418 Feminist Theories (3)
This class introduces the major feminist theories and their primary authors
over the last 200 years. The class takes both a historical view (beginning with
two millenia of male-centered theories about women) and a conceptual approach
(theories are grouped by common ground) and familiarizes the student with both
the historical processes that necessitate feminist theories as well as with the
breadth and depth of the historically and currently available scholarship.
Prerequisite: Introduction to Women's Studies Offered: Winter Semester
