課程概述

這是一門探究性別、歷史與法律的交錯領域的課程。
我們首先將由讀理論作品開始，分別探討如何從性別
的觀點來思考法律、在歷史的縱深中探討法律、以性
別作為分析歷史的範疇，以及如何從性別的角度來探
究法律的歷史。其次，則從以下三個個別領域，來探
究性別、歷史與法律的交錯關係：投票權（suffrage）、
婚姻與家庭，以及對女性的暴力（violence against women）。

課程目標

這門課的文本為英美的研究，但非常強調批判性比較
觀點的重要性。所有的文本均為英文，但心得與期末
報告必須以華文寫成。這樣做的目的是希望同學們能
夠透過翻譯/ 轉譯的過程，思辯西方作品與本土脈絡
的關係。

課程要求

修課同學每週必須繳交1-2頁的讀書心得，內容應包括
該週文本的簡單摘要、感想評論，以及 — 尤為重要
的 — 討論意見（discussion questions），至少必
須提出一個討論意見。讀書心得應於每週四下午五點
之前e-mail繳交。逾時不候。至多得缺交三次。

本學期的課程強調engaging with the texts，因此
不要求獨立研究式的報告。期末應繳交至少一萬兩千
字之文獻回顧報告（review essay），主題自訂（例
如：「差異」的歷史形構），報告之撰寫必須運用課
堂之文本。
