The romance, from Homer's Odyssey to the contemporary romance novel, creates images of masculinity and feminity. This course considers these gender representations and questions whether they vary among ancient novels, and between the romances of antiquity and those of today.

CLAS110 . Lindheim S H 18 Years Ago

Her class was like milk, it was good for 2 weeks. She's chill, but I think she's into Odysseus a wee bit too much!! I would say, if you show up to class, there really is no need to read the novels. But what the hell does she got against major/minors, she grades us on a different scale...I think she keeps us off the flippin' curve...STOP IT!

BORING!! (there are 153 tiles on the ceiling. Bring a pillow) My advice pop a No Doz before class. She's good people, and the novels are worth while. Easy enough to do well... Dude, she assigns TONS of reading...My advice show up to as many lectures as you can and read what you miss...don't bother with the modern novels...

Here's a tip: Never judge a book by its movie... But do watch the movie as 'a last anchor!' Lindheim is cool, but I think she's a little -understatement- ambitious with the amount of novels that she crammed in, but she pulled it off with a day to spare. So, take her class, show up to class, read 30-50% of material, watch films when possible: B+/A

Really enjoyed this class. The material was great and she's a decent lecturer. Obviously very passionate about her subject, but maybe a bit too much summarizing for my taste. Very good overall though.

She is very into what she teaches. This class goes by pretty fast with about 7 different novels to read. I never really read anything, and got a B in the class because she tells us what was in the reading mostly in detail.

Easy class she just summarizes the story and yeah she look like secretary lady but she loves to giggle in class which is freaky and her TA grades hard. A LOT of reading about 100 pages a week. Only take if your good at reading or love reading if not take something else!
