PHL 237 - Queer Theory (3 Cr.)
This course will trace various arguments for overcoming the categories “heterosexual” and “homosexual,” as defined in hetero-patriarchy, in favor of a more contemporary understanding of sexuality (and gender itself) as fluid and mediated by social forces. Readings will explore heterosexual normativity, sadomaschism, camp, queer identity, transgender, and relationships between queer and feminist forms of resistance. Prerequisite: one course in philosophy or permission of the instructor. Spring semester, alternate years. Grebowicz.
