LIT-140 Renaissance Outsiders

From artists to utopian dreamers to iconoclastic peasants, the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries are teeming with marginalized people radically reimaging the terms of their own self-identity and rethinking the relationship between selfhood and the larger culture. As an interdisciplinary conversation, this course explores issues in literary, art and cultural history through the study of texts that expose and even help create a changing sense of selfhood in the early modern period.
