Course Description

Ranging broadly from Ireland before World War I to America of the Roaring Twenties and England during the upheaval of the 60s, this course examines the dreams and spiritual aspirations that drive some of the most compelling works of English and American fiction and drama in the past century. The course examines how the works depict challenges related to gender, race, religion and class. The readings include: two short stories by James Joyce and some poems by W.B Yeats that capture the anxiety and upheaval of pre-WWI Ireland; The Great Gatsby, F. Scott Fitzgerald's classic tale about the American Dream and romantic fantasy; Lorraine Hansberry's play A Raisin in the Sun, which looks at Black American family life in the inner city; Nobel Laureate Doris Lessing's novella The Fifth Child, a chilling story of an ideal family in England during the 60s that gets disrupted by the birth of a monstrous child; England's finest playwright Tom Stoppard's comic masterpiece Arcadia, which spans two centuries while examining fundamental existential questions; the feminist poet Adrienne Rich's poems of love and protest.

Course Description
In this seminar course we read closely both the film texts and screenplays of Bruce Lee's entire cinematic oeuvre (five films, one posthumous) in order to look deeply into the culture, history and philosophy behind the martial art known as Kung Fu. Central to our investigations are inquiry into the development of the genre as a vehicle for cross-cultural (East-West) influence and inspiration, its etymological origins in habitus (skill achieved through practice), as well as Asian masculinity, femininity, and the challenges and possibilities of the Asian male film star for Western audiences.
