Race and Contemporary Arts

This is an interdisciplinary course that draws from a range of different art forms, as well as history and social science, to examine the ways in which race appears in the contemporary arts. Some central questions are: How does race structure the arts in terms of content and form as well as other levels of cultural and political representation?

VirtMedvl:Fict&Fant/MiddleAges

What is medieval? Most people learn very little about the foggy period that lies between the end of the Classical era and the start of the Renaissance. What we do learn usually consists of stereotypes. Jousting, chivalry, repression of women, religious fervor, medical ignorance, lice, Crusades, King Arthur, economic injustice, knights, ladies, and plague: such words, concepts, images predominate.
