Cíle předmětu
This course explores various issues that Indigenous peoples in Australia have grappled with since colonial times. They include complex socio-historical and cultural encounters with settler populations, the history of (mis)representations in public and artistic discourses, the struggle for equality and recognition, the contemporary position of Aboriginal communities in Australia, land claims, urbanization, and cultural production. To analyze some of the most contested debates, examples from literature, film, historiography, journalism and social documents will be used to illustrate the complexity of representations of Indigenous Australians. Students will be required to read assigned texts and watch the films, give presentations, participate in class discussions, write regular response papers during the course and a final essay, incorporating critical analyses and theoretical vocabulary into their work. At the end of the course, students should be able to: gain deeper knowledge of the position of Indigenous peoples in Australia; appreciate the diversity of various Indigenous groups and communities; have a better understanding of the history of Aboriginal-settler relationships; be able to interpret various kind of textual/visual representations of Indigenous peoples in literature and film.
