Second Eight Weeks Course: "Comics as Memoir"
Check out this Second Eight Weeks Course!
Comics as Memoir (2 cr)
MW 4:00-5:15 p.m.
Collins Living-Learning Center
Course description:
How are comics so popular as pleasure reading, and yet so sought after by scholars as fodder for their methodologies? This class will take as its purview comics, webcomics and graphic novels from the last decade or so, and investigate the themes and meanings of each. We will look at memoirs, discussing issues of time, space, memory, liminal zones, and culture through the intersection of image and text. We will also use scholarly articles, showing the rich field of scholarship that has sprung from comics. For assignments, students will write weekly responses to the readings, and undertake an independent project with a presentation. We will also take several field trips, including Boxcar Books, Microcosm Publishing, and have several guest lectures by local scholars and artists to enrich the learning experience.
Questions may be directed to:
