My project is to develop multimedia class materials for my new course, “The Diva: A Cultural Saga,” an exploration of the diva’s genesis and metamorphoses from classical antiquity to today. To historicize the diva’s celebrity and its many meanings over time, I am designing activities based on cultural collages, halls of mirrors, and audio-visual doppelgängers. More broadly, the aim is to create meaningful paths for enhancing students’ literacy in media criticism.
