Description

Course available by Permission of Instructor
only.
A survey of the richest, most inexhaustible genre
in the American cinema. We will approach the
Western as genre, as history and as mythology.
Particular attention will be paid to questions of
authorship, the roles of race and gender and the
recurring death - and rebirth - of the genre.
