AimIn this course, we will explore the social and cultural constitution of the self while keeping a critical eye on questions concerning agency, creativity and resistance. The seminar will begin with a discussion of the classical theories of self, dealing with the nature of the self, the relationship between the self and the society, and the development of the socially constituted self. We will, then, turn our attention to the social categories of gender and race, and discuss their roles in the constitution of self by drawing examples from various historical and societal contexts such as the colonized Antilles. By the end of the course, you are expected to develop an insightful understanding of the self.
