Transferable: CSU; UC General Education: Local GE L3; Cal-GETC Area 3B This course is designed for any person who is interested in examining the roles women have occupied in literature, both as writers and as protagonists and characters. Emphasis will be placed on literature that develops protagonists and explores literary themes that focus on women's experiences in childhood, adolescence, marriage, childbirth and child rearing, death, love, dependence, independence, and their own creativity. Female authors and protagonists, and possibly male authors featuring female protagonists, will be representative of a wide range of cultural and ethnic groups from around the world. Over the course of the semester, students will examine issues of ethnicity, ethnocentrism, racism, ageism, classism, gender inequity, and religious differences that are raised in the literature under discussion. The literature will include a variety of genres, such as short stories, novels, plays, and poetry.
