gender mainstreaming, syllabus proposal, Anglo-American modernist fiction, gender studies, university teaching, English literature teachingAbstract
This article proposes a syllabus for Anglo-American Modernist Fiction, a compulsory course in the fourth year of the BA in English Studies at Complutense University of Madrid, incorporating a gender perspective. To this end, this proposal draws on the theory of New Modernist Studies (Mao and Walkowitz, 2008) as a way of rethinking the canon by incorporating identity differences and otherness into the study of modernist literature. Finally, the proposed syllabus is discussed through the method of gender mainstreaming, where gender is placed as a transversal category of analysis in the curricular content.
