Cíle předmětu
This course is designed to provide students with an understanding of the development, history and current state of Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender and Queer culture in the English-speaking world, in particular in the United States and United Kingdom. The main body of the course is divided into five modules, with each two-week module focusing on a specific historical period/topic. During the first week of the module, socio-historical and cultural aspects of the issue at hand will be addressed. During the second week of the module, a work of literature (novel, short story) that deals with the module's theme will be examined.
Výstupy z učení
Upon successful completion of the course, students will be able to discuss the writing of others with sensitivity and appreciation; have an understanding of Gay Studies and Queer Theory, particularly in an Anglo-American context; and be familiar with the key events, themes, and figures involved in those contexts from roughly 1850 to the present.
