Description: MODERN FRENCH SEXUALITIES ***** In "The History of Sexuality" Foucault famously asserts that "modern society is perverse." This course will explore the meanings of this assertion by examining the representation of sexuality in French novels and films from the early 20th century to the present. Primary readings will be supplemented by medical, philosophical, juridical, and psychoanalytic contributions to debates about sexuality in the modern period. Readings and films by Gide, Colette, Leduc, Duras, Breillat, Bataille, Foucault, and others. *****
