Overview of class

This seminar prepares graduate students to develop comparative research methods by studying interdisciplinary approaches across film and media, literature and language, race and ethnicity, and visual culture. In addition to reading theoretical and historical texts, students will engage with secondary material such as films, novels, and other cultural objects. Training in comparative studies is not required. Students are expected to produce original research by the end of the quarter.
