Theory, methods, and research in feminist, gender, and sexuality studies, with a special focus in the Spring quarter on queer cinemas around the world. Through a trans-regional and transnational selection of texts, we will engage with a range of queer cinematic forms and spectatorial practices that move us beyond the Euro-US focus of gender and sexuality studies and queer cinema courses. Students do not need to have a background in film studies. We will use media texts and readings to engage more broadly with a variety of research methodologies, close reading practices, writing strategies, and pedagogy. Seminar time will be equally distributed between the thematic focus on queer cinemas and student presentation of ongoing work from any disciplinary orientation and related to feminist, gender, and sexuality studies. Restricted to doctoral students. Repeatable for credit. Required for PhD Minors in Feminist, Gender, and Sexuality Studies (3 quarters min.).
