F16-ENGLISH-187G-01 : Queer Lives: LGBT Memoirs of the Past 100 Years. 2016 Fall
Abstract/Contents
- Course Description
- The course will examine LGBT autobiographical writing from roughly 1900 to the present. The focus will be on how Gay and Lesbian writers have adapted to longstanding cultural disapproval and the stigmatizing, often bitter constraints of the "Closet." We will also examine what happens to the memoir form when social taboos against homosexuality (and/or transgenderism) come to be relaxed or overturned--as has been the case in many western societies in the new millennium.
