| Additional Course Info | Class Number: 2862 The queer road-trip film has been gaining popularity as an outlet for exploring non-normative sexuality further marginalized on the road. We will examine the phenomenon of the queer road-trip narrative, approaching it from an unlikely starting point: the Ancient Mediterranean novels Satyrica and Leucippe and Clitophon. Both of these ancient novels dramatize road trips and travel narratives involving different combinations of queer characters; we'll pair them with a curated selection of contemporary queer road-trip films.; Crosslisted: GSST,VIST.; Enrollment Limit: 25.00 Humanities, A: Meaning, Interpretation (Texts) (; Hav: HU, A) |
