LITCI2498 Contemporary Fiction
This unit analyses a range of contemporary texts that address current concerns of literary theory, including authorship, postmodernism, psychoanalysis, race, class, gender, sexuality, history, politics and social change. The unit concerns itself only with texts written in the last twenty five years and is particularly concerned to consider fin de siècle literature and literature of the new millenium and their relationship to social and cultural change. The texts are drawn from a range of traditions (US, British, Australian, French, for example) and a range of media (novel, graphic novel and film, for example).
