Course Description:
From a rhetorical standpoint, what does it mean to argue there are multiple models of masculinity? Using rhetorical methodologies, where could we locate these masculinities: in bodies, social interactions, or culture? This course focuses on the relationship between rhetoric and masculinities. After delving into rhetoric's gendered history, we will investigate how scholars in different disciplines rhetorically construct men and masculinities through their writing and research practices. We will never lose track of how rhetoric also shapes our daily lives. In particular, we will explore how our experiences on campus connect to global discussions about masculinity. Students from any discipline will find productive opportunities to apply the study the rhetoric and masculinity to work in their majors, while learning how research is conducted in other disciplines. |
