Gender & Sexuality Studies This course will examine women
as represented in modern Italian literature from Giovanni Verga (1870s) to
Franca Rame (1970s). The dramatic changes in social, political, and economic
roles of Italian women in this period will provide the context for class
discussion. We will focus on form and genre; the author’s use of language and
rhetoric; the political, philosophical, and theological questions posed by the
text; women under fascism; representations of women as wives and mothers.
Special attention will be on freedom and dignity; love, abortion, and divorce;
the struggle for sexual self-determination; etc. Readings include:
SibillaAleramo, Anna Banti, Alberto Moravia, DaciaMaraini. The course will
develop students’ critical reading skills, understanding of modern and
contemporary Italian culture, and knowledge of issues of gender. Prerequisites: two years of Italian or
