From the queer avant-garde of Kenneth Anger and Su Friedrich, to The Kids are Alright and Glee, the queer in film and television is often conflated with gay and lesbian representation on screen. Instead of collapsing queer cinema into a representational politics of gay and lesbian film and television, we look at theories and practices that uphold what queerness means in a contemporary framework of America neoliberalism and transnational media.

This course is a general survey of Korean political, social, economic, and cultural histories from the mid-19th century through the present.

We will also consider modernization, nationalism, industrialization and urbanization, changing gender relations, the nuclear issue, and the Korean culture industry.

Who travels in China and for what reasons? What does a traveler write about -- the scenery of a particular location or the experience of a journey itself; the homesickness or the joy of traveling; the philosophical and spiritual insights or the political implications? Much of Chinese literature is composed from the perspective of one who is, or has been, on the road: whether as exile, pilgrim, soldier, pleasure traveler, or even shaman.
