GENDER AND CULTURE

The course examines the role of gender in both Western and Eastern cultures to show how different various approaches to gender have been worldwide. It looks at the interdisciplinarity of Cultural Studies and the evolution of research orientations in terms of changing views on the gender roles in the past and now. It shows how gender forms and practices can be analysed, evaluated and explained in the context of various theoretical models (e.g., psychological, sociological, anthropological ones). It acquaints students with terminology and conceptual framework of both Cultural and Gender Studies. In project work, the course appropriates the theoretical apparatus to the study of gender.
