The primarily 19th and early 20th century readings will be weighted towards those sexualities that have been historically marginalized including what we now term gay/lesbian/and bisexual. These texts will span the genres of poetry, drama, fiction and non-fiction, and include works by Chaucer, Shakespeare, William Bradford, Christina Rossetti, Tennyson, Melville, Oscar Wilde, EM. Forster, D.H. Lawrence, Virginia Woolf Radclyffe Hall, and Tennessee Williams. Historical contextualization will be offered by the writings of Krafft-Ebing, Havelock Ellis, and Freud.
Prerequisite(s): An open mind and successful completion of ENG-101 (ENG-102 recommended) or permission of instructor. ( minimum grade D-).
