I would love any suggestions from you all as experts in this area. I am a little wary of the most horrific bodily violent films, but I am very interested in the slightly more strange and other worldly works, as well as anything that deals with youth and girls (I know those that are violent in this category). My thematic is going to be around gender and somatics/technologies of visual/kinaesthetics, that is the physical "feel" of visual and performative "horror," but I am also very interested in good articles, books etc. that you all find cut to the chase both theoretically and technically and culturally. I don't have to do a history but I am interested in older black and white films also (which I have used in other courses) and of course any horror anime would be greatly appreciated. If you have any comparative works from China, Taiwan, or Korea, this might be fun too.</span></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1495769087247_26232" dir="ltr">Please reply off-list to kmezur@sbcglobal.net to save everyone's mailbox and if you are interested in what I compile, I will be happy to send this to you on request.</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1495769087247_26232" dir="ltr">My very best in this tumultuous times,</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1495769087247_26232" dir="ltr">Katherine</div><div></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1495769087247_26244"> </div><div class="signature" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1495769087247_26348"><span style="font-family:'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif;font-size:medium;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1495769087247_26347">Dr. Katherine Mezur </span><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1495769087247_26349"><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1485154967143_48910" dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0.1em;margin-bottom:0.1em;padding:0px;font-family:'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif;">Lecturer</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1485154967143_48910" dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0.1em;margin-bottom:0.1em;padding:0px;font-family:'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif;">Department of Comparative Literature</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1485154967143_48910" dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0.1em;margin-bottom:0.1em;padding:0px;font-family:'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif;">University of California Berkeley</div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1485154967143_48910" dir="ltr" style="margin-top:0.1em;margin-bottom:0.1em;padding:0px;font-family:'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif;"><br></div></div><div><span style="font-family:'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif;">1100 Miller Ave. Berkeley, CA 94708 </span></div><div><span style="font-family:'times new roman', 'new york', times, serif;">Mobile: 1-415-265-2144</span></div></div></div></body></html>
