Political secrets call to mind spies like James Bond or Jason Bourne. What if the protagonist of the drama of political secrets is not some fantastical secret agent, but you? Drones, hackers, and secret court hearings have become part of our infrastructure of knowledge-making and governing. This is done in your name, to keep you safe. This course will explore the relationship between political secrets, transparency, knowledge, and individuality. We will discuss literary texts like the story of Judas, In Cold Blood, and A Most Wanted Man, investigative journalism about Wikileaks and the Snowden documents, and films like Zero Dark Thirty and Imitation Game. In the end, we all have to choose which secrets to tell, which to keep.

We are our experiences, but we're also our reflections of those experiences. So honest reflection about our thoughts and actions allows us to constantly invent and reinvent ourselves. In this course we'll explore the personal essay, focusing on how and why writers frame experiences as they do. As thinkers, we'll consider the practice of critical reflection, learn to contextualize our experiences, and become more conscious of the ways in which we see the world. As writers, we'll study narrative craft, including scene, dialogue, metaphor and character development. Our reading will feature Jamaica Kincaid, Eula Biss, James Baldwin and David Foster Wallace, among others. Through our workshops, we'll learn how to be generous, empathetic, and constructive readers of our peers' work.

In this course we¿ll draw on the everyday stuff of life. We will look at how authors such as Annie Dillard, James Baldwin, David Sedaris, John Steinbeck, and James Thurber have taken small moments, faint memories, and everyday experiences and transformed them into lasting works that speak to the human condition. Our exploration will be supplemented by works of street photographers such as Alfred Stieglitz and Henri Cartier-Bresson and cinema-verité documentarians such as Agnes Varda and Ross McElwee. In-depth discussions and writing assignments will allow students to mine the minutiae of the everyday, and workshops throughout the term help hone their writing to create clear and illuminating pieces.

Environmental crises, artificial intelligence, and the cognitive sciences urge us to abandon our human-centered mindset and adopt a post-human perspective. But how can we get outside our own heads and think like a post-human? Can we reason like machines? See the world the way a bat does? Or share consciousness with another being. In this course we'll examine the extended mind in Memento and Shakespeare's Hamlet, bio-enhancement in the television show Fringe, mindlessness in Shaun of the Dead, and intelligent environments in such video games as Portal 2. Students will extend their own thinking in essays that examine these topics from artistic, philosophical, and cultural perspectives.

This course examines literature, television, film, and radio concerning disease outbreaks in order to consider how humans manage disease on an individual and societal level. How do fictional representations of outbreaks speak to ongoing debates about international aid work, quarantine procedures, and mandated vaccinations. Course materials may include Albert Camus's The Plague, Margaret Atwood's Oryx and Crake, Siddhartha Mukherjee¿s The Emperor of All Maladies, episodes from House, M.D., TV mini-series Angels in America, and films from the X-Men series.

Why have Asian Americans been held up as a model minority while African Americans have been disparaged? How do African American and Asian American experiences of race and gender inform each other? In 2013 activist Suey Park used #BlackPowerYellowPeril to promote a vision of interracial alliance going back to the great anti-slavery orator Frederick Douglass's defense of the Chinese. Taking the turn-of-the-century Yellow Peril and the mid-century Black Power movement as racialized embodiments of white American fear, this course will trace literary points of contact, conflict, and coalition across these two racial formations. Possible content includes political writings by Malcolm X and Chairman Mao, novels by Toni Morrison and Maxine Hong Kingston, movies like Enter the Dragon, and music such as the Wu-Tang Clan's.

Additional Information
How did women writers around 1800 use and change the images of women's sexuality and creativity found in the major Romantics? Gender and individuality were newly constructed in literary genres flourishing in England at the time of the Revolution in France: the novel, drama, poetry, letters, and private journals. We will read John Keats as well as Jane Austen, and some works by the generation of writers they both relied on and reacted against. We will see how in British Romantic literature, re-imagining femininity was closely tied to a new sense of time and history.

Additional Information
Blood is everywhere. From vampire shows to video games, our culture seems to be obsessed with it. This seminar examines the power of blood in the early modern period as a figure that continues to capture our imagination, not only as a marker of racial, religious, and sexual difference and desire, but also as a dramatic player in its own right. How does a politics of blood appear on stage when populations are being expelled and colonized for reasons of blood? In the course of trying to answer this and other questions, we will read plays by Shakespeare, Webster, Kyd, Cervantes, Lope de Vega, and Calderón de la Barca. Topics include honor, revenge, purity, the body, sexuality, conversion, and death.
