Horror in Popular Culture from Poe to King: Why is horror such a pervasive and compelling genre in the popular culture of the past as well a s the present, despite the ongoing desire of many to dismiss it as 'low art'? Why do we consume narratives that elicit disgust, horror, and fear? We will exami ne literature and media from a variety of time periods by horror authors from Edgar Allan Poe to Stephen King to address this question. Learn how works of horro r demonstrate a unique capacity to reinforce or criticize the social, political, and cultural norms of their times, how the narratives were/are produced and consumed by the public, and the potential productive role these works play or played in calling the ostracization and demonization of sexual, racial, and even animal 'others' into question via a number of theoretical frameworks.

Crossing Boundaries: A central myth of American society is the American Dream: the belief that America is a largely classless society, so wi th hard work and determination, anyone can become rich and successful. The flip side of this myth is that if you are not rich and successful, it is due to some personal flaw or lack of effort. The works we will discuss this semester challenge this myth by exploring the role of race, gender, and class discrimination in creating barriers to social mobility. Fitzgerald’s The Great Gatsby (1925) and Chandler’s The Big Sleep (1939) present, through the eyes of a middle class narra tor, the moral corruption of the rich and their uncaring attitude toward those “below” them. Larsen’s Passing (1929) and Hansberry’s A Raisin in the Sun (1959) portray the struggles of African Americans seeking a better life within the context of a racist and segregated society. Ng’s Everything I Never Told You (2014) explores the challenges faced by a mixed-race family, especially by the children, while a teenage boy’s difficult decision to recognize the limitations of his N ative American society, and accept the benefits and challenges of the white education system, is the central theme of Alexie’s The Absolutely True Diary of a Pa rt-Time Indian (2007). The main characters in these works have bought into the American Dream, and while some face tragic consequences, most find ways to grow a nd adapt as individuals, as a family, and as part of a community.
