ENGL110 PO - Inauthenticity: Appropriation, Sampling, Plagiarism, Fakery

When Offered: Last offered spring 2015.
Instructor(s): K.Dettmar; J.Lethem
Credit: 1

If “authenticity” is a key term for high and popular art created under the sign of Romanticism, various kinds of “inauthenticities” characterize much of the most interesting and innovative art of the 20th and 21st centuries. This course will explore a series of case studies in appropriative art, from the realms of literature, music, film, television and the visual arts, including Modernists like Eliot, Postmodernists like Kathy Acker and vernacular artists such as Bob Dylan, Jack Kirby and Public Enemy.
