How did earlier Japanese conceptions of sex and sexuality change with Westernization or with modernization in the 20th century? What role have death and suicide played in the romantic stories of love? The course offers students a survey of major Japanese literary works and a theoretical introduction to the field of cultural studies. Restriction(s): Restricted to Undergrad - Urbana-Champaign.
