Psychology and Religion in Butch, Femme, and Queer Women's Ethnographies and Narratives

3 credits · Divinity School

This course is concerned with identity/identities, the formation of subjectivities in the midst of highly defined spaces as well as broader self-defined inclusive spaces. Questions related to religion, psychology, and culture will guide us, as will questions such as what/who is a woman, what is butch-femme, and queer, but also be subjected to the contribution, challenge and critique of lived experience. Permission of the instructor is required for second- and third-year students in the Divinity School for enrollment in the seminar. [3] Ms. Sheppard
