Description
Section information text: Hybrid Forms, Hybrid IdentitiesThe root of the word "genre" is the Latin "genus," meaning "birth, family, nation" and "type or class of noun." This course explores texts that are hard to classify within a specific genre. Part lyric, part love letter, part history lesson, part taxonomy monograph, part hospital form, part exhibit, the works we will discuss not only trouble genre conventions but also playfully negotiate and complicate social categories: race, gender, and sexuality. Attentive to hybridity, we will pay particular heed to moments when boundaries are blurred, broken, or crossed. Students will submit their own hybrid writing for workshop and produce a portfolio of experimental work.
