Mindestanforderungen und Beurteilungsmaßstab
This course will encourage students to take a critical look at naturalized assumptions about masculinities. The texts addressed in class will be scanned for depictions of masculinity they offer to their audiences, their representations of male bodies, male sexuality and male stereotypes.
Prüfungsstoff
Students will work with multi-modal texts that put forward different representations of masculinity on a verbal and visual level. They will receive an introduction to the functional make-up of the two types of media approached in class and will then be asked to use different critical tools to deconstruct the masculinities at work in the texts. This critical reading of masculinities will be based on orientalism, psychoanalytical theory, identity studies and theories of agency and articulation.
