FACS 4920: Feminist Cultural Theory
readings



These readings provided as Adobe Acrobat files, allowing you to see and print the publications in their original formats, including graphics. The files are quite large (like downloading music or a short video clip) so if you're connecting from home on a slow connection, you might do better to access and print them on-campus.

Get Acrobat! To view Adobe Acrobat files, you need to have Acrobat reader software installed on your computer. You can download this free software from the Adobe website. **nb These files will be removed the week of October 5th. **
