ENGL 3924

Vietnam War in Literature and Film

Course Description

Disciplines

Artistic, Interpretive, & Philosophical Inquiry

In the US, "Vietnam" signifies not a country but a lasting syndrome that haunts American politics and society, from foreign policy to popular culture. But what of the millions of Southeast Asian refugees the War created? What are the lasting legacies of the Vietnam War for Southeast Asian diasporic communities? We will examine literature and film (fictional and documentary) made by and about Americans, Vietnamese, Cambodians, Laotians, and Hmong.
