How about a course taught through the LGBT Certificate. Introducing: ENGL 4287/LGBT 4287 Special Topics in LGBT, Multicultural & Postcolonial Literature: Queer Modernism. M-F 9 am - 12 pm. The modernist moment was a period in which a new order of gender, sexuality, and class relations coincided with innovations in literary representation. In this course we will try to come to some understanding of the much debated term “modernism” by looking at a diversity of Anglo American texts by men and women that explore the topic of homosexuality.
