Los Papeles Del Infierno, Enrique Buenaventura, Carlos Gardeazábal Bravo

Global Languages and Cultures Faculty Publications and Presentations

Enrique Buenaventura (1925-2003) hizo parte de la generación de artistas que conectó al país con la modernidad estética mediante un lenguaje propio, vinculando su trabajo con el de los grandes creadores de las vanguardias teatrales. Buenaventura impulsó la renovación del teatro colombiano junto a otros dramaturgos como Santiago García y Carlos José Reyes.

Sexuality And Human Rights (Spring 2014), Robert D. Tobin Jan 2014

Sexuality And Human Rights (Spring 2014), Robert D. Tobin

Syllabi

What happens when we think of sexuality, with all of its transgressive and individualistic energies, in terms of rationally established universal human rights? Literary texts that focus on individual cases in the context of larger cultural and social traditions with a particular attention to the power of language can help us sort through some of the complex ideas that emerge from a discussion of sexual rights.

In this class, we will focus on issues such as sadism, masochism, polygamy, prostitution, HIV/AIDS, and transsexuality that bring questions of rights to the forefront.

Authors in the collected volume Mapping the World, Culture, and Border-crossing — edited by Steven Tötösy de Zepetnek and I-Chun Wang and published by National Sun Yat-sen University Press in 2010— begin with exploring theoretical premises about the processes and ramifications of cultural crossings to establish a clearly defined theoretical context for the case studies which follow.
