Through theoretical and historical readings, we will consider a range of topics, including theories of spectatorship, psychoanalytic models of desire and fantasy, censorship, intersectional approaches to race and sexuality, the history of lesbian/gay rights movements, the politics of pornography, and queer approaches to cinema, among others.
