2019-2020 Bracketed Courses Bracketed Courses 2019-2020 The courses were not offered during the 2019-2020 academic year, but were displayed as expected to be offered. African and African American Studies AAAS S-171 Study/So Africa: Perspectives CourseID: 214430 Faculty: Next Term Offered: AAAS S-188 Study/So Africa: Colonialism CourseID: 214431 Faculty: Next Term Offered: AAAS 130Y Mobility, Power and Politics CourseID: 000130 Faculty: Next Term Offered: This course incorporates insights from the new mobilities paradigm in studying the linkages between movement, power and politics in the contemporary era. The course will discuss how issues of mobility are central to many lives and many organizations, and how movement intersects with the spatialization and materialization of power, difference and inequality within societies. Students will come to an understanding of how mobility, and control over mobility, both reflects and reinforces power; why mobile subjects are increasingly a risk and at risk; and the impact of the regulation and governance of mobility on conflict, security and development. Students will also benefit from the new light that this course sheds on how issues of mobility and immobility intersect with security and development in at least five core areas: (1) questions of power and government (2) spaces of regulation and intervention (3) the quandary of freedom and control in a globalized world; (4) infrastructures that enable and constrain movement; and (5) issues of justice and ethics. Confirming the analytical appeal of the mobilities paradigm, this course will serve as a melting pot for a variety of disciplines, including sociology, anthropology, geography, gender studies, social work and social policy, disability and health studies, conflict analysis and resolution, urban studies, political science and international relations. Topics will include mobility and terrorism after 9/11; mobility and mobilization of the urban poor; youth, mobility and being 'stuck'; social mobility; roads, corruption and policing; mobility and il/legality; gender and mobility; and mobility as fieldwork. AAAS 196Y African Trauma Literature and the Politics of Memory CourseID: 214584 Faculty: Next Term Offered: In this course, we will examine literary representations of trauma in African postcolonial and contemporary literature and elucidate the politics of memory in Africa from the theoretical and psychoanalytic standpoint of Pumla Gobodo-Madikizela, Frantz Fanon, Kali Tal, Ifi Amadiume, Shoshana Felman, Cathy Caruth, Dori Laub, Judith Butler, Achille Mbembe, and others. We will focus on the various aspects of trauma theory as related to contemporary trauma narrative including memory and forgiveness, retrospective narrative, testimony and bearing witness, PTSD, mourning, war and violence, transgenerational trauma as well as healing and working through trauma. In order to understand how trauma impacts African communities and individuals in their daily life and their political, social and economic struggles, we will be analyzing "structural disorder" and "historical event" (Petar Ramadanovic) narratives, including fiction by Aminata Forna, Boubacar Boris Diop, Tayeb Salih, Yaa Gyasi, Ben Okri, Chris Abani, Jennifer Makumbi, with a special focus on the various strategies used by the individuals and communities – as represented in African literature – to cope with their traumatic experiences. AAAS 197Y Critiquing Black Muslim Reason CourseID: 213299 Faculty: Next Term Offered: This seminar asks: What does it mean to be Black in the United States? What does it mean to be a Muslim in the United States? What happens when these two identities compound or collide with one another? Well, what about Black Muslim Womanhood, for example? There are scholars who have discussed the "triple constraints" that Black Muslim Women, for example, face as they navigate the American public sphere. As well, while we directly confront questions of citizenship and belonging and without relying too heavily on critical race theory, we will take some time to think about how these sites of identity (and their reception) specifically impact Black Muslims in the United States. The primary purpose of this course—seminar—is to try to disentangle these sites of identity while understanding that for the people who are Black, Muslim, Female, and/or Migrant, there is no way to properly understand how people are subjected to various forms of marginalization, or resist structural racism or sexism, combat Islamophobia, or articulate what it means to either have or gain citizenship, or build communities where their whole selves are affirmed, by thinking that these identities are ever separable. The secondary aim of this course on Black Muslims is to think more deeply about how such a term has historically been applied to African-American Muslims (that is, American-born Muslims of African descent). Yet, our task is take up Edward Curtis' assertion that the popular use of the term 'Black Muslim' has not traditionally included Senegalese, Gambian, Somali, Sudanese, Trinidadian, or otherwise dark-skinned Muslims whose point of origin is beyond the United States. Nonetheless, Senegalese or Somali-American Muslims must contend with the othering effects of racism and Islamophobia—they are similarly impacted by police violence and structural discrimination. However, in some cases, they must also combat racially and religiously- motivated legislation that results in exclusion masked as immigration reform (e.g. Muslim Ban). AAAS 217X Themes in the History of African American Political Thought: Seminar CourseID: 216013 Faculty: Next Term Offered: This seminar will closely examine influential figures and texts in the history of African- American political thought from slavery to the contemporary era. We will critically evaluate, assess, and critique a range of African American authors and their interlocutors across genres (e.g., philosophy, literature, music, etc.) to better understand and build upon the development of key traditions, themes, and concepts. This year's theme will be the idea of "crime" in black politics and political thought, with special eye toward illuminating contemporary debates around hyperincarceration, public safety, and the political ethics of social movements. Open to graduates and undergraduates. AAAS 219A Race and Ethnicity in Latin America CourseID: 213432 Faculty: Next Term Offered: AAAS 299 Introduction to Graduate School: Skills and Practices for Scholarly Success CourseID: 212836 Faculty: Next Term Offered: The course trains graduate students in the humanities and social sciences in foundational skills that lead to scholarly success. Students learn to read journal articles swiftly and with high comprehension and retention, to write clear and persuasive prose, to teach effectively, and to identify and apply for grants. The course also leads students through a process by which they orient themselves to the major journals, scholarly organizations, and conferences in their respective disciplines. Students in the course produce a series of documents of direct, practical value: a polished academic C.V., a Harvard Scholar website, and a syllabus, among others. The purpose of this course is to reveal the "hidden curriculum" of grad school and to develop the skills and habits of mind that will benefit students in their doctoral programs and throughout their diverse careers. AFRAMER 100 Race and Modernity: W. E. B. Du Bois, James Baldwin and Lorraine Hansberry CourseID: 205689 Faculty: Next Term Offered: This course will examine the classic texts of the towering intellectual figures who exemplify profound interpretations of race and modernity. Works include Du Bois's The Souls of Black Folk, Dusk of Dawn, Baldwin's Notes of a Native Son, No Name in the Street and Hansberry's Raisin in the Sun and To Be Young, Gifted and Black. AFRAMER 123Z American Democracy CourseID: 111438 Faculty: Next Term Offered: Democracy, inequality, and nationalism in America. The white working class and American politics. Class and race. Identities and interests. Conditions for socially inclusive economic growth. Alternative directions of institutional change, viewed in light of American history. Democratizing the market and deepening democracy. Self-reliance and solidarity. Readings from classic and contemporary works on the United States. Extended take- home examination. AFRAMER 125X Urban Inequality after Civil Rights CourseID: 156259 Faculty: Next Term Offered: 2019 Spring Why is the United States more segregated today than ever before? By examining the impact of social, political, and economic transformations in the decades after the civil rights movement, this course addresses historical developments that functioned to increase segregation and income stratification in African American communities in the late twentieth century and into the twenty-first. Offered jointly with the Graduate School of Design as SES 5507. AFRAMER 130X Richard Wright: Literature, Philosophy, and Politics CourseID: 156260 Faculty: Next Term Offered: This course examines the major fiction and nonfiction works of Richard Wright from a literary, philosophical, and political perspective. We will take an interdisciplinary approach to this wide-ranging and canonical American author, contextualizing him within the broader tradition of black letters.

Lovecraft in an attempt to understand his work by viewing it through the filter of his life. The approach is thus historical-biographical in nature, based in historical context and drawing on the entirety of Lovecraft’s non-fiction production in addition to his weird fiction, with the aim being to suggest some correctives to certain prevailing critical views on Lovecraft. These views include the “cosmic school” led by Joshi, the “racist school” inaugurated by Houellebecq, and the “pulp school” that tends to be dismissive of Lovecraft’s work on stylistic grounds, these being the most prevalent depictions of Lovecraft currently.

  • A Minimalist Analysis of Uyghur Genitives Stephen Politzer-Ahles
    A Minimalist analysis of Uyghur genitives Stephen Politzer-Ahles University of Kansas Abstract This paper investigates the syntactic structure of so-called genitive-possessive DPs in Uyghur, a Turkic language. Uyghur genitive-possessives bear suffixes on both the “possessing” entity (comparable to the Saxon genitive 's in English) and the “possessed” one. The suffix on the “possessor”, -ning, is considered a genitive case marker; the suffix on the “possessed” has multiple allomorphs and is considered an agreement marker that agrees in person and number with the “possessor”. Based on the multiplicity of semantic roles that the “possessing” object may bear, and the observation that it may be dropped from the DP, an analogy is made between genitive-possessive DPs and finite TPs. It is proposed that “possessors” behave in a manner parallel to that of subjects of TPs: they are introduced by a quasi-functional head n or within a gerund, and raise to [Spec,DP] to receive genitive case from D. The agreement suffix, on the other hand, is treated as the phonological realization of an Agr head that is introduced with unvalued phi-features, features which are valued when the “possessing” entity passes through the specifier of AgrP. Adopting this structure can explain data on the realization of definiteness in genitive and non-genitive DPs, and the distribution of adverbials within gerunds. Introduction One of the key components to a theory of noun phrase structure is an explanation of how possessive marking is carried out within the DP. For example, a theory of English DPs owes an explanation of where the 's comes from in phrases like “John’s book”, and how case-checking is done in such a phrase.

In the realm of mass-market romance novels, a boom- ing industry, the sheikh-hero of any standard desert romance is but one of the many possible alpha-male heroes, and while he is certainly not the most popular alpha-male hero in the contemporary market, he maintains a niche and even has a couple of blogs and an informative Web site devoted especially to him.3 Given popular perceptions of the Middle East as a threatening and oppressive place for women, it is perhaps not surprising that the heroine in a popular desert romance, Burning Love, characterizes her sheikh thusly: “Sharif was an Arab. To him every woman was a slave, including her.

  • Turkish Literature from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia Turkish Literature
    Turkish literature From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Turkish literature By category Epic tradition Orhon Dede Korkut Köroğlu Folk tradition Folk literature Folklore Ottoman era Poetry Prose Republican era Poetry Prose V T E A page from the Dîvân-ı Fuzûlî, the collected poems of the 16th-century Azerbaijanipoet Fuzûlî. Turkish literature (Turkish: Türk edebiyatı or Türk yazını) comprises both oral compositions and written texts in the Turkish language, either in its Ottoman form or in less exclusively literary forms, such as that spoken in the Republic of Turkey today. The Ottoman Turkish language, which forms the basis of much of the written corpus, was influenced by Persian and Arabic and used the Ottoman Turkish alphabet. The history of the broader Turkic literature spans a period of nearly 1,300 years. The oldest extant records of written Turkic are the Orhon inscriptions, found in the Orhon River valley in central Mongolia and dating to the 7th century. Subsequent to this period, between the 9th and 11th centuries, there arose among the nomadic Turkic peoples of Central Asia a tradition of oral epics, such as the Book of Dede Korkut of the Oghuz Turks—the linguistic and cultural ancestors of the modern Turkish people—and the Manas epic of the Kyrgyz people. Beginning with the victory of the Seljuks at the Battle of Manzikert in the late 11th century, the Oghuz Turks began to settle in Anatolia, and in addition to the earlier oral traditions there arose a written literary tradition issuing largely—in terms of themes, genres, and styles— from Arabic and Persian literature.

  • Chinese Public Diplomacy: the Rise of the Confucius Institute / Falk Hartig
    Chinese Public Diplomacy This book presents the first comprehensive analysis of Confucius Institutes (CIs), situating them as a tool of public diplomacy in the broader context of China’s foreign affairs. The study establishes the concept of public diplomacy as the theoretical framework for analysing CIs. By applying this frame to in- depth case studies of CIs in Europe and Oceania, it provides in-depth knowledge of the structure and organisation of CIs, their activities and audiences, as well as problems, chal- lenges and potentials. In addition to examining CIs as the most prominent and most controversial tool of China’s charm offensive, this book also explains what the structural configuration of these Institutes can tell us about China’s under- standing of and approaches towards public diplomacy. The study demonstrates that, in contrast to their international counterparts, CIs are normally organised as joint ventures between international and Chinese partners in the field of educa- tion or cultural exchange. From this unique setting a more fundamental observa- tion can be made, namely China’s willingness to engage and cooperate with foreigners in the context of public diplomacy. Overall, the author argues that by utilising the current global fascination with Chinese language and culture, the Chinese government has found interested and willing international partners to co- finance the CIs and thus partially fund China’s international charm offensive. This book will be of much interest to students of public diplomacy, Chinese politics, foreign policy and international relations in general. Falk Hartig is a post-doctoral researcher at Goethe University, Frankfurt, Germany, and has a PhD in Media & Communication from Queensland Univer- sity of Technology, Australia.
