ENGL282.001 TOPIC: Denmark’s Cultural Legacy STUDY ABROAD Rees-White
(AIU)
Thor, Loki, and other Asgardians. Vikings. Hamlet. The Little Mermaid. Frozen. Disneyland. Lego. These are all touchstones of contemporary American pop-culture, and all have their origin in the same space: Denmark. During this study abroad class, we will be walking the streets of Copenhagen, Roskilde, and Billund, investigating the historical inspiration for these beloved stories, alongside their contemporary cultural legacy. Ultimately, our class will try to answer two questions: to what extent do we hold a personal cultural responsibility to understand where our favorite stories come from, and at what point does a work of adaptation move so far beyond the original concept that it is an entirely new work?

ENGL 437.J10 WOMEN WRITERS WEB ASYNCH Woertendyke
(Crosslisted with WGST437)
This course focuses on writing by women and feminist theory. We will be reading mostly creative non-fiction, essays, memoirs, and theory with a few pieces of fiction and poetry thrown in. We’re focusing on non-fiction for a few reasons: 1. It is an increasingly popular, used, and reimagined genre as the works we read demonstrate; 2. It gets at something especially complicated and nuanced about the experiences of women. The works we read are sophisticated and mature, that is, though shorter than you may be used to encountering they require intense focus and careful thinking. They also require you to immerse yourself in the writer’s experience and self-fashioning especially when you find yourself bracing against the writer’s opinions, values, and experiences. By mature I mean that the works we read deal with adult subject matter that includes love, sex, death, identity, politics, family, race, and all that is possible in a world that continues to not invite women’s voices to the table. This is not a historical survey, it’s an experiential and literary glimpse into the lives of contemporary women, their ideas, thoughts, and experiences.
