Global Science Fiction
|
3 s.h.
|
Registration Information:
Taught in English.
CONTENT WARNING: This course will be focused on SF works that challenge definitions of what makes us human. As such, we will often explore (with seriousness and intellectual rigor) works that are deliberately difficult: works that are politically challenging, ethically obscene, sexually explicit, and ones that explore aesthetics of “body horror” or the grotesque. The course level is introductory, but the material can be (in ways that are important or interesting) shocking. If you know in advance that this material will make it hard for you to learn or engage, it might be better for you to pick a different course.
