Myth of the West in Film & Literature (part 2)
“Go west, young man, and grow up with the country.” This bit of advice given over 150 years ago has become a catchphrase as familiar as John Wayne, the Lone Ranger, and Calamity Jane.
This 2-part program explores the myth of the West, in all its complexities, and the how’s and why’s the “wild west” became an imaginary landscape in American culture. Like any cow puncher worth their salt, we’ll wind our way through the films, art, and texts of the mythic West. Attending both sessions is not required. Zoom available.
