Cornell University - ENGL 2630 Studies in Film Analysis: Hitchcock (also FGSS 2630, FILM 2650) (LA-AS)

Through detailed analysis of at least 15 of Hitchcock’s major films—from British silents such as Blackmail and the British talkies of the ’30s (The Thirty-Nine Steps) to the early ’40s work in Hollywood (Spellbound, Notorious), and major American films of his late period (Rear Window, Psycho)—we will consider Hitchcock as a major technical and stylistic innovator in the history of cinema. As texts for psychoanalytic and feminist approaches to study, his films invite questions about film language, the ethics of spectatorship, and the nature of desire and sexuality. Frequent short essays and viewing exercises encourage students to engage through their writing the course’s critical concerns. Regular required screenings after class. Enrollment limited to twenty. Preference given to Film and English majors.

Authors will include: Phillis Wheatley, David Walker, Frederick Douglass, Ida B. Wells-Barnett, W.E.B.

Cornell University - ENGL 2680 Culture and Politics of the 1960s (also AMST 2680) (CA-AS)

Nearly half a century ago, the civil rights movement, the Cold War and the Vietnam War stimulated critiques and alternative experiments in living that changed American society forever. What can the experiences of young “boomers” and others who lived through the 1960s teach a later generation living through a similar period of turmoil and hope? This interdisciplinary course combines an historical overview with the close reading of texts, concentrating on the topics of racial justice, war, the counterculture, the New Left, the women’s movement, and the movement for gay and lesbian rights. Texts will include The Autobiography of Malcolm X, Wolfe’s Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test, Vonnegut’s Slaughterhouse-5, music of Dylan and Joplin, speeches of King, films, manifestos, memoirs, and poems. A research paper will explore the history of activism at Cornell during those years.
