Topics in American Studies 1: Church and State in American History

Course title: Topics in American Studies 1: Church and State in American History
Instructor:
Prof. Douglas Ambrose
(Fulbright Scholar)
ECTS credits: 6
Status: Elective
Language: English
Semester: 7th or 9th
Enrolment requirements: enrolment in the 7th and/or 9th semester

Course Purpose:
This seminar examines the fascinating relations between religion and politics in colonial British North America and the United States from the colonial era through the nineteenth century.  Beginning with the biblical, ancient, and medieval contexts of church/state relations, we will devote the bulk of our time to an examination of the working out of those relations in the colonial, early national, and antebellum eras.  We will then briefly consider some postbellum developments.  Throughout the course, we will focus on the ways in which American church/state relations demonstrated both continuity with the larger Western history of such relations and a distinct “American” situation and response.
Format:
We will conduct the class primarily as a seminar.  On Wednesdays, I will present a lecture that will provide the context for our Friday seminar discussions.  The Wednesday lectures are not to be monologues; I encourage questions and discussion throughout my lecture.  Seminar meetings depend on the active, informed, and collegial participation of the seminarians—the students.
Showing up does not constitute participation; you must thoughtfully join the conversation.
Course Readings:
We will read a variety of primary and secondary materials. The required readings will be available either on Omega or online.
Course Requirements:
I expect students to attend all class meetings, complete the required readings before our Wednesday meetings, and participate in discussions.  All students will complete a 12 to 15-page paper, based on primary sources, on a topic related to church/state relations in pre-twentieth-century American history.  Each student will determine his or her paper topic in consultation with me.  There will also be a final examination.
Evaluation:
I will evaluate your performance based on attendance, class participation, the research paper, and the final examination.

Contemporary US Ethnic Literatures (2012/13)

Course title: Contemporary US Ethnic Literatures
Instructor: Assoc. Prof. Jelena Šesnić
Semester: 7th or 9th
Course description: The course will look into a very innovative and dynamic section of contemporary US literary/cultural production—literature produced by and about different established and newly arisen “ethnic communities” with special focus on post-Vietnam War developments. We shall address new modes of representing the ways of belonging, community and citizenship in relation to representative ethnic groups (African American, Native American), while in the second part of the course the attention will be given to the ways new cultural productions (both visual and textual) address concerns felt by more recent or recently more visible ethnic and racial formations (Asian American, Latino, Arab American, etc.). These textual and visual artefacts make evident some continuing concerns with nation- and community-building in the States, while they depict a new class of national subjects, a new generation of Americans.

Course title: A Historical Survey of the Fantastic in British Literature
Instructor
: Asst. Prof. Iva Polak
ECTS credits: 6
Status: elective
Semester: 7th and 9th  semester
Enrollment requirements: enrollment in the 7th and/or 9th semester
Course description: The course offers a historical survey of fantasy in British literature and includes discussion on the most seminal theoretical works on fantasy and the fantastic. Texts belonging to the earlier periods will be discussed in the framework of fantasy as a specific historical mode o whereas texts appearing alongside the rise of the novel, i.e. from Romanticism onwards, will be analyzed against the theory of the fantastic as a prose genre. Some literary works are analyzed alongside their cinematic adaptations. Treatment of fantasy and the fantastic will raise issues such as mimesis, rhetoric of the real and unreal, reasons for early appearance of fantasy in literature  and its parallel existence with works written into literary realism.  Analysis of selected text will be based on the introduction of terminology relevant for this field, such as fantasy, fantastic, the fantastic and its neighbouring (sub)genres.
Objectives: Strengthening students’ awareness of the existence of fantasy from the very beginnings of English literature; detection of shifts in the meaning and importance of the fantastic in literature; a clearer understanding of the postulates of the fantastic.
Course requirements: The final grade is based on continuous assessment which includes regular attendance, preparation for and participation in class, writing small assignments, and timely submission of the final paper. The paper is worth 70% and other elements of continuous assessment are worth 30% of the final grade. Students must meet all requirements of continuous assessment.
