1117 ICISP	American Art in the 20th Century (1945-Present)	3.00
Keywords: Restrictions: The art strand of the module covers the emergence of Neo-Dada and Pop and the diversity of art forms, movements and engagements characteristic of the period. It closely considers the work of key artists such as, amongst others, Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, Mark Rothko, Cindy Sherman, Jean Michel Basquiat, Eva Hesse, and Philip Guston. The literature strand looks at the playful and mischievous side of postmodernism in its determination to break the boundaries between high art and popular culture, its tongue-in-cheek disruption of narrative conventions, and its paradoxical belief in the impossibility of originality. The analysis of this irreverent and self-referential aspect of postmodern writing will be complemented by the study of its more serious, polemical and politicized scope: see, for example, Tim O'Brien's and Toni Morrison's attempts to articulate the trauma of the war in Vietnam, and the horror of slavery, respectively.

1311 ICISP	American Literature 2	3.00
Keywords: Restrictions: The module provides students with an introduction to American literature, developing their responses to written and visual narratives of the "New World" and of the United States of America, from the initial, colonial rhetoric of discovery and the Puritan call for the foundation of a "City upon a Hill" to the establishment of national cultural traditions in the 19th century and beyond. Students are encouraged to trace continuities and identify discontinuities in the treatment of foundational myths, the definition of quintessentially American concepts, and the acknowledgement of the dark underside of the national narrative of democracy and progress. The module thus also raises students' awareness of how native peoples, African Americans and other 'minority' cultures relate to their own environments and 'American' identities.

1315 ICISP	American Literature since 1880 1	3.00
Keywords: Restrictions: The main aim of the module is to develop critical understandings of Modernism - the artistic and literary responses to Modernity in America in a period of enormous change. The module is interdisciplinary: artistic and literary expressions, spanning nineteenth century Realism to experimental Modernism, will be examined in the context of historical, socio-economic, cultural and intellectual developments. Works will be explored thematically, taking into account American identity, race, gender, region, the city, the American Dream and nature. In addition, the module aims to develop students' critical responses to formal and stylistic innovations so that they can "read" works of art and evaluate them using appropriate art historical vocabulary or literary theoretical approaches.

1804 ICISP	Aspects of American Society 1	3.00
Keywords: Restrictions: This module will explore aspects of American society using the concepts and theories of famous American sociologists or, in some cases, theorists who have spent considerable time writing about American society. The recurring question throughout the module will be the extent to which sociological ideas have been useful in explaining how social order, or consensus, can emerge from forms of social conflict. Each week will explore the contribution of one or two theorists, and students will be invited to critically evaluate the significance of their work in understanding aspects of contemporary American society. The theorists have been chosen to reflect the broad range of themes traditionally associated with sociological enquiry, including social class, race, and gender as axes of conflict; education, deviance, and media as important institutional means to establish social conformity; and broader social theories which explore the relationship between Modernity, Late Modernity, and Postmodernity.

1427 ICISP	Native Americans in USA 2	3.00
Keywords: Restrictions: The first term aims to demonstrate the importance of Native American history in the emergence of America. The significance of 'discovery' in 1492 and the continuing celebration of Columbus will be explored as an official national narrative set against an alternative, Native American history. The course aims to place this within a broader historical context by introducing key events in the Spanish colonisation of Central America such as the fall of the Aztec empire. Term one traces the relationships between white settlers and Native Americans as the colonies grew, working up to the American Revolution. The second term continues from the American Revolution through to the mid- nineteenth century. It aims to introduce students to the perceived 'Indian problem' and how white Americans sought to deal with the Native American population, with a focus on the ethics of the chosen policy of Removal (including a debate) and the argument that it has similarities with ethnic cleansing. The course also explores Indian resistance to government policies. The module aims also to introduce an element of enquiry-based learning or Research Informed teaching (RIT). The students will have the opportunity to hear a talk from a curator at Maidstone Museum where there is an extensive collection of Native American artefacts collected by an explorer, Julius Brenchley. He will bring artefacts for the students to see as the basis for their assignment, and a visit to the museum will be suggested. The module thus aims to provide students with the challenge of deriving cultural and tribally contextualised information based on these objects, as well as to consider the ethical issues of representing Native cultures in museums.
