Weekly Modules: Castration and Medusa: Orlan’s Art on the Cutting Edge
For each module there's two readings. Each reading that I provide must have a two page summary on the reading. I would like you to first briefly summarize the key issue(s), concept(s), and/or argument(s) addressed by each author, outline any key supporting evidence or examples provided. Additionally, I hope to see you draw out connecting threads or tensions between the units where possible, and to reflect critically on the assigned texts, especially with regard to their broader social significance. What do you find important or interesting about the reading at hand? Are any aspects of the reading contentious, problematic, or surprising? Do you agree or disagree with the author’s perspective? Can you take away any points that may be applied in another context? 12 Font Times New Roman Double spaced
