  The course examines key artistic periods of American painting, sculpture, architecture, and decorative arts from the colonial settlements to the turn of the twentieth century (ca. 1650-1900). We begin with the colonial period and the rise of portraiture and history painting during the American Revolution, witnessing how artists like John Singleton Copley forge an indigenous American style. We then focus on genre as well as landscape painting, where we explore themes of politics, race, and reverence for the land. The class examines the American coming of age at the close of the Civil War and examines the careers of such artists as Winslow Homer, Thomas Eakins, John Singer Sargent, the American Impressionists, and architects H.H. Richardson and McKim, Mead & White.

Students learn to think critically about both hip hop culture, and about the historical, commercial, and political contexts in which hip hop culture took, and continues to take, shape. Particular attention is paid to questions of race, masculinity, authenticity, consumption, commodification, globalization, and good, old-fashioned funkiness.
1077 AMST-317-05 Curating the Present 1.00 LEC Cancelled SOC Q1
  Enrollment limited to 19 Waitlist available: N Mode of Instruction: Remote  
  NOTE: This course will take place throughout a 5-week session scheduled to end on June 23.
  We are living through a moment of rupture. Approaching this moment from a heritage perspective, what must we hold on to—physically, emotionally—to curate this story for future generations? How do we do this ethically and without a clear sense of narrative complete with start and end? Drawing lessons from critical heritage literature and a variety of case studies from the recent past, we will seek answers to these probing questions, engaging virtually with a variety of experts throughout the semester. For their final projects, students will create experimental “exhibition catalogues” oriented in real and imagined events and possible futures, or alternately describe why such their exhibitions are impossible—where curating the moment might best be encapsulated by blank spaces and spectral voids.
1008 AMST-329-05 Viewing The Wire 1.00 SEM Conway, Nicholas MW: 6:00PM-9:30PM N/A HUM Q1
  Enrollment limited to 15 Waitlist available: N Mode of Instruction: Remote

  NOTE: This course will take place throughout a 5-week session scheduled to end on June 23.
  Through analysis and dissection of David Simon's The Wire, this course seeks to equip students with the tools necessary to examine our postmodern society. The Wire seamlessly juxtaposes aesthetics with socio-economic issues, offering up a powerful lens for investigating our surroundings. Whether issues of unregulated free market capitalism, the bureaucracy of our school systems, politics of the media, false notions of equal opportunity, devaluation of human life, or a failed war on drugs, The Wire addresses the complexities of American urban life. Through a socio-political and cultural reading of the five individual seasons, students will be able to explore a multitude of contemporary problems.
1085 AMST-440-05 Autistic Blackness 1.00 SEM Cancelled HUM Q2

  How might autism and blackness be read alongside each other in a way that matters? By examining how the histories, lived experiences, and representations of autism and blackness intersect, it is possible to move beyond narrow understandings of both and create space for more diverse ways of being in our communities and in our world. What does it mean to recognize that autism is part of the neurodiversity of blackness historically and contemporaneously? What sort of creativity and meaning does the nonlabeled black autists presence add to our understanding blackness? We will examine this topic through an interdisciplinary lens that explores theoretical and historical perspectives of blackness, autism, and neurodiversity/neurodivergence, as well as primary sites of inquiry, including life writing, film, digital media, and performance/

  Enrollment limited to 15 Waitlist available: N Mode of Instruction: Remote  
  NOTE: This course will take place throughout a 5-week session scheduled to end on August 7.
  This course explores the deep roots of science fiction in human culture. Long before space ships, we were telling ourselves stories about superheroes, alien visitors, fantastic journeys, and utopian societies. We will pair "classic" texts and modern science fiction films--for example: the accounts of a messiah figure such as Mohammed with the film Dune; the story of the fight against a beast in the medieval tale of Beowulf and the film Alien, or Shelley's Frankenstein and the film Ex Machina. We will try to understand why these stories have such a hold on the human imagination and how science fiction has reshaped these fundamentally religious narratives with the trappings of technology.

  Henry David Thoreau was a pioneer of social distancing, but his work speaks to contemporary life in other ways, too. He followed his conscience into conflict with federal law. He studied the natural world so fastidiously that scientists use his journals to document global warming. Thinkers today still argue fervently about Thoreau, and there is even a video game about his time at Walden Pond. This course explores Thoreau's writings, especially WALDEN. Students will read Thoreau collaboratively, using an interactive digital text to engage in asynchronous dialogue in the margins of Thoreau’s works. They will also undertake independent research and writing within a thematic focus of their choosing, possibly including Ecology & Climate, Solitude & Sociality, Ethics & Political Resistance, or Transcendentalism & Eastern Philosophy.

  Shakespeare, most famous now as a dramatist, first gained fame for a poem written in quarantine: Venus and Adonis. Written during a plague, Shakespeare’s first major poem is a love story that spends most of its time on obstacles to love: physical and emotional distance, differences in social status, death. These themes recur throughout Shakespeare’s poetry, from his tragic tale of ancient Rome, Lucrece, to the twisted love triangle of the sonnets, with their complex commentary on friendship, trust, betrayal, and mortality. In addition to reading Venus and Adonis, A Lover’s Complaint, Lucrece, and the Sonnets in the historical context of Elizabethan England, students will use online databases to study original texts of Shakespeare’s poems, and develop an online “edition” of a Shakespearean sonnet

  Crime fiction has been an amazingly resilient and pliable genre, a cultural barometer registering revisions to cultural fantasies about knowledge and power, sex and gender, race and ethnicity, violence and freedom. Its character types are interwoven into the fabric of popular culture, from the detective to the sociopath, the femme fatale to the street tough. This course will trace an alternative American history through the brutal, lurid, and stylish crime fiction of the 20th century. We will explore its pulp roots through Dashiell Hammett, its modernist peaks with Raymond Chandler, its post-war weirdness in Chester Himes and Patricia Highsmith, and its contemporary renaissance by George Pelecanos.

  NOTE: This course will take place throughout a 5-week session scheduled to end on June 23.
  In contemporary societies there is an intimate contest between two kinds of social order: The rule of law and criminal organization. A remarkable instance may be found in the workings and metamorphoses of the Mafia. From its origins in Sicily, an agrarian society on the periphery of Europe, the Mafia has acquired intercontinental dimensions and a grip on high politics and finance capital. This shadowy phenomenon has been approached and explained in very different ways by historians, anthropologists, sociologists, economists, and political scientists. It has also been the subject of literature and film. We shall discuss outstanding examples of each approach and treatment. The purposes of the course are to make sense of the Mafia, to explore a basic problem of social order and to compare the different styles of reasoning and representation that characterize the various disciplines in the social sciences and humanities. Course requirements: seminar reports, several short papers, and full attendance and participation. (Listed as both LACS 272 and ITAL 272.)

  The Pacific Ocean has historically been regarded as a vast and prohibitive void rather than an avenue for integration. Yet over the last five centuries motions of people, commodities, and capital have created important relationships between the diverse societies situated on the "Pacific Rim." This course examines the history of trans-Pacific interactions from 1500 to the present. It takes the ocean itself as the principal framework of analysis in order to bring into focus large-scale processes -- migration, imperial expansion, cross-cultural trade, transfers of technology, cultural and religious exchange, and warfare and diplomacy. This "oceans connect" approach to world history brings these processes into sharp relief while also allowing for attention to the extraordinary diversity of cultures located within and around the Pacific.

  NOTE: This course will take place throughout a 6-week session scheduled to end on June 30.
  This course examines the role of global commodities — specifically sugar, precious metals, coffee, petroleum and lumber — in Latin America’s past and present. We will explore how the production of these commodities has impacted Latin America’s natural environment, structured the region’s relationship to the world, and created exploitative yet dynamic societies of slaves, peasants and working classes. We will examine how the worldwide spread of Latin American commodities has transformed global consumer demands, altering the way that people consume these commodities and changing the social and cultural meaning that they attach to doing so. Drawing on the interdisciplinary field of commodity studies, students will use methods from across the social sciences and the humanities to understand Latin America’s key role in the process of globalization.

  In contemporary societies there is an intimate contest between two kinds of social order: The rule of law and criminal organization. A remarkable instance may be found in the workings and metamorphoses of the Mafia. From its origins in Sicily, an agrarian society on the periphery of Europe, the Mafia has acquired intercontinental dimensions and a grip on high politics and finance capital. This shadowy phenomenon has been approached and explained in very different ways by historians, anthropologists, sociologists, economists, and political scientists. It has also been the subject of literature and film. We shall discuss outstanding examples of each approach and treatment. The purposes of the course are to make sense of the Mafia, to explore a basic problem of social order and to compare the different styles of reasoning and representation that characterize the various disciplines in the social sciences and humanities. Course requirements: seminar reports, several short papers, and full attendance and participation. (Listed as both LACS 272 and ITAL 272.)

  For some, society is nothing more than a random collection of people all making individual choices in a particular time and location. Yet, this worldview minimizes and overlooks the manifold levels of social life-- social systems, social interaction, and social selves--and our participation in them. Films represent one avenue of illuminating our social world because they mirror back to us key sociological insights of C. Wright Mills, Karl Marx, W.E.B. DuBois, and George Hebert Mead, for example. Students will apply the work of these scholars to films like Wall-e, Norma Rae, Friday Night Lights, and Ex Machina. Class time will involve discussion of films and applied exercises including an extensive role play simulation of Greenwich Village, 1913: Suffrage, Labor, and the New Woman, and a trip to the Tenement Museum in New York City.
