Course Description
This explores the contextual background of present-day European cinema. It is divided into three modules. The first module examines the image of the city as a setting, symbol, and socio-cultural organism. The second module delves into the depiction of the body in movies to address the image of the body not only as an embodiment of desires, needs, and sensations, but also as a site of political conflicts. The final module discusses the question of otherness with an analysis of migrant, diasporic, and eastern European films.

Course Description
This interdisciplinary course in Asian media studies bridges media studies and area studies to examine media in both broad conceptual terms and historically and geopolitically grounded ways. This course challenges existing paradigms within media studies that assume a North American context, and foregrounds media objects and practices that resist categorization. It also draws upon a rich array of secondary sources to survey existing methods and approaches to Asian media texts and phenomena. Topics covered include histories of media infrastructures; material culture; geopolitics of colonialism, imperialism, and regionalism; institutional histories of media production; analyses of popular and industrial media practices; questions of technology and capitalism; gender and fandom; and the constitutive role of media in shaping notions of modernity and environment.
