50134 Culture, Writing and Textuality

8cp

Requisite(s): 50108 Contemporary Cultures OR 50229 Contemporary Cultures
Disciplinary Strand – Cultural Studies – 200 level

Writing and textuality are understood, broadly, as occurring both in various media (film, print, exhibition, performance, scripts, popular press, novels, poetry and multimedia) and in relation to intellectual and aesthetic traditions which have in recent years expanded conceptions of writing and textuality beyond literary cultures into diverse contemporary cultures. In this subject, students look at how they can 'write' different senses, spaces and philosophies and see the ways in which writing makes up culture and culture makes up writing. The sustained 'case study' is on Australia.
