The discussion begins with an introduction to modernism and theories of the avant-garde; students then engage with a series of creative works, manifestoes, artists books, and happenings, specifically chosen by virtue of their genius as provocative and performative "events". Includes writers such as Apollinaire, Baudelaire, Benjamin, Breton, Buñuel, Césaire, Debord, and Duchamp, as well as representative works from Le Nouveau Roman, La Nouvelle Vague, Oulipo, and the diasporic avant-gardes.
