it troubles, without dissolving, the distinction between art and life. Not just a matter of activating bodies or spurring participation, performance art asks what kinds of actions count as worthy of attention in contemporary culture. Studying performance art provides a unique introduction to art history because it allows us to rethink established art historical concerns with representation, form, perspective, and materiality, while at the same time offering critical insight into the forms of attention that structure everyday life. In this introduction to performance art and its history, we will explore how performance art addresses ingrained assumptions about action and passivity, success and failure, embodiment and mediation, “good” and “bad” feelings, emancipation and dependency. The study of performance art invites transdisciplinary approaches. Students from across the university are welcome. Our attention to a wide array of artists and practices will be supplemented by readings in art history and art criticism as well as diverse theoretical approaches.

In this course, we explore different understandings of "love" and the way that film has dealt with the concept as a medium. We explore a variety of approaches to the question of "love" - from the agapic to the familial to the romantic - through a series of interdisciplinary readings ranging from philosophy to anthropology. We will also equally explore the question of how film has engaged with the question of love as a concept, and what depictions of human affection - from the general to the personal - it has offered us. Screenings are required for this course. Lab fee: $50

In this course we will explore how literature and film depict the material relationships between our human bodies and more-than-human worlds within and around us. We will consider not only how the classical elements (earth, air, fire, water) are media and how they connect our individual bodies with other bodies, but how the body itself is a medium. We will examine a range of ecologically conscious literary texts and films from the German and Nordic worlds as they engage themes including elementality, the nuclear age, the Anthropocene, and queer ecologies.

What does it mean to be “other,” and how can reading about experiences of otherness affect our understanding of historical moments? In this interdisciplinary survey of contemporary Italian literature, students will read through the lens of “the other” in order to highlight both the milieu of lived experiences (often lived by the authors themselves) outside of sociocultural ideals, and the role they play within modern Italian canon. Combining gender studies, animal studies, posthumanism, and other theoretical frameworks, students will examine works from authors such as Sibilla Aleramo, Carlo Levi, Elena Ferrante, Igiaba Scego, and directors Vittorio De Sica, and Alice Rohrwacher. Taught in English—students wishing to do coursework in Italian should register for AS.214.363 (02).

This seminar investigates the contours of scientific dialogue in early modern Italy through the figure of Galileo Galilei and his intellectual milieu. We will examine how literary culture shaped the circulation of new ideas, and how women—whether as poets, patrons, or correspondents—participated in the exploration and communication of scientific knowledge. Readings include selections from Galileo’s scientific writings and extensive correspondence, alongside literary and artistic texts that illuminate the cultural contexts in which his ideas were produced, debated, and disseminated. By situating Galileo within academic, courtly, and cultural networks, the seminar considers the reciprocal relationship between scientific inquiry and literary production, with particular attention to how gender shaped access to, and participation in, intellectual life.

This course focuses on writing with/for/about natural resource issues and scientific research. This writing class prepares students for travel to Sri Lanka, in the summer of 2026, to study Human-Elephant Conflict (HEC) while learning about the health of communities around Wasgamuwa National Park. During the spring of 2026, we’ll work with community collaborators in the Baltimore area to address their content production needs and identify spaces and places for text production/revision while also learning about HEC and Sri Lanka. Additionally, we’ll explore ethical representations of data and synthesize complex arguments into public facing documents. In late May of 2026, we will travel to Sri Lanka for two weeks to work alongside the Sri Lanka Wildlife Conservation Society (SLWCS) – a non-governmental organization committed to saving elephants by helping people – in the Mahaweli Development Project (MDP): a key agricultural region, which has a high rate of both HEC and chronic kidney disease. Students will spend their mornings mapping elephant movements and surveying farmers about elephant related incidences. We’ll also meet with faculty and researchers from the University of Colombo, University of Peradeniya, American Institute for Sri Lanka Studies, and other organizations; these hosted workshops will expose students to new research networks, contemporary scholarship, and help them develop an understanding of collaboration and global scholarship. Additionally, we’ll visit sites of ecological and historical importance. By the end of the trip, students will have worked with GIS databases and technology, sociology and anthropology field methods, and the process of community and public engaged research. After our return from Sri Lanka, students will propose their own research project. Enrollment by permission only. Application required; email [email protected].

Has the Cold War truly ended? What does it mean to end a war? This course invites you to critically examine the Cold War through the lenses of sexuality and inter-Asia. While the general consensus is that the Cold War has concluded, this notion of an absolute “end” has continuously faced challenges in new Cold War studies, particularly posed by scholars across regions and areas within “Asia.” What are the imperatives of these challenges? Simultaneously, growing feminist scholarship on sexual politics reveals the ways in which sexuality serves as a pivotal arena in the construction and transformation of Cold War politics, shaping our ordinary lives. How are possibilities for intimacy and alternative futures woven under seemingly endless conditions of war? Situated at the intersection of sexual politics and inter-Asia methods, drawing from a diverse range of interdisciplinary texts, literature, and visual materials, we explore postcolonial, feminist, and queer discussions surrounding the changing nature of Cold War politics. These discussions engage critically and expand upon the traditionally Western-centric understanding of war, peace, and Asia.
