About this course
How have Arab women contributed to Arabic popular culture, film, theatre, and literature? In this course, students examine diverse cultural works by Arab women to consider how they use creative expression to voice their perspectives on girls? lives, relationships between women and men, women?s roles in families and society, and challenges to gender inequality. Across the semester students engage with Arabic cultural work by women ? all in English ? covering an array of genres, such as fiction, graphic novels, theatre, poetry, lyrics, or film. Engaging with these works, students elevate their style of writing about culture and experiment in creative genres. Students from any cultural background or gender are welcome.
