Expanded Course Description
Feminist theory tends to be broadly interdisciplinary and varied, so it is often thought that it is better to talk about feminisms rather than one feminism. In this course, we have the opportunity to read several texts in feminist theory from cover-to-cover. I have chosen our texts for their diversity of concerns, philosophical approaches, disciplinary “homes,” and time periods. Students will be introduced to the breadth and depth of feminist theory, its widely divergent subject matter and methods, but yet (at least to some extent) unified aspirations. A basic feminist tenet is that there is no subject that cannot be investigated from a feminist point of view, no way of framing the fundamental crisis-points of a society that cannot benefit from feminist intervention, and no disciplinary framework that cannot be enriched philosophically by a feminist analysis. A serious commitment to reading and active participation in class discussion (small group and/or whole class) is essential.
