WMST 4980 Feminist Theory
What is feminist theory and what role does it
play in Women's Studies as a discipline? This Women's Studies
capstone course approaches feminism as a multiplicity of perspectives
and approaches to the understanding of women's position in culture.
Readings then will be as diverse as feminism itself and should
give you a broad and deep understanding of the diversity of feminist
thought and the historical and critical role feminist thought
has played in a variety of disciplinary approaches to the study
of women and culture. Readings will focus on intersections between
race, class, sexual orientation, and gender in feminist thought
and will include an investigation of paradigms such as the technology
of gender, gender as performance, domestic ideology, gendered
discourses in commodity culture (women and shopping), the environment
as a feminist issue (ecofeminism), and the racing of feminism
in English and American feminist theory. After a semester of
reading a variety of feminist theories by authors such as Judith
Butler (Gender Trouble) and Val Plumwood (Feminism and the Mastery
of Nature), you should understand how such issues as essentialism,
globalization, exclusivism, and classism have piqued feminist
debates. In class you will become comfortable applying feminist
paradigms to culture, allowing us to explore representations
of current or historical events. Several short response papers
to theoretical readings and one longer final project and presentation
will be required, as well as a midterm and final exam.
