Frederik Green |
| This interdisciplinary and cross-cultural course explores Shanghai's importance in China's turbulent literary and political trajectory from the last days of the Qing Empire until the present. At the same time, it attempts to place China¿s first cosmopolitan metropolis into the context of global modernism and world history. With its focus on literary texts and movies by Chinese, Japanese and European artists that range from the late 19th until the early 21st centuries, the course explores a variety of topics that are all intricately connected to China's encounter with modernity and the ways Shanghai was and is imagined outside China. |

Translating Chinese |

Frederik Green |
| This course approaches the topic of Chinese translation simultaneously from a socio-historical, empirical, and theoretical perspective. It addresses some of the fundamental issues faced when translating Chinese into foreign languages, English in particular. It also explores some of the issues translators face when attempting to render Western texts, names, or concepts into Chinese. At the same time, the course functions as a workshop where we study and back-translate existing translations, and attempt our own translations. Finally, we read a select number of texts that have become fundamental to the field of translation studies. Prerequisite: 2 years of Chinese. |

Introduction to Modern Japanese Literature |

| As Japan underwent political, economic, and social changes in the second half of the 19th century, fiction writers were at the forefront of capturing and representing new developments in style, thought, and social mores. In this course, we will examine those exemplary fictional works that helped to usher in the sense of the modern era while self-consciously questioning ideas of tradition, nation, race, sexuality, and the new social structure. Readings will consist of novels, short stories, and secondary sources that provide sociohistorical and cultural background. No knowledge of Japanese or experience with Japanese culture is required. |

| *Cross-listed with WGSS 294-02; film viewing to be held Monday evenings, 7-10pm, in Humanities 402.* Macho or pansy? Boyish or manly? In this course, we will consider representations of masculine gender and sexuality in works of modern Japanese fiction and film, covering a variety of materials from canonical novels to experimental cinema. We will consider historical and cultural constructions of masculinity in various guises, whether normative, transgressive, or gratuitously extreme. Topics will include adolescence, romance, success, masochism, incest, prostitution, violence, class background, homosociality, and repression, among others. No knowledge of Japanese is required. |
