Fall 2026 · Section 001 · CRN 16176
This course studies popular print cultures in South Asia from the 19th century to the present. Concentrating on multiple non-Western understandings of media, gender, and sexuality, this course provides a broad overview of bodily practices, anti-imperial resistances, and gender performances in South Asia. The course demonstrates to students methods of interpreting various print ephemera and verbal-visual representations of colored bodies, which further helps them form opinions on how gender, empire, and media are tied to questions of nation, caste, class, and aesthetics.
