Our class will use disability studies theory to analyze how artists with disabilities critique ableism and complicate conventional narratives of disability. Stereotypical depictions of the disabled figure in literature, art, and popular culture reinforce, sometimes inadvertently, discrimination towards people with physical, intellectual, and psychiatric disabilities. The disabled subject is often represented as the object of pity, scorn, or as heroic inspiration for ableist culture. Works by artists with disabilities tend to challenge these depictions in content and form in unconventional and radical ways. We will engage with a variety of texts to discuss how artists draw attention to inclusivity, access, and social justice.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\t<\/div>\n\t<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n\t\t( function( $ ) {\n\t\t\tlet panel = document.getElementById('block_acf-block-6841ba937f688-acc-content-panel');\n\n\t\t\t\/*\n\t\t\t * Need to set a value for maxHeight to initialize the accordion properly.\n\t\t\t * If we don't include this conditional, the accordion doesn't nicely transition to open\/close on the first click.\n\t\t\t *\/\n\t\t\tif ( 1 == 0 ) {\n\t\t\t\tpanel.style.maxHeight = 0 == 1 ?

Our goals are to learn about the messages fairy tales convey about self and society, as well as understand how narrative structure and story appeal apply to both scholarly writing and real life.

We will study modern lives through the prism of memoirs written by writers with unusual and fascinating backgrounds and stories. We begin with essays offering a history of memoir before reading essays describing the nature of memoir and the many issues that often arise\u2014such as memory recall, memory fallibility, unintended misrepresentation and fabrication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We read a variety of essay-length memoirs as well as excerpts from book-length memoirs before turning to Tobias Wolff&#8217;s This Boy&#8217;s Life and Tara Westover&#8217;s Educated. These writers ask interesting questions: What is truth in memoir? How do memoirs differ from fiction? Are memoirists fiction writers in disguise? At what point does embellishment of an event transform into fabrication?

By reading, viewing, or listening to feminist thinkers from across the globe, both historical and contemporary, students will reflect on the systemic nature of patriarchal oppression that, despite feminist progress on many fronts, continues to marginalize and dehumanize women even today. This course will ask: What are the limitations of white, Western liberal feminism for supporting women&#8217;s rights across lines of national origin, race, ethnicity, religious identity, disability status, socioeconomic standing or caste, sexual orientation, and gender identity? What can transnational, intersectional feminism teach us about the deep connections between patriarchal structures, capitalism, and imperialism, as well as how feminism can address the injustices inherent within all three?

What role can it play today?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>How do women&#8217;s rights relate to human rights more broadly?

Stories give structure and meaning to our lives.&nbsp; Stories shape our perceptions of food and what food means to us.&nbsp; We swim through a sea of stories about which foods are good to eat, and which foods are bad to eat; what foods are healthy, and what foods are unhealthy; stories about where food comes from, how it is prepared, and by whom; as well as stories about the nature of human societies and our relationships with other species and the environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this course we will begin an exploration of these stories, their deeper meanings, and the&nbsp; connections between them across different places, different times, and different social locations.&nbsp; We will explore a wide variety of \u201ctexts\u201d including children\u2019s stories and nursery rhymes, short stories, novels, films, recipes and cookbooks, investigative journalism, TikTok and other videos, as well as academic articles and books.&nbsp; This will include exploring various elements of different \u201cfood cultures\u201d from around the world and from different periods of time.&nbsp; Later, we will focus more specifically on stories about good and bad food, including the scientific stories of nutrition and food science.&nbsp; This will lead us to yet other stories about food politics and how decisions about food are made and by whom, which leads to yet more stories about food companies and their roles in the food system.&nbsp; Throughout the course you will have many opportunities to critically engage with these materials, issues, and ideas.&nbsp; We will do some hands-on, experiential learning at Butler\u2019s campus farm, you will have an opportunity to do some creative work writing a children\u2019s story, nursery rhyme, or poem, as well as other individual and group projects and assignments.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\t<\/div>\n\t<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n\t\t( function( $ ) {\n\t\t\tlet panel = document.getElementById('block_acf-block-6840867332439-acc-content-panel');\n\n\t\t\t\/*\n\t\t\t * Need to set a value for maxHeight to initialize the accordion properly.\n\t\t\t * If we don't include this conditional, the accordion doesn't nicely transition to open\/close on the first click.\n\t\t\t *\/\n\t\t\tif ( 1 == 0 ) {\n\t\t\t\tpanel.style.maxHeight = 0 == 1 ?

We will examine written and multimodal texts of various genres, encompassing both creative nonfiction and fiction writing, to understand how self-expression manifests itself in these genres and how these genres illuminate insights about the interplay of self and society. Through creative remixing of multimodal elements and multiple genres(e.g, poetry, memoir, podcast, infographic, digital storytelling), we seek to understand how our personal identities and experiences are intricately and inextricably linked to the larger cultural, political, economic, historical, and social structures within which we live. This course will help students develop critical thinking, close reading, persuasive writing, academic research, and digital literacy skills while tapping into their creativity.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\t<\/div>\n\t<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n\t\t( function( $ ) {\n\t\t\tlet panel = document.getElementById('block_acf-block-684086be90b8c-acc-content-panel');\n\n\t\t\t\/*\n\t\t\t * Need to set a value for maxHeight to initialize the accordion properly.\n\t\t\t * If we don't include this conditional, the accordion doesn't nicely transition to open\/close on the first click.\n\t\t\t *\/\n\t\t\tif ( 1 == 0 ) {\n\t\t\t\tpanel.style.maxHeight = 0 == 1 ?

This FYS invites you to \u201cunpack\u201d numerous layers of meaning embedded within Collins\u2019 original dystopian series (fall semester) and her recent prequels (spring semester). Students with any level of (in)experience are welcome, though some level of passion for exploring this world is a must. We will first examine this allegorical saga as a cultural and literary phenomenon before moving into connections with our own world. We will take our own academic tour of sorts, sampling a variety of perspectives including psychology, history, philosophy, English, gender studies, political science, communication, music history (the Covey!), and health science, among others. You will have the opportunity to explore any of these disciplinary connections within your own creative projects.

Our class will use disability studies theory to analyze how artists with disabilities critique ableism and complicate conventional narratives of disability. Stereotypical depictions of the disabled figure in literature, art, and popular culture reinforce, sometimes inadvertently, discrimination towards people with physical, intellectual, and psychiatric disabilities. The disabled subject is often represented as the object of pity, scorn, or as heroic inspiration for ableist culture. Works by artists with disabilities tend to challenge these depictions in content and form in unconventional and radical ways. We will engage with a variety of texts to discuss how artists draw attention to inclusivity, access, and social justice.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\t<\/div>\n\t<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\n\t\t( function( $ ) {\n\t\t\tlet panel = document.getElementById('block_acf-block-6841ba937f688-acc-content-panel');\n\n\t\t\t\/*\n\t\t\t * Need to set a value for maxHeight to initialize the accordion properly.\n\t\t\t * If we don't include this conditional, the accordion doesn't nicely transition to open\/close on the first click.\n\t\t\t *\/\n\t\t\tif ( 1 == 0 ) {\n\t\t\t\tpanel.style.maxHeight = 0 == 1 ?
