中文简介:
MIT的学生给他们的大学生活带来了丰富的文化背景。本课程探讨了在两种传统中生活的分歧、成本、困惑、见解和机会,也许在这两种传统中都感觉不自在。课程阅读资料包括成长中的亚裔美国人、西班牙裔、印第安人和东南亚亚裔美国人,以及混血儿。这些资料包括汤亭亭的《女勇士》、野田佳彦的《在美国长大的亚洲人》、桑德拉·西塞罗斯的《呐喊小溪》,加里·索托的《像墨西哥人一样》,谢尔曼·阿列克谢是世界上最坚强的印度人,琼帕·拉希里是疾病的翻译,电影《烟雾信号》和《密西西比马萨拉》,丹兹·塞纳的《高加索人》等等。我们也会利用学生的作品来研究我们的多重身份,探索文化和民族传统的限制和贡献。学生报名不需携带两本护照;对阅读和写作的兴趣是受多种因素影响的就足够了。
课程简介: MIT students bring rich cultural backgrounds to their college experience. This course explores the splits, costs, confusions, insights, and opportunities of living in two traditions, perhaps without feeling completely at home in either. Course readings include accounts of growing up Asian-American, Hispanic, Native American, and South-East Asian-American, and of mixed race. The texts include selections from Maxine Hong Kingston's The Woman Warrior, Kesaya E. Noda's "Growing Up Asian in America," Sandra Cisneros's Woman Hollering Creek, Gary Soto's "Like Mexicans," Sherman Alexie's The Toughest Indian in the World, Jhumpa Lahiri's Interpreter of Maladies, the movies Smoke Signals and Mississippi Masala, Danzy Senna's Caucasia, and others. We will also use students' writings as ways to investigate our multiple identities, exploring the constraints and contributions of cultural and ethnic traditions. Students need not carry two passports in order to enroll; an interest in reading and writing about being shaped by multiple influences suffices.
