Incest and the Problem of Narration
Lynda Hart profile
R 12-3
This seminar will pursue the problems of narration in 20th century accounts of incest. We will be reading novels, testimonials, memoirs, plays, and films that attempt to narrate what some theoreists have regarded as the founding taboo of 'civilization' and hence the fundamentally un-narratable event. The course will focus largely on questions of genre.
