FREN 240 Imagining North Africa: Arabs, Berbers, and Beurs 6 credits
How have North African identities been represented in literature and film? How has the sustained presence of French language, and culture in the region shaped how North African authors and directors envision their relationship with their land, their languages, and their identities? This class is an introduction to literature and film from the Francophone Maghreb. Through careful and thoughtful analysis of canonical and contemporary sources, students will question how North African identities have evolved with and against French racial categories, and most importantly how they have transformed the aesthetics and politics of Francophone cultural productions.

FREN 303 That’s Entertainment! 6 credits
Blaise Pascal wrote, “[t]he only thing that consoles us from our miseries is our diversion. And yet, it is the greatest of our miseries.” In other words, amusement is a way of avoiding one’s own unhappiness. Is the role of entertainment to escape reality? If so, what role do politics play in shaping the cultural scene? Read the queer fairy tales of Madame de Murat, listen to French podcasts currently topping charts, and discuss theatrical performances in Charleston’s French Quarter as you examine the interaction between politics and play from the Middle Ages to the present day. Conducted in French.
