Course Description
This course examines the histories and representations of gender, seeking to understand how gender is constructed by societies, institutions, and individuals, through the critical analysis of texts, works of art, and public actions. Gender, its role, construction, and historiography are brought together by scholars across the school in an undergraduate interdisciplinary course. The operation of gender "as a tool of analysis" is examined in histories of the body, sexuality, medicine, religion, politics, institutions, and representations in a variety of texts and contexts which show the inherent instability and elusive nature of many gendered identities.

Course Description
This course expands and develops students' writing of narrative scripts to feature films. Students explore screenwriting techniques for this medium by undertaking to write either a treatment for a feature film or the first half of a feature film from the setup through to the midpoint. Building on the three-act structure, students consider other methodologies that may be more suitable such as the five-act structure and the six-stages of structure among others. Students explore the creation of fully realized characters, the best use of subtext, and the role of subplots. This course is designed to familiarize students with the process and procedures for developing and writing a feature film script aimed at development for the big screen.

Students examine both re-workings of the central historical narrative provided by Geoffrey of Monmouth and some of the stories of chivalry and adventure (and sometimes comedy) that accumulated around it.
