*Outlaw Women*
In this course we will read and discuss literary novels that feature women who defy social norms: daring survivors, scholars, “whores,” queers, artists, “madwomen,” servants, revolutionaries. We will take a critical and transnational approach to issues of race, class, gender, sexuality, ability, and religion. Texts will include Toni Morrison’s /Sula/, Audre Lorde’s /Zami/, Marguerite Duras’ /The Lover,/ Jamaica Kincaid’s /Lucy/, Patricia Powell’s /The Pagoda/, and Azar Nafisi's /Reading Lolita in Tehran/. Students will write formal literary analysis,and narrative criticism. Together we will engage in some contemplative practice and study selected films.
