Anotace -
Využívaje znalostí, jež studenti nabyli v kurzu Aspekty genderu v literatuře I, se tento kurz věnuje genderové analýze literatury od poloviny 20. století do současnosti. Zabývá se třemi celky: literaturou odrážející dopad tzv. ?druhé vlny? feminismu v 60. letech 20. století, včetně děl Adrienne Richové, Doris Lessingové a Caryl Churchillové, literaturou odrážející kulturní a etnickou rozmanitost, jakou představují např. Toni Morrisonová, Sandra Cisnerosová či Alice Walkerová, a současnou literaturou autorek jako Margaret Atwoodová, Jeanette Wintersonová a Jackie Kayová. Tento kurz také seznamuje studenty s formami a proudy literární kritiky a interpretace, věnujími pozornost zobrazování mužů a žen, pojetí maskulinity a feminity či sexuální politice, včetně postmoderních interpretací genderu, jaké nacházíme např. u Judith Butlerové, Susan Bordo či Seyly Benhabibové.

Sylabus

Aspekty genderu v literature II
This semester’s focus is on literary texts, particularly as they relate to gender issues. There will be three thematic units of study: an historical overview of postwar writing, a focus on radical strategies from the "second wave" and an exploration of diversity. Fortunately we now have a class set of The Norton Anthology of Women Writers, which contains most of the literary texts we will be looking at during the course. All of the texts are short stories, some of them very short, apart from the Toni Morrison, which is longer. You will also be provided with some short very extracts from the secondary texts specified (the extracts are mainly from Modern Feminisms, ed. Maggie Humm) to provide background. Copies of all these secondary texts will be provided for you, mainly in photocopies and occasionally electronically.
