Vampire as Cultural Critic — CUR4401.01

Instructor: Anne Thompson
Days & Time: MO,TH 10:00am-11:50am
Credits: 4

This seminar explores the cinematic vampire as a symbolic curator, critic, and connoisseur, one who collects, consumes, and reflects cultural concerns. Through films paired with philosophical and critical texts, we examine how vampires serve as mirrors, archivists, aesthetes, and subversive observers and how filmmakers stylistically foreground or reframe aspects of the vampire mythos.
