This undergraduate seminar course traces a possible pre-history of the genre we now know as science fiction. While science fiction is routinely tracked back to the nineteenth century, often to Frankenstein or The Last Man by Mary Shelley, this course looks at some earlier literary writings that share certain features of modern science fiction: utopian and dystopian societies, space travel, lunar travel, time travel, the mad experimental scientist, and unknown peoples or creatures. While the center of this course features texts associated with the Scientific Revolution of the seventeenth century (by Bacon, Kepler, Godwin, and Cavendish), it ranges back to the second century Lucian of Sarosota, and forward to the early nineteenth century with novels by Shelley.

Alan StewartThe Haitian Revolution (1791-1803), in which the enslaved in France’s richest Caribbean colony threw off their chains and defeated the European colonial powers, was a seismic event in modernity. As an “unthinkable” revolution that was silenced by later (according to Michel-Rolph Trouillot) history yet was ubiquitously discussed at the time, the Haitian Revolution calls into question the very meaning of an “event” and challenges the fundamental organizing terms of the modern era. In this class, we will study this revolution, its representations, and its legacies into the present. We’ll pay special attention to the archive that records the experiences of the Haitian revolutionaries themselves, from poems, songs, and plays to political texts, and we’ll also be interested in reactions from Romantic-era writers in Europe like William Wordsworth and Victor Hugo. How was the revolution written and expressed by its participants, and what can we learn from the depictions it solicitated in those reading about the event from afar? In the last weeks, the course will also take up important historical, literary, and philosophical treatments of the Haitian Revolution in the twentieth-century.
This course is open to advanced undergraduates and to graduate students. As a 4000-level seminar, you’ll be expected to produce a research paper related to the course material at the conclusion. Some reading knowledge of French would be helpful but is not required.

Joseph AlbernazErasmus of Rotterdam (d. 1536), arguably the single most influential public intellectual of the sixteenth century, was responsible for the educational and religious reforms that changed European culture in the early modern period and that are in many quarters still with us today. This course will feature the rhetorical assumptions and methods that shaped these reforms with an eye to the commonalities that narrowed the gap between the exercises of the schoolmaster, the efforts of the preacher, and the accomplishments of the literary artist.

Brent EdwardsWhat was the role of translation within medieval literary culture? How did translations among vernacular and cosmopolitan languages contribute to establishing those categories? This graduate seminar will marshal translation theory and practice, medieval and modern, to investigate language use and translation in the medieval West. With reference to current debates in the field, we will ask what ideas about translation and translations themselves can tell us about the multilingual ecosystem of Europe from the twelfth to the fourteenth century. We’ll read some of the most well-known works of medieval literature as well as more obscure texts. Though the course centers on medieval literature in English, French, and Latin, it also aims to instill the critical skills of literary criticism: debate, comparison, and keen-eyed evaluation of others’ arguments, both in class discussions and written assignments. Students will be invited to write a final paper that connects the investigations of the course to their own areas of interest.
Reading knowledge of (Old) French, Latin, and Middle English will come in handy, as will any other foreign language competencies – but these are not prerequisites.

Hannah WeaverThis graduate course offers an in-depth exploration of contemporary narrative theory, examining how stories function across different genres, media, and cultural contexts. Students should expect significant engagement with scholarship on narrative, borrowing from research in literary studies, psychology, anthropology, sociology, philosophy, film and game studies. Topics covered include story, plot, schema, time, space, character, agency, setting, frame, event, and action while also addressing the role of narrative in shaping personal and collective identities.

Dennis TenenThis course starts with three premises. Law plays a significant role in shaping the expressive media that represent our world to us. Those media in turn shape law and our experience of it, effectively forming us as legal subjects. But law and media may also act as conflicting domains of judgment, —spaces for the enactment of alternative visions of truth, authority, and justice. The course approaches questions of the relationship between these domains from the perspective of the humanities and social theory. This is not a class in which you will learn entertainment law, media regulation, or intellectual property as fields of legal practice. It is for those who wish to think historically, critically, and theoretically about film, media, and law.
As a workshop, the course has two aims: to explore new work on film, media, and law in conversation with scholars who are at the cutting edge of the field; and to collectively develop our own work in this vein. The guest scholars who will share their recent work with us represent the field’s diversity and richness. Their scholarship emerges from a variety of disciplines: anthropology, art and architecture, history, literature, music, philosophy, political theory, religion, theatre and performance, and (of course) film and media studies and law. What they share is a commitment to thinking about how law and media reflect, inflect, or challenge each other. The class will also serve as a workshop for developing student projects and professional skills with an eye to conference participation, thesis development, and possible publication. The last session will be dedicated to a mini-conference / workshop / celebratory finale in which students present their projects.
Enrollment is limited, but graduate students in any field and at any stage of study are welcome (as auditors or for credit), along with any other members of the scholarly community interested in attending.

Julie PetersThis course will examine the major debates, contested genealogies, epistemic and political interventions, and possible futures of the body of writing that has come to be known as postcolonial theory. We will examine the relationships between postcolonial theory and other theoretical formations, including post-structuralism, feminism, Marxism, subaltern studies, Third Worldism, Global South Studies, and Decolonial Theory. We will also consider what counts as “theory” in postcolonial theory: in what ways have novels, memoirs, or revolutionary manifestos, for example, offered seminal, generalizable statements about the (settler) colonial and postcolonial condition? How can we understand the relationship between the rise of postcolonial studies in the United States and the role of the U.S. in the post-Cold War era? How do postcolonial theory and its insights about European and American imperialism contribute to analyses of contemporary globalization?

Elizabeth WaltersThis is a historical survey of literature (mostly narrative) intended primarily for children, which will explore not only the pleasures of imagination but the varieties of narrative and lyric form, as well as the ways in which story-telling gives shape to individual and cultural identity. Drawing on anonymous folk tale from a range of cultures, as well as a variety of literary works produced from the late 17th century to the present, we’ll attend to the ways in which changing forms of children’s literature reflect changing understandings of children and childhood, while trying not to overlook psychological and formal structures that might persist across this history. Readings of the primary works will be supplemented by a variety of critical approaches—psychoanalytic, materialist, feminist, and structuralist—that scholars have employed to understand the variety and appeal of children’s literature.

James AdamsThe internet and digital technologies have profoundly impacted the way that comics and graphic novels are produced, distributed, and read because they no longer need to be produced and printed on paper and distributed to readers in that medium. A related development in this technological revolution is the emergence and proliferation of webcomics, a type of comic that has allowed creators to avoid having to rely on publishers for distribution and marketing. As Sean Kleefeld (2020) points out, webcomics differ from those digital comics and graphic novels which use the internet only as a means of distribution. For webcomics the creator’s intention lies at the root of this distinction as a webcomic’s creator intends for the web to be the only means of distribution. In addition, webcomics differ technologically, as they do not require proprietary software for reading. This course examines the webcomics revolution in a multifaceted way in order to understand how the internet and related technologies have allowed creators to produce and distribute comic narratives that address subjects neglected by the print and digital publishing industry. Because of webcomics absolute reliance on digital technologies for production and distribution, this course will consider those technologies as part of our investigation into what makes webcomics distinct from traditional print comics and graphic novels. As part of this investigation, we will look at how webcomics are built and distributed. We will therefore think about the ways that reading webcomics on a computer screen or smartphone differs from the experience of reading a printed comic or graphic novel. This will lead to a consideration of why webcomics are distributed in a single-page format as opposed to print and digital comics and graphic novels that can comprise hundreds of pages. We’ll think about how webcomic creators’ use of the single page as the smallest unit of information is not only connected to the production process but is also part of the need to use search engines and social media to help readers find and access the webcomics. To enhance these topical explorations, students will make webcomics and webpages to host them, in order to gain a practical as well as conceptual understanding. As the class considers these topics, the course readings will include selections from some of the most prominent webcomics in recent years. These selections have been chosen to represent a range of genres and page formats in order to allow students to consider how distribution via the internet has allowed proliferation of some genres that are otherwise poorly served by publishers of print and digital comics and graphic novels. Students in the course will read Jeph Jacques’s Questionable Content, Rebecca Cohen’s Gyno-Star, Tak’s Empathize This, Keith Knight’s The K Chronicles, and Kylie Summer Wu’s Trans Girl Next Door among others.

Benjamin BreyerPoetry-ish is a class examining how poetry speaks to, merges with, or embeds itself in other
genres in order to make a multimedia social statement. We will look at the intersections between
craft and criticism, audience and experimentation, history and self-expression. Readings will
move from early examples of hybridity to postmodern experimentation to creative examinations
into such contemporary issues as climate change, A.I., and the structural racism that inspired
Black Lives Matter. Genres include legal treaties, programming code, comics, cinema, opera,
jazz, and of course, poetry. Students will be asked to write three short essays, take turns leading
class discussion, submit one longer research-based project, and engage in various creative and
critical writing exercises throughout the semester. Planned authors include Layli Long Soldier,
William Blake, Franny Choi, JP Howard, Vanessa Anglica Villarreal, Douglas Kearney, Daveed
Diggs, and Langston Hughes.

Quincy JonesThis course covers the second half of William Shakespeare’s career, attending to the major dramatic genres in which he wrote. It will combine careful attention to the plays’ poetic richness with a focus on their theatrical inventiveness, using filmed productions of many of the plays to explore their staging possibilities. At the same time, we will use the plays as thematic springboards to explore the cultural forces – pertaining to, among others things, politics, class, religion, gender, and race – that shaped the moment in which Shakespeare lived and worked.

Alan StewartThis course is designed as an overview of major texts (in poetry and prose), contexts, and themes in British Romanticism. The movement of Romanticism was born in the ferment of revolution, and developed alongside so many of the familiar features of the modern world—features for which Romanticism provides a vantage point for insight and critique. As we read authors including William Blake, John Keats, Mary Shelley, and many others, we will situate our discussions around key issues including: the development of new ideas about individualism and community; industrialization and ecology (changes in nature and in the very conception of “nature”); and slavery and abolition.

In this class, you'll write two personal essays, about fifteen pages each. We'll spend each class discussing two student essays and one published essay. My goal in this class--besides building a community of people to talk about writing together--is for each student to figure out what drives them to write, what they're most driven to write about, and how their mind works. I like to find and bring out each student's strengths as a writer, storyteller, thinker.
I'm a comics artist (long-form) and cartoonist (short-form), and I encourage anyone with an interest in making comics or other kinds of visual narratives to do so. I can offer help with very nuts and bolts things like materials and computer programs, as well as help telling a clear story in a sometimes complicated medium.
I don't think there are clear, universal boundaries between non-fiction and fiction, personal essay and journalistic essay, fact and story (in a creative writing context, I mean!), long-form and short-form, written word and other modes of communication - and I like for students to start to figure out their own personal differentiations and definitions.
Homework for this class is mostly reading. There's also a quick weekly writing assignment, graded pass/fail, just to keep you writing regularly. In our workshops, we go over the essays in draft form. I don't grade the essays until they're officially turned in at the end of the semester.

William SharpeGeoffrey Chaucer, “the father of English literature,” was also the first known English reader of Dante – generally regarded as the greatest poet in a modern European language – and the question of how to respond to the legacy of his powerful predecessor left its mark on many of Chaucer’s works. Was “Chaucer,” the self-identified hero of The Canterbury Tales, based on “Dante,” the poet pilgrim who, in the Commedia, claims to have personally visited Hell, Purgatory and Paradise? And if so, as seems likely, what do we make of Chaucer’s rejection of Dante’s “beautiful style,” and his comparative emphasis on irony, incompleteness, and bodily humor? Reading these foundational authors side-by-side sheds unexpected light on each. Could it be that Chaucer was Dante’s canniest reader? In this
seminar we will read generous extracts from Chaucer in the original Middle English, as well as the Commedia of Dante, and additional short texts, in modern English translation.

Andrew LynnLove dominates, according to received opinion, the literature of the Middle Ages, a period that indeed saw the emergence of courtly romance and Troubadour poetry. But medieval love literature is not all brave knights pining for haughty ladies. Love, for medieval writers, could be sacred or transgressive, irrational or philosophical, transcendent or debasing – and often it was several of these things at once. On the other hand, in a time when everything claims to be about love, one may sometimes be tempted to wonder if nothing is, and the topic certainly provided a space for medieval writers to explore a number of related themes such as gender, class, cultural difference, nature, and truth. In this course we will consider a selection of these rich and paradoxical texts, as we read in a variety of
genres by authors across Europe including but not limited to: Abelard and Heloise, Ibn Hazm, Marie de France, Chretien de Troyes, Boccaccio, Petrarch, and Christine de Pisan.

Rachel EisendrathThe seventeenth century was a century of revolution, giving birth to modern ways of thinking, and calling into question many of the old ways. In the early years, many were affected by melancholy, some believing the world was approaching the endtimes. England experienced plagues, particularly in London, and other catastrophes. So we might find some affinity with our own current situation, facing new challenges, our world turned upside down, which is what many people felt during that time. Out of all of this turmoil, however, came great literature including lyric poems by John Donne and others exploring love and desire, doubt and faith, sex and God. Donne also wrote a series of Devotions grappling with mortality over a course of 23 days when he was suffering from typhus or relapsing fever and almost died. Others turned to find solace in the natural world and friendship (Amelia Lanyer, Katherine Philips, Henry Vaughan). Robert Burton wrote a book on melancholy, which he kept adding to. Francis Bacon thought a revolution in science could redeem the world. Thomas Browne, a physician as well as writer, tackled the problem of intolerance and religious conflict. Thomas Hobbes thought only a firm (authoritarian?) government could reestablish peace and security, while Gerard Winstanley (a “Leveller”) thought that owning land (and money) was the source of all war and misery. Transgressive women had their own ideas. The Quaker leader Margaret Fell defended women's right to preach. We will read selections from these and other writers, understanding them in their historical context and with a sense of their current resonance.The seventeenth century was a century of revolution, giving birth to modern ways of thinking, and calling into question many of the old ways.

Achsah GuibboryLove him or hate him—or both, as is more often and more fittingly the case—you must admit that Freud turned the world upside-down. Against the supposed supremacy of rational consciousness, he found the power of the unconscious. At the heart of civilized order, he uncovered ever more sophisticated mechanisms of repression. Where the world saw the march of progress, he saw the death drive. And he discovered all of this through a new invention, a science of narrative, called psychoanalysis. According to this science, we are the stories we tell. And this means that we, our lives, our joys and anxieties, our past and our future, are like any story: always open to interpretation. In this course, we turn this lens back upon psychoanalysis, opening its clinical history and fundamental concepts to critical, literary interpretation. Beginning with Freud but moving beyond him, we will read foundational psychoanalytic texts alongside plays, poetry, novels, short stories, and films that corroborate, complicate, and contest the Freudian framework. We will consider the intrinsically literary qualities of psychoanalysis and, inversely, we will ask what literature, literary criticism, and literary theory gain or lose in this critical relation to psychoanalysis.

Nathan GorelickPhilosophers have only interpreted the world, wrote Marx in the Theses on Feuerbach: the point is to change it. Perhaps this is the origin of theory. In this seminar we will examine theories that both explain the world and help us change it, to make it more peaceable, sustainable, equal, and just.
Our point of departure is therefore Marx and his understanding of equality rooted in economic justice. We will familiarize ourselves with concepts such as capital and class consciousness, reification, commodification, totality, and alienation, and explore how they have been used to rethink literary and mass cultural forms and their ongoing transformations in a changing world system. Other theorists may include J-J Rousseau, Sigmund Freud, Franz Fanon, Eric Williams, Georg Lukács, Mikhail Bakhtin, Theodor Adorno, Max Horkheimer, Walter Benjamin, C.L.R. James, Frantz Fanon, Amílcar Cabral, Edward Said, Antonio Gramsci, Raymond Williams, Stuart Hall, Louis Althusser, Guy Debord, Gayatri Spivak, Vivek Chibber, Achille Mbebe, Kohei Saito, Giovanni Arrighi, Pascale Casanova, Slavov Zizek, and Melinda Cooper. Seminar members are invited to bring examples from texts – poems, novels, art, film, media, and digital culture –that reveal, through their depictions of injustice, what justice might be.

Eugene Petracca"Yes, globalization can produce homogeneity, but globalization is also a threat to homogeneity." --Kwame Anthony Appiah, "The Case for Contamination," New York Times Magazine, 2006
Thinking through the arguments both in favor of and against globalization, particularly in the realm of cultural productions, in this course we will discuss the "global" novel. To that end, we will read essays from The Global Novel: Writing the World in the 21st Century about works such as Americanah, Snow, and The Reluctant Fundamentalist (along with the novels themselves) to investigate what is meant by "global" and what the criteria for including novels in this categorization are. We will also consider whether there is an erasure of cultural difference and nuance in reading novels using a globalizing perspective in order to render them more approachable for a (primarily) US audience.
In order to think through and challenge this category of the global, we will also read novels that can be roughly categorized as postcolonial. We will thus consider how struggles for independence and the desire to locate one’s identity either within freshly liberated nation-states or in the process of immigrating to former metropoles could give rise to cultural and psychological anxieties. We will also consider the manner in which late-stage capitalism could indeed push toward homogenized senses of self that manifest in a category such as the "global novel" and whether arguments could be made in favor of such homogenization. Ultimately, we will think about the politics of globalization and the desire to include in or exclude from the “global” certain locations, cultural products, or peoples.

In this class we will discuss the narrative of the "American" story, and how stories of immigrants and minority identities redefine and complicate it. The goal of the class is to investigate how writers frame a sense of identity in relation to the "American ideal". We will explore this theme through three creative non-fiction pieces each focusing on a different perspective of place, person, and personal experience. What are your stories, and what makes them "American"?

Maria HinojosaThis class will investigate the ways in which the nineteenth-century novel is shaped by the forces of horror, sensation, suspense and the supernatural. We will ask how the melodramatic imagination, the rhetoric of monstrosity, and the procedures of detection mark high narrative realism with the signs of cultural anxieties building up around nineteenth-century revolution, industrialization, capitalism, bigamy, Catholicism and immigration. Looking at representative samples of the Romantic neo-gothic novel, mid-century ghost stories, the highly popular and controversial sensation novels of the 1860’s along with their spectacular iterations on the Victorian stage, we will come away with a deeper and more nuanced understanding of the intersection between the novel and popular entertainment. Readings will probably include Austen’s Northanger Abbey, Brontë’s Villette, Braddon’s Lady Audley’s Secret, Collins’s The Woman in White, Dickens’s Bleak House, Stoker’s Dracula, plays by Boucicault, Hazelwood, Lewis, and Wood, and ghost stories by Edwards, Gaskell, Hood, and Mulock.

We will analyze how journalistic writing, documentaries, and personal narratives shape public policy and American attitudes about the "the immigrant experience." What are these narratives, how are they told, and what are their implications? How do writers disrupt these narratives?

Maria HinojosaAn interdisciplinary course focused on environmental humanities and based in the English department, “Changing Climate, Changing World” will examine the representation of nature across time and its implications for global warming and biodiversity from multiple perspectives, emphasizing issues of climate change and environmental justice. The course will provide a conceptual framework for reading and critiquing the representation of nature in the context of historical, economic, social, cultural, scientific and political change.
The course design asks students to address climate change in the context of the industrial revolution before discussing environmental issues in a pre-industrial and finally a post-industrial context. We will begin in media res by addressing issues of industrialization and colonialism in the mid-18th and 19th century before considering indigenous, medieval, and renaissance representations of nature. In the second half of the course, we return to examine contemporary issues from the early 20th century to the present.
The course will meet twice weekly in Spring 2025. One of these meetings will include a lecture with a guest faculty member from Barnard and Columbia, or occasionally with other experts, artists, and activists from New York and beyond, followed by questions from the audience on the lecture. The second meeting will emphasize student discussion of the lecture and associated readings, with the purpose of integrating each lecture into the total course framework. Since all the participating faculty are teaching full time, we will aim to schedule lectures in the late afternoon or evening to minimize conflicts. We would also like to open some of the lectures to the public, either virtually or in person, so that their impact could be felt beyond the class itself.

Linn MehtaThe spell cast by a captivating novel or elegant research can lead us to imagine that great writing is a product of the author's innate genius. In reality, the best writing is a product of certain not-very-intuitive practices. This course lifts the veil that obscures what happens in the minds of the best writers. We will examine models of writing development from research in composition studies, cognitive psychology, genre studies, linguistics, ESL studies, and educational psychology. Our classroom will operate as a laboratory for experimenting with the practices that the research identifies. Students will test out strategies that prepare them for advanced undergraduate research, graduate school writing, teaching, editing, and collaborative writing in professional settings. The course is one way to prepare for applying for a job as a peer writing fellow in Columbia’s Writing Center.

Aaron RitzenbergThrough a transcontinental network of poets and poetics from Iran and Russia to Germany and the United States, in this course we will: 1) learn about classical Persian poetry that was translated widely and contributed to the development of World Literature (the cornerstone of which was Johann Wolfgang Goethe’s weltliteratur) and to study different translations and adaptations of this poetry; 2) study world poetry that Iranian poets had translated into Persian and analyze how these translations may have affected modern Persian poetics; 3) read in comparison modern Persian poetry and African diasporic poetry, discuss the intersections of the power structures of gender, class, race and ethnicity, and analyze how these power structures manifested themselves in pre-revolutionary Iran (and ultimately, what can be learned from including this historical context in contemporary Caribbean and African American studies).
On a broader scale, this course aims to place Persian poetry and poetics within a world literature discourse, both in terms of its historical contributions to this discourse as well as the discourse’s contributions to Persian poetics. It is meant to encourage you to investigate the role that translation plays in world literary studies; at the same time, it acknowledges the limits of global markets of literature and their politics of translation. Weeks eight through thirteen of the course in which Iranian poetry is put into conversation with African diasporic poetry, therefore, demonstrate the possibilities that open up in world literary studies when scholars expand their focus beyond proven literary connections and underscore cultural provenance as a basis for comparison.

Atefeh Akbari ShahmirzadiThis seminar asks how poetry claims places. The poets come mostly from Britain or its former colonies. The poems range from the seventeenth century all the way to the present day, with the majority (around two-thirds of the schedule) drawn from the long eighteenth century. In that period, an age of increased urbanization inside Britain’s borders and increased mobility around its expanding empire, the main distinction that organized cultural conversations about place was the divide between the town and the country. But poems about the virtues of rural life often spoke from a distressed urban perspective, and poems about the dynamism of the city frequently described it from the viewpoint of an outsider or newcomer. What the eighteenth century can teach us about the poetry of place, then, is that it might secretly be poetry of movement, poetry about how one seemingly stable location (or type of location) might pick up and go somewhere else. Starting from this insight, we will wrestle with larger questions about how shareable the poetry of place can be. Does staying faithful to a single place—its grainy specificity, its deep history, its rich tradition—risk making a poem unintelligible elsewhere? To what extent does a place-based poem need to shed its local attachments and try to speak a more universal language? How can a poem communicate its rootedness with people who don’t have roots in the same spot? When is a poem an extension of place, and when is it an escape from it?
Instead of proceeding chronologically, our weekly seminar will largely be arranged by settings that various English, Scottish, Irish, Caribbean, Anglo-Indian, and American poets have evoked. For the first ten weeks of the term, we will move from one type of place to another: from country houses to city streets, perhaps, or battlefields to bridges, hills to dales, walking paths to railway stations, outer islands to outer space. For the final few weeks, we will shift our organization and sample several major poets of place—one or two from the eighteenth century, one or two from the following centuries. Your final project for the class will imaginatively map the poetry of one of the places that you claim or one of the places that claims you.

Erik GrayWhat are archives and why are they a common feature of postcolonial stories? What are the different forms of archives that we encounter in postcolonial narratives and what aesthetic effects do they have on these narratives? By looking at archives that are found in literary texts and literary texts that are found in archives, we will study the different ways that the term 'archive' can be understood: as documents deemed important for posterity, as ephemeral collections of ‘small things’ in surprising shapes and spaces, and as metaphor for the ways in which time and knowledge are organized and experienced. We will consider how archives act as sites where the afterlives of unjust racial pasts persist into the present and take forms both old and new. We will discuss the role of archives in literary pursuits of racial justice as sites that both enable discovery and necessitate loss. As a word that sits on the borders between life and afterlife, past and future, ‘fact’ and fantasy, colonial and postcolonial, 'archive' is a resonant keyword through which many urgent concerns in the study of race and Empire today can be examined. Through our work for this course, we will ask: How might we as literary scholars of the postcolonial respond creatively to the traces and absences of the archive? We will explore archival afterlives in postcolonial works from the 20th and 21st centuries across a range of media including novels, poetry, film. We will also develop some initial forays into hands-on archival research at Columbia's Rare Books and Manuscripts Library and seek out institutional as well as informal archives that lie beyond Morningside Heights. No prerequisites.

Anirbaan BanerjeeIn a gesture of solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement, and spurred on by a wave of anti-Asian violence ignited by the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic,
Asian American artists and activists recently revived the slogan “Yellow Peril Supports Black Power.” Behind this slogan lies a long history of solidarity and
collaboration between members of the Asian and African diasporas who saw their struggles against racial oppression, both on a domestic and global scale, as
deeply intertwined. This course explores the literary dimensions of this rich yet often overlooked history, whose greatest thinkers were often also writers
themselves. Through the study of poetry, novels, drama, and memoir, we will trace the development of “Afro-Asian” literary imaginaries from the early twentieth
century to the present. Far from adopting a uniform approach to the subject, the texts we read will vary in form and content, ranging from the romantic, to the
experimental, to the critical. Our reading throughout the course will be anchored in key historical moments in the history of Black and Asian solidarity and conflict,
from pre-war anti-colonial movements, to the Third World Liberation strikes of the 1960s, to the Los Angeles riots of 1992. Together, we will ask what the unique
role of literature has been within this history, and explore the possibilities that literature holds for imagining cross-racial solidarity in our contemporary moment.

Mieko Anders“Race and religion are conjoined twins. They are both products of modernity.”—Theodore Vial
In this course, we will turn the clock back to early modernity, exploring the entanglement of concepts of racial and religious difference in the texts and cultural products of early modern England. Beginning in sixteenth century England, we will explore how a distinctive English Protestant identity was fashioned in relation to various religious and racial others, most notably the Jew, the Ottoman “Turk”, and the Black African. We will then turn to the literatures of encounter, exploring how the categories of race and religion were articulated in travel narratives, ethnographic accounts, and political polemic. Finally, we will turn to the writings of Afro-descended and Indigenous Christians, exploring how religious self-fashioning was performed by these racialized subjects.
Conversations throughout the semester will be attentive to the specificities of the period, whilst also serving to recontextualise and unsettle contemporary categories of racial and religious difference. Seminar readings will primarily consist of primary sources from the period including poetry, prose and drama from England and, in the latter part of the semester, its colonies. These will be supplemented with a variety of textual and non-textual materials, including works of art, historical documents, period-specific scholarship, and contemporary theory.
Keywords: race, religion, empire, travel, colonialism, enslavement, conversion.

Eli CumingsIn this course, we'll consider American texts about the supernatural. We'll begin in the colonial period, when many New Englanders interpreted surprising events as divine or demonic interventions. We'll look at texts about Salem witchcraft and colonial revivals, comparing the way authors argue that these events are supernatural or natural, divine or diabolical. We'll then consider American writers who use the supernatural to explore the human mind, issues of class and gender, and questions of history and identity. Throughout the course, we’ll also consider the way that supernatural stories function as entertainment, and consider the implications of choosing to entertain ourselves and each other with fear and wonder.

Lisa GordisThis course explores how American women writers who suffered from depression, disability, bodily pain, or social marginalization, used the environment and its literary representations to redefine the categories of gender, ability, and personhood. Prior to their inclusion into the public sphere through the US Constitution’s 19th Amendment which in 1920 granted women the right to vote, American artists had to be particularly resourceful in devising apt strategies to counter the political and aesthetic demands that had historically dispossessed them of the voice, power, and body. This course focuses on the women writers who conceptualized their own surroundings (home, house, marriage, country, land, island and the natural world) as an agent that actively and decisively participates in the construction and dissolution of personal identity. In doing so, they attempted to annul the separation of the public (politics) and the private (home) as respective male and female spheres, and in this way they contributed, ahead of their own time, to the suffragist debates. Our task in this course will be to go beyond the traditional critical dismissal of these emancipatory strategies as eccentric or “merely aesthetic” and therefore inconsequential. Instead, we will take seriously Rowlandson’s frontier diet, Fuller’s peculiar cure for her migraines, Wheatley’s oblique references to the Middle Passage, Jewett’s islands, Ša’s time-travel, Thaxter’s oceans, Hurston’s hurricanes, and Sansay’s scathing portrayal of political revolutions. We will read these portrayals as aesthetic decisions that had—and continue to have—profound political consequences: by externalizing and depersonalizing what is commonly understood to be internal and intimate, the authors we read collapse the distinction between inside and outside, between the private and public—the distinction that traditionally excluded women from participation in the public life, in policy- and decision-making.

Vesna KuikenThis course explores postwar poets’ extensive experimentation with new media and hybrid genres. The visual arts and the sonic arts—as well as computer-generated writing—offered inspiration to poets who understood themselves to be working in a context broader than conventional lyric poetry. Poets to be discussed include John Cage, Frank O’Hara, Amiri Baraka, Larry Eigner, Jayne Cortez, Norman Pritchard, Bernadette Mayer, Susan Howe, Theresa Hak Kyung Cha, Tan Lin, Claudia Rankine, and Lilian-Yvonne Bertram. We will also discuss theoretical accounts of the “expanded field” of intermedia arts and cross-genre writing. No prior knowledge of postwar poetry or art is presumed.

Andrew DelbancoDepression has existed for all time. But our explanations of it has shifted, from sin, to an imbalance of the humours, and a poetic inspiration; from the eighteenth-century mechanistic understanding of the self, to the Freudian family romance that generates trauma, and to our current neuro-genetic understanding of the mind as a machine that can achieve happiness with pharmaceutical intervention. We will follow these permutations, even as we read novels, poems, plays, and view film (and art) for their diagnostic awareness of mental suffering. And we will also ask the question: what if depression comes not from within but without, the intelligent response of aware minds to a world that has become undone.

DAPHNE MIRIAM MERKINDeformed, grotesque, super/transhuman and otherwise extraordinary bodies have always been a central feature of comics. However, the past ten years have seen a surge of graphic narratives that deal directly with experiences of health and illness, and that are recognized as having significant literary value. This course will focus on graphic narratives about healthcare, illness, and disability with particular attention to questions of embodied identities such as gender, sexuality, race, and age. Primary texts will include the work of Alison Bechdel, Roz Chast, CeCe Bell, David Small, Allie Brosch, and Ellen Fourney. We will study the vocabulary, conventions, and formal properties of graphic literature, asking how images and text work together to create narrative. We will consider whether graphic narrative might be especially well suited to representations of bodily difference; how illness/disability can disrupt conventional ideas about gender and sexuality; how experiences of the body as a source of pain, stigmatization, and shame intersect with the sexualized body; and how illness and disability queer conventional sexual arrangements, identities, and attachments. While studying the construction of character, narrative, framing, color, and relationship between visual and print material on the page, students will also produce their own graphic narratives.

Edward MendelsonThis course will focus on literary fiction and film about science, scientists, and scientific culture. We’ll ask how and why writers have wanted to represent the sciences and how their work is inspired, in turn, by innovations in scientific knowledge of their time. This is not a class on genre fiction. Unlike a science fiction class, we will cover narratives in a variety of genres—some highly speculative, and some in a more realist vein—thinking about how literary form is related to content. We start with Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, often considered the first work of science fiction, before moving to works from across the twentieth and twenty-first centuries including H.G. Welles’s The Island of Dr. Moreau, George Schulyer’s Black No More, Sinclair Lewis’s Arrowsmith, Carl Sagan’s Contact, Richard Powers’s Overstory, and the short stories of Ted Chiang. We will also watch such films as James Whale’s Frankenstein, Ridley Scott’s Blade Runner, Andrew Niccol’s Gattaca, and Yorgos Lanthemos’s Poor Things.
In addition to asking how science and scientists are represented in these narratives, we’ll also discuss the cultural impact of such scientific innovations as the discovery of electricity, cell theory, eugenics and racial science, vaccines and immunology, space travel, new reproductive technologies, gene editing and more. A STEM background is not required, but students will be expected to have curiosity and motivation to learn about science, as well as its narrative representation.

Rachel AdamsTrees shadow the human in faceless fashion. They mark of a form of deep-time AN record and respond to ecological devastation and abundance. Symbolic of the strange proximity of the divine in numerous different religious and literary traditions, trees figure as alter-egos or doubles for human lives and after-lives (in figures like the trees of life and salvation, trees of wisdom and knowledge, genealogical trees). As prostheses of thought and knowledge, they become synonymous with structure and form, supports for linguistic and other genres of mapping, and markers of organization and reading. As key sources of energy, trees –as we know them today -- are direct correlates with the rise of the Anthropocene. Trees are thus both shadows and shade: that is, they are coerced doubles of the human and as entry ways to an other-world that figure at the limits of our ways of defining thought and language.
By foregrounding how deeply embedded trees are in world-wide forms of self-definition and cultural expression, this course proposes a deeper understanding of the way in which the environment is a limit-figure in the humanities’ relation to its “natural” others. This course assumes that the “real” and the “literary” are not opposed to one another, but are intimately co-substantial. To think “climate” or “environment” is not merely a matter of the sciences, rather, it is through looking at how the humanities situates “the tree” as a means of self-definition that we can have a more thorough understanding of our current ecological, political, and social climate.
Foregrounding an interdisciplinary approach to literary studies, this course includes material from eco-criticism, philosophy, religion, art history, indigenous and cultural and post-colonial studies. It will begin by coupling medieval literary texts with theoretical works, but will expand (and contract) to other time periods and geographic locales.

Patricia DaileyThis course will consider numerous kinds of climate fictions, including, but not limited to, the recent literary category of prose fiction known as “cli-fi,” or climate fiction. In this course, “climate fictions” also refers to a range of ideas, assumptions, cultural narratives, and hypotheses about the Earth’s climate: in other words, frameworks constructed by humans[1] for thinking about (or not thinking about) the climatic conditions of our planetary home. These fictions might include such debatable propositions as “humans can’t change the climate,” “there’s nothing we can do about climate change,” “climate change is something that will happen in the future,” “climate change is something that will happen far away,” or “climate change is only about the weather.” “Climate fictions” also include scenarios and projections of a near-future, climate-changed world, whether those offered by scientists, by writers, or by ordinary people as they contemplate the possible trajectories of their lives and the lives of their descendants.
Thinking among these versions of “climate fictions,” we’ll consider the role of literature and the literary imagination in fashioning, interpreting, and inhabiting them. What work does the imagination do in the world, in grappling both with the worlds that humans have made, and with the boundary parameters of the Earth system that have shaped life on this planet as we have known it? How do cultural and narrative assumptions shape the work of scientists and policy-makers? How can prose fiction help readers engage with the challenges of knowledge, emotion, anticipation, judgement, and action that a warming world will require? How can climate fictions of all sorts help readers try on modes of living and other futures that we do or don’t want—or lull them into thinking that such anticipation is unnecessary or futile?
Thinking together about these questions, we will use the reading list and the seminar meetings to hone our skills of noticing, extrapolating, speculating, proposing, listening, disagreeing, concurring, and cooperating in the difficult work of confronting fear and doubt and of finding a path toward truth and perhaps even hope. You will be asked to read carefully and curiously, to test your ideas in regular informal writing and weekly seminar discussion, and to develop more polished thoughts (or dreams!) in a response paper and a final project.
[1] The English word fiction derives from the Latin verb fingĕre: to fashion or form.

We will be reading (smaller) portions of the vast quantity of secondary texts as we negotiate and debate issues raised by our readings and contemporary scholarship. As we work through the language of the text, comparing translations with our own, we will also be tracking concepts.

This course will examine the noir tradition in American film between 1941 and 1959. We begin with noir's origins in two turn-of-the-century literary works about Empire, Inc and the divided self of the modern era, Conrad's "Heart of Darkness" and Stevenson's " Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde". We will consider the international roots of Hollywood noir, many of whose directors were European refugees from Hitler, and its depictions of the femme fatale, l'homme fatale, and the world métropole, particularly NYC and LA. Readings will include Marxist, postcolonial, and gender theory, and film history. Films will include "The Killers", "Double Indemnity", "The Big Heat", "The Lodger", "Gilda", "Sunset Blvd", "Sweet Smell of Success", and "Vertigo".

Ann DouglasEnrollment limited to Barnard senior English majors with a concentration in creative writing.
This creative writing workshop represents an opportunity for creative writing concentrators to focus on one large project that will serve as a capstone senior project. As in a typical writing workshop, much of the focus will be on sharing and critiquing student work. Unlike other workshops, in this class students will focus on building out a longer project—such as a more ambitious full-length story for fiction and creative nonfiction writers and a chapbook for poets. This means students will discuss work by writers who may not share their own genre. We will focus on generating new work, developing your writing process, and creating new possibilities and momentum for your piece, as well as trying to create a sense of community among the concentrators. We will also conduct in-class writing exercises in response to short reading assignments and class lectures. Students should be aware of two important notes: (1) This class is limited to senior English majors who have already been approved to be creative writing concentrators; and (2) this course fulfills the requirement for concentrators to finish a senior project, but not the academic senior seminar requirement. This class is about your own writing and that of your classmates. This class will be what you make of it!

Atefeh Akbari ShahmirzadiIn this seminar we will read virtually everything by Ralph Ellison—leaving aside for now the posthumous “novel” published as Three Days Before the Shooting. We will concentrate on this writer’s highly influential insights and perspectives as an essayist, short story writer, and novelist. We also will investigate his recently discovered work as a photographer, and his uses of “photographic imagery” in his writing. Above all we will delve deeply into his aesthetic values as well as his political philosophy or--to use a keystone Ellisonian word--his stances. As we read Ellison’s fiction and nonfiction (and look at his photographs), let us be watchful for Ellison’s positions on current cultural/critical questions: parody and pastiche; sound technologies and art (musical and literary); “planned dislocations of the senses”; the importance of place—region, city or country, nation; internationality; complex definitions of individuality and community; race; vernacular art and culture; and the role of the politically engaged artist. How to track a line from Ellison’s early Marxism to his later more centrist political positions? What do today’s readers make of his strong American nationalism? How have political conservatives made use of Ellison? Beyond “stances,” what are the key terms for unpacking the world according to Ellison?

Patricia DaileyThis seminar examines how 20th and 21st century writers have staged in their fiction, nonfiction, and multi-genre works ideas about why, how, and for whom they write. What do writers have to say in their essays and public talks about the strategies they use to sit down to their writing, when everything else in the world seems to be requiring their attention elsewhere? How is the figure of the writer and their often-fraught relationship with their work depicted in fictional accounts and in the complex retrospection of memoir and essays? In what ways do writers tether their goals for their work to the needs and experiences of others in communities of which they are a part or that they wish to reach? The course begins with essays and talks that answer the question, “Why I Write” by Virginia Woolf, George Orwell, James Baldwin, Joan Didion, bell hooks, Stephen King as well as philosophical explorations through Helene Cixcous’s Three Steps on the Ladder of Writing. These ideas about writers’ motivations will provide launching points for how each of us can begin to theorize our own motives as writers. We will use these ideas as a frame for reading novels that center the figure of the writer including Yōko Ogawa’s The Memory Police, Macedonio Fernández’s The Museum of Eterna’s Novel (The First Good Novel), Jenny Offill’s The Department of Speculation, and Colm Tóibín’s The Master. Through the work of essayists and memoirists, Samulet Delaney, Leslie Jamison, and Maggie Nelson, we will track how writers wrestle with the political, aesthetic, and affective dimensions of their identity as writers. Our final weeks will invite us to explore writerly advice and strategies for getting the work done. We will listen to podcasts featuring historians, such as Drafting the Past, explore revision strategies in John McPhee’s Draft 4, consider our writerly routines with excerpts from Maria Popova’s literary blog, The Marginalian and distill ideas about the work of research and writing from talks and essays by writers who have influenced each of us at Columbia and beyond. Students will produce their own autotheory of writing to accompany a piece in any genre that they will be drafting over the course of the semester.

Julie CrawfordThe course will examine literary experiments in prose and poetics by twentieth century and contemporary writers. These explorations in narrative, documentary poetics, visual graphics, textual assemblage, archival fabulation, and autotheory are critical to writing the experiences of the undocumented, the colonized, the blackened, the subaltern, the queer, the interstitial, and the disposable and to unlearning our ways of thinking and writing. Topics range from documenting the undocumented to histories of colonial war and bombing, from autofiction to fourth person narration.
This is a combination seminar-workshop course invites its participants to study and to produce works of radical composition. How do critical questions shape and engender new modalities of writing? How have writers radically challenged notions of genre, disciplinary frames, representational possibilities, and reading practices? What techniques have they deployed or disregarded and what other mediums have they drawn from to produce these works? How have these works produced radical new forms of knowledge, documentation, or the book-as-object?

Saidiya HartmanDeborah ParedezPrerequisites: the instructors permission. (Seminar). This course aims to contribute to your professional development while preparing you to teach University Writing, Columbia’s required first-year writing course. By the end of this course, you should have a basic grasp of the goals and structure of University Writing, the principles that inform its design, and the kinds of materials used in the course. While the course has an immediate goal—to prepare you for your fall teaching assignment—it aims simultaneously to enrich your teaching in the broadest sense. Your fall University Writing syllabus, as well as your lesson plans and homework assignments for the first eight classes, are due for review on August 1, 2016. This course will give you opportunity to prepare these materials throughout this semester with the support of the UWP directors, senior instructors, and advising lecturers. This course is the first of your ongoing professional development obligations as a UW instructor. You must successfully complete G6913 to teach in the UWP. Every subsequent semester, you will be required to attend a staff orientation, attend at least one workshop, and meet with your mentor and advising UWP director. All instructors new to the UWP must take this 1-credit, ungraded course during the fall of their first year of teaching. The course is intended to guide instructors through their first semester and emphasizes the practical application of the knowledge and expertise developed in G6913. Successful completion of the course is required for continuation as a UWP instructor.
