  • FIRST YEAR SEMINAR

    First Year Seminars: The First Year Seminars are for en-tering first-year students new to Butler. Completing FYS 101 in the fall, and FYS 102 in the spring, fulfills first year core re-quirements.

    3224 FYS 101 01 First Year Seminar 3, U MW 1:00-2:15 Colburn Jr, Kenneth D The Sixties: Decade of Social Change This is a two-semester course. Students who enroll in this

    topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. Semester one is a prerequisite for semester two. This course is an interdisciplinary examination of the tumultuous decade of the 1960s as reflected in the film, music, texts, poli-tics, culture, and social movements of the era. Civil rights, the womens movement, the Vietnam War, the youth counter-cul-ture, the anti-war movement, hippie communes, the environ-mental movement, drug use, violence, and the assassinations of public figures, growth of the media and technology are among the major topics and issues we will examine. The focus throughout our course will be on developing a critical under-standing of the legacy of the 1960s as a decisive period of social conflict and cultural change that redefined and reshaped con-temporary American society.

    3225 FYS 101 02 First Year Seminar 3, U TR 9:35-10:50 Butler, Jess Cant Buy Me Love3226 FYS 101 03 First Year Seminar 3, U TR 1:00-2:15 Butler, Jess Cant Buy Me Love This is a two-semester course. Students who enroll in this

    topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. Semester one is a prerequisite for semester two. We like to imagine love as a sacred space, separate from the seem-ingly more profane issues of work, money, and technology. Yet love doesnt occur in a vacuum, and it often doesnt come for free. By exploring various intersections of love, money, and labor, well learn how social issues permeate our love lives, and how intimate matters can in turn shape our social world. Well look at marriage, domestic labor, sex work, reproductive tech-nologies, and hooking up in order to think about how love and intimacy are connected to the politics of the state, the family, and the labor market, as well as hierarchies of race, class, gen-der, sexuality, and nationality. While the primary focus of this seminar is sociological analysis, well also draw from history, law, music, and popular culture to help us develop a critical understanding of our own intimate experiences in relation to the rest of the world.

    3264 FYS 101 04 First Year Seminar 3, U MWF 9:00-9:50 Dale, Robert H The State: Benevolent Dictator This course is the first semester offering of the year-long

    First Year Seminar. Semester one is not a prerequisite to

    semester two, but students who enroll in this topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. The society into which we are born is an historical accident. The society we advocate should not be so. To live in a society is to engage in Politics. What should our leaders be like? How should we pick them? Who should pick them? Greater minds than ours have considered these issues over the years. This course exam-ines what you, a citizen, owe your governmentand what the government owes you. We will look at works by Plato (The Republic), Aristotle (Politics), Rousseau (The Social Con-tract), Marx/Engels (The Communist Manifesto) and Marga-ret Atwood (The Handmaids Tale). The second semester will cover texts by Machiavelli (The Prince), Hobbes (Leviathan), J. S. Mill (On Liberty), Hayek (The Road to Serfdom), and Orwell (1984)and watch Shakespeares most political play (Coriola-nus).

    3280 FYS 101 05 First Year Seminar 3, U TR 1:00-2:15 Bigelow, Bruce Roots and Regions: Cultural Regionalism in America This course is the first semester offering of the year-long

    First Year Seminar. Semester one is not a prerequisite to semester two, but students who enroll in this topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. Students will read and write about fiction and nonfiction that reflect the cultural regions of the United States. In the fall we will examine literature from the Midwest, the South, and the Northeast. In the spring semester we will shift our focus to Southern Cali-fornia, Texas, and the Pacific Northwest. Two questions we will consider are, do we find regionalism an important influence on our identities and where is home or homeland for us, and why?

    3296 FYS 101 06 First Year Seminar 3, U TR 9:35-10:50 Campbell, Barbara Jean Written by the Body: Medical Humanities & Bioethic3297 FYS 101 07 First Year Seminar 3, U TR 11:00-12:15 Campbell, Barbara Jean Written by the Body: Medical Humanities & Bioethic3298 FYS 101 08 First Year Seminar 3, U TR 1:00-2:15 Campbell, Barbara Jean Written by the Body: Medical Humanities & Bioethic3299 FYS 101 09 First Year Seminar 3, U TR 2:25-3:40 Campbell, Barbara Jean Written by the Body: Medical Humanities & Bioethic This is a two-semester course. Students who enroll in this

    topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. Semester one is a prerequisite for semester two. Just as the heart pumps our blood and nerve endings send signals to our brains, stories about the human body exhibit similarly com-plex and interdependent relationships. These stories reinforce, challenge, or complicate traditional biomedical models. In this

    2 UNIVERSITY CORE CURRICULUM

    UNIVERSITY CORE CURRICULUM

  • UNIVERSITY CORE CURRICULUM 3

    course, we will dissect or analyze depictions of health, illness, and disability through fiction, nonfiction, and film with a par-ticular focus on those perceived or classed as different. Why do we tell stories about the body? How does language shape our understanding of the human body and mind? How do cul-tural representations of the body change over time? What are the social and political implications of terms such as normal and abnormal in regards to the body? These are just a few of the ethical considerations we will undertake as we explore the relationships between science and art, medical professionals and patients, and the body and mind.

    3300 FYS 101 10 First Year Seminar 3, U TR 11:00-12:15 Carter, Natalie L Women Writing the World3301 FYS 101 11 First Year Seminar 3, U MW 2:25-3:40 Carter, Natalie L Women Writing the World This is a two-semester course. Students who enroll in this

    topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. Semester one is a prerequisite for semester two. In this seminar, we will delve into what makes a truly great vil-lain. How does the era in which their story is set determine public reaction to a character? Who or what defines a character as either good or evil? In what ways do race, gender, disabil-ity, ethnicity, sexuality, mental illness, religious devotion, or political activism determine ones marker and/or performance as evil in varying cultural contexts? Although the primary focus of this seminar is literary fiction, we will utilize a vari-ety of mediums, both fiction and non-fiction, to examine these questions in depth.

    3302 FYS 101 12 First Year Seminar 3, U TR 11:00-12:15 Dahlie, Michael Regarding the Pain of Others3303 FYS 101 13 First Year Seminar 3, U TR 9:35-10:50 Dahlie, Michael Regarding the Pain of Others This course is the first semester offering of the year-long

    First Year Seminar. Semester one is not a prerequisite to semester two, but students who enroll in this topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. Regarding the Pain of Others will examine various ways artists and jour-nalists have portrayed suffering of people we dont know and dont interact with. We will read people like Susan Sontag, Ha Jin, and Edwidge Danticat, review articles and photography from the popular press, and examine work by filmmakers like Werner Herzog and Lina Wertmuller. In the end, the course will question whether art and news reporting brings us closer to understanding the suffering of other human beings, or helps to distance ourselves from it.

    3304 FYS 101 14 First Year Seminar 3, U MW 2:25-3:40 Forhan, Chris Reality and the Imagination This course is the first semester offering of the year-long

    First Year Seminar. Semester one is not a prerequisite to semester two, but students who enroll in this topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. The poet Wallace Stevens speaks of humans blessed rage for orderthe imaginations relentless habit of making its own meaning of experience. In this course, we will investigate how writers have depicted the minds methods of perceiving and making sense of the world. We will contemplate how forces such as memory, desire, art, and a cultures shared conceptions of truth influ-ence an individuals subjective conceptions of reality. Among the possible authors we will read are William Shakespeare, Henry David Thoreau, Walt Whitman, Henry James, Charlotte

    Perkins Gilman, Franz Kafka, Marcel Proust, Wallace Stevens, and Elizabeth Bishop. Along with this reading, the course will involve ongoing practice of composition strategies intended to prepare students for the writing they will be expected to do throughout college. One result of this intensive reading and writing will be that students will discover ways in which they might construct (or have already constructed) coherent forms of meaning that make a private sense of their own experience.

    3305 FYS 101 15 First Year Seminar 3, U MWF 10:00-10:50 Furuness, Bryan Mark The Hunger Project3306 FYS 101 16 First Year Seminar 3, U MWF 11:00-11:50 Furuness, Bryan Mark The Hunger Project This is a two-semester course. Students who enroll in this

    topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. Semester one is a prerequisite for semester two. America produces more than enough food for every citizenover 3600 calories per person per dayand yet, nearly 20% dont always have enough to eat. Why? And what can be done about this problem? This course will use the project approach to dig into issues of food security, moving from inquiry to action. In this student-driven class, you will design your own year-long project, choose most of the texts, and conduct discus-sions. Think for yourself, and act wisely and well in the world is not only the first line of the core values statement for the Col-lege of Liberal Arts and Sciences; its also the mission of this class.

    3307 FYS 101 17 First Year Seminar 3, U TR 9:35-10:50 Goldsmith, Jason Contemporary Writers This is a two-semester course. Students who enroll in this

    topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. Semester one is a prerequisite for semester two. In this course, well read texts written in this century, most of which will be connected to a writer visiting campus this year. Well look into some big questions about literature (and about who we are as readers and writers and thinkers), including such doozies as: Why read literature? Why write? What are books for? Ultimately, this class is about engaging with textsbooks, TV shows, poems, etc.and engaging with each other.

    3791 FYS 101 18 First Year Seminar 3, U MW 3:50-5:05 Speckman, Christopher The Poetic History of Hip Hop This is a two-semester course. Students who enroll in this

    topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. Semester one is a prerequisite for semester two. Since rap first rose from the South Bronx nearly three decades ago, the hip-hop movement has remixed pop music playlists and redefined American culture. Though the profound rhythm and rhyme of rap are often obscured by crassness and contro-versy, the loaded literary wordplay of artists like Common and Mos Def rewards a sophisticated listener. In this course, we will train our ears to hear raps connection to African-Ameri-can oral culture and the tradition of Western poetry, as well as the instrumental lineage that links hip hop to jazz, blues, funk, and soul music. Well examine how MCs past and present relate to their poetic forefathers and how the inclusive multicultural history of rap reflects the reality of a nation.

    3310 FYS 101 19 First Year Seminar 3, U MW 2:25-3:40 Hofstetter, Angela D The Call of the Wild3311 FYS 101 20 First Year Seminar 3, U MW 3:50-5:05 Hofstetter, Angela D The Call of the Wild

  • 3312 FYS 101 21 First Year Seminar 3, U MW 5:15-6:30 Hofstetter, Angela D The Call of the Wild This is a two-semester course. Students who enroll in this

    topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. Semester one is a prerequisite for semester two. Drawings of horses, stags, and bulls on the caves of Lascaux illustrate that animals have captured the human imagination since the dawn of the Paleolithic era as food, workers, com-panions, and fellow warriors: our path to modernity tells the tales of a relationship paradoxically fraught with violence and love. The intensity of this primordial fascination erupted with new vehemence in nineteenth-century America, England, and France as discussions of transmutation (what became evolu-tion) destabilized the already fragile line distinguishing man and beast. This First Year Seminar adopts an interdisciplin-ary approach to how questions of animals and animality were developed across both generic and national boundaries: the burgeoning fields of anthropology, zoology, and sociology will be read alongside art and literature of the period. In addition to the controversial writings of Charles Darwin, Carol Adams, and Marc Bekoff, texts will include Edgar Allen Poes The Murders in the Rue Morgue, Robert Louis Stevensons The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, Anna Sewells Black Beauty, Jack Londons The Call of the Wild, and Bram Stokers Dracula.

    3313 FYS 101 22 First Year Seminar 3, U MW 2:25-3:40 Keating, Jim Utopian Experiment in Life and Literature3314 FYS 101 23 First Year Seminar 3, U MW 3:50-5:05 Keating, Jim Utopian Experiment in Life and Literature This course is the first semester offering of the year-long

    First Year Seminar. Semester one is not a prerequisite to semester two, but students who enroll in this topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. What hap-pens when human beings attempt to create a perfect world or perfect human being? What happens when this attempt at per-fection goes terribly wrong? What happens when it goes right? In this year-long seminar we will read works of fiction and non-fiction that examine the ways we try to create a perfect world, both for ourselves and others, and we will see examples of suc-cess as well as failure. Our readings will include works such as Mary Shelleys Frankenstein and Graham Greens Comedians, Tracy Kidders Mountains Beyond Mountains, Kate Chopins The Awakening, and a number of other works of fiction and non-fiction.

    3315 FYS 101 24 First Year Seminar 3, U TR 11:00-12:15 Lynch, Alessandra J Imaginative Sojourns: Writings about the Self3316 FYS 101 25 First Year Seminar 3, U TR 1:00-2:15 Lynch, Alessandra J Imaginative Sojourns: Writings about the Self This course is the first semester offering of the year-long

    First Year Seminar. Semester one is not a prerequisite to semester two, but students who enroll in this topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. In this course we will be reading texts from various genres (personal essay, memoir, graphic novel, and poetry), each focusing on some aspect of the selfself-image, self and community, self and culture. We will discuss how self-expression manifests itself in each genrehow each genre reveals or clarifies partic-ular insights about the self. The class will be discussion-based,

    but students will keep a journal, respond to a variety of writing prompts and write essays triggered by the readings.

    3317 FYS 101 26 First Year Seminar 3, U MWF 10:00-10:50 Swanson, Scott G Dante This is a two-semester course. Students who enroll in this

    topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. Semester one is a prerequisite for semester two. Dantes Commedia was the supreme poetic achievement of the middle ages, portraying the harmony of the cosmos. Not only was Dante a gifted poet of Gods love, but all-too-human loves as well. The poet was an active citizen in the violent politics of the fledgling city-state of Florence, a pretty much untested form of government that would quickly lead on to the Renais-sance. This seminar will look at the poetic, religious, and politi-cal aspects of Dantes life in the hopes of reaching a deeper understanding of each by studying them all together. Michel-angelo in the spring.

    3319 FYS 101 27 First Year Seminar 3, U TR 9:35-10:50 Neville, Susan S Contemporary Writers This is a two-semester course. Students who enroll in this

    topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. Semester one is a prerequisite for semester two. In this course youll read work by some of the finest and interest-ing living writers, including Emily St. John Mandel, author of the dystopian novel "Station Eleven"; rock star/memoirist Patti Smith; National Book Award- winning novelist Denis Johnson; award-winning poet Claudia Rankine, author of the brilliant "Citizen: An American Lyric"; and many others. Each writer will be visiting Butler as part of the Visiting Writers Series, so youll meet the writers, talk and write about their work, and ask them questions from the profoundthe ultimate meaning of life and love or the fate of the human race perhapsto the more ephemeral but always interesting questions such as What was Bruce Springsteen really like as a teenager? or How do you like the way your book made the transition from the page to film?

    spring. Semester one is a prerequisite for semester two. Like rock and roll itself, this class will be a hybrid, an extended jam of threads and themes as we map the ideological geography of youth culture through literature, music, film, and art. This is not a history of rock and roll class, but rather an ongoing inquiry into the collective expressions of rebellion, coming-of-age, and generational battles. Semester one will examine the rise of youth culture through 1975.

    3771 FYS 101 35 First Year Seminar 3, U MWF 12:00-12:50 Pebbles, Darryl Edward Law and Privacy This course is the first semester offering of the year-long

    First Year Seminar. Semester one is not a prerequisite to semester two, but students who enroll in this topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. Law and Privacy: American Life in an Age of Surveillance. When Edward Snowden released the initial batch of top secret NSA documents in June 2013, he changed the way we talk about pri-vacy, or the right to be let alone. The initial batch of released documents revealed what appears to be not only a breach of public trust by the federal government, but also various uncon-stitutional practices undertaken at the behest of highly secre-tive federal agencies. In this class we will study the history of privacy, its constitutionally protected status and the dangers of government encroachments on one of our most fundamental rights. We will read Glen Greenwalds No Place to Hide as well as several essays by constitutional and other scholars regard-ing Snowdens acts. As we attempt to strike a balance between the personal right to privacy and the collective need for the government to protect us, we will also encounter Chelsea Man-ning, Julian Assange of Wikileaks fame, hacktivists and major players in the surveillance scandal. We will watch a couple of films, revisit Orwells 1984 and Huxleys Brave New World, and we will read Gary Shteyngarts Super Sad True Love Story, a satiric look at a dystopian, post-privacy future.

    3328 FYS 101 36 First Year Seminar 3, U TR 1:00-2:15 Watts, William H All about the Bike This is a two-semester course. Students who enroll in this

    topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. Semester one is a prerequisite for semester two. In this course, we will read and write about cycling, and we will also watch movies that portray cycling and cyclists. The first semester of the course will include units on safety, the his-tory of cycling, touring, and competitive cycling. The second semester will include units on commuting, fashion in cycling, the health benefits of cycling, public policy and cycling, and cycling and the reshaping of the urban environment. Students in the course will also ride bicycles, both on their own and in groups.

    topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. Semester one is a prerequisite for semester two. Faith, Doubt and Reason. Reading and discussion of classic philosophical religious and literary texts exploring the ways in which human beings have reflected on their relationship to God; the world and their fellow human beings. In the first semester (The Search for God), we will focus on how human beings have sought to know and understand God and the world and on how that search has shaped the way humans define themselves. In the second semester (The Search for Commu-nity), we will focus on how human beings have sought to define themselves in terms of the various communities to which they belong, including families and clans, ethnic communities, nations and faith communities. The interaction and intercon-nections of faith, doubt and reason will receive attention in both semesters.

    topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. Semester one is a prerequisite for semester two. Comedy is shifting and slippery in nature. Mel Brooks famously noted, Tragedy is when I cut my finger. Comedy is when you walk into an open sewer and die. Through this course, well think about the role that comedy has played in the human expe-rience from antiquity to the present day. Looking at a wide view of comedy (ancient Athens and Rome, Renaissance Europe, the Middle East, Japan, Nigeria, South Africa, modern Amer-ica, etc.) and many genres (plays, films, traditional fables, and comic strips), well strive to come to our own theories of what underlies the attraction of comedy. Since laughter seldom hap-pens when we are alone, we will also have opportunities in this course to attend live comic performances to push ourselves to think about why the experience is different in performance than simply in reading.

    topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. Semester one is a prerequisite for semester two. This course will examine the many ways that Americans have, over the last one hundred and fifty years, remembered, memorial-ized, and presented a number of historical themes from the broadly defined Civil War Era. By exploring Americans chang-ing interpretations and popular depictions of slavery, the eras major political and military figures, the war, the Confederate nation, and Reconstruction we will gain a more critical under-standing of how these past constructions have impacted our current understanding of history. This course will rely on a wide range of primary and secondary sources that were pro-duced for popular consumption including poetry, works of fic-

  • tion and non-fiction, current events and news, museums and other public history venues, monuments, remembrance activi-ties, imagery, music, and film.

    First Year Seminar. Semester one is not a prerequisite to semester two, but students who enroll in this topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. This First Year Seminar will analyze challenges to authority, with attention to the way those challenges are reflected in fiction and non-fiction. Larger questions such aswhat constitutes a rebellion? why and how do we rebel? what role does the rebel serve in society?these will become topics for discussion and writing integrated with the texts used. In the course of reading and discussing these works of literature, students will cultivate the skills necessary for critical thinking, oral communication, and effective writing. The course will also serve as an introduc-tion to the vitality of the liberal arts. As a seminar the class will be structured around student discussion as well as student pre-sentations, in-class writing, and writing workshops. The sec-ond semester will consider the American Civil War, called at its outset the War of the Rebellion, will emphasize the common soldier and his family, and will require a genealogy project.

    topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. Semester one is a prerequisite for semester two. In our first semester (FYS101), short stories, essays, and poems by highly respected authors of our timesuch as Dave Egg-ers, T.C. Boyle, and Zadie Smithwill drive our many varied intellectual explorations. In our second semester (FYS102), our discourse will involve longer works, such as novels, plays, and cinema. These works will tend to be more representative

    of great authors of the past and at least some will be from places far away. For our second semester, we are likely to engage with such luminaries as Leo Tolstoy, Henri Alain-Fournier, and Tennessee Williams. One of our primary goals for both semes-ters will be to have so much fun that we will hardly even notice the tremendous gains we are making as scholarly readers, writ-ers, and thinkers.

    3489 FYS 101 47 First Year Seminar 3, U MWF 1:00-1:50 Laurent-Faesi, Stephan Spellbound: The Quest for Magic in Fiction & Arts This is a two-semester course. Students who enroll in this

    topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. Semester one is a prerequisite for semester two. Spellbound: The Quest for Magic in Speculative Fiction and the Arts. Throughout the ages, the fascination with the other-worldly, the supernatural, the magical element has been a great source of inspiration for writers, choreographers, musicians, and other artists. From the tales of 1001 Nights to A Mid-sum-mer Nights Dream, from The Lord of the Rings to contem-porary fantasy literature, magic is ever-present, sometimes for the good, now and again in the purpose of evil. Similarly, the art of dance abounds with tales of the fantastic; musi-cians have given a voice to many a fairy tale; and artists have painted or sculpted countless mythological figures. This course will explore the many faces of this quest for magic in an inter-disciplinary way, with selected readings from the genre of fan-tasy literature, viewings of masterworks of ballet and modern dance, and musical examples from great symphonic and oper-atic works.

Lan-guage is such a fundamental part of the human experience that it affects everything we do and experience. Yet many aspects of language are poorly understood, and much of what we think we know is highly controversial. In this one-semester seminar we will focus on language-related controversies, including: gender and language; language evolution; primitive languages; ani-mal communication systems; nature, nurture and language; endangered languages.

Break-ing bad or behaving violently without a reason implies vio-lence is prompted by either sane or insane impulses. Inspired by the ambiguity of breaking bad, we will explore intersec-tions of crime and madness. We will examine artworks featur-ing issues of guilt, justice, abnormality and deviance to uncover particular and universal social commentaries on moral values and community constructs. Focusing primarily on written and visual German and American texts from the 18th century to the present, multidisciplinary fields will inform our interpreta-tions. Students will have the opportunity to incorporate their own interests within a wide range of topics including men

    topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. Semester one is a prerequisite for semester two. There are few topics more complex and volatile in todays world than the topic of immigration. Many 1st world nations struggle with political, economic, and social implications of immigration. What does this influx of the other do to the composition of cultural identity? What are the practical dif-ferences between assimilation and integration? Is it wrong to superimpose the norms and values of the dominant culture on new citizens? In European political circles, the Netherlands is often considered the gold standard for diversity and integra-tion. Germany, with its twisted past, is torn between confront-ing the atrocities of the 20th century, while maintaining the identity of the German people. In the United States, the scath-ing rhetoric on both sides of the political aisle has impregnated the immigration debate with hatred, fear, and confusion. But, what about the people? What are the observations and expe-riences of those caught in the crosshairs? In this course we explore their experiences and formulate our own opinions on the topics of immigration and integration.

    First Year Seminar. Semester one is not a prerequisite to semester two, but students who enroll in this topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. The story of Helen of Troy literally and figuratively embodies the struggle between sex and politics and the human propensity to forsake politics for war. In this course, we will examine how the myth of Helen is intimately connected with misogynistic attitudes, romantic and sexual fantasies, and notions of political power that may be seen throughout 28 centuries of the telling and retelling of the story of the face that launched a thousand ships. Course readings include Bettany Hughes Helen of Troy: Goddess, Princess, Whore; Euripides Helen; Aeschylus Ores-teia, among others. Those who take this topic in the fall will not be permitted to repeat the topic for FYS102 credit.

    First Year Seminar. Semester one is not a prerequisite to semester two, but students who enroll in this topic in the fall are expected to enroll in this topic in the spring. Fairy Tales and Fables: How Stories Define Us. Fairy tales and fables often carry messages, sometimes coded, sometimes transparent, which describe the culture and people of the era in which they

    were formed. Some seem ancient and timeless, others strike us as uncannily modern. We will read a variety of tales and fables from many cultures, and we will read essays written by a vari-ety of writersfrom Freud and Jung to Bettelheim and Marina Warnerin an attempt to uncover what it is these stories have to tell us about the tellers of the tales, and the characters cre-ated by their narratives. We will dip into mythology, The Thou-sand and One Nights, the Brothers Grimm, 19th century fairy tales, and some modern classics as we navigate through the world of make-believe in an attempt to learn more about our modern selves.

This course will examine and analyze the history of "hip" and its absorption into the markets of the mainstream. From the Beats to the Occupy Movement, we will use literature, music, mov-ies, art, and other media sources to explore stylistic, symbolic, and ideological ways members of counter-normative culture groups (i.e., punks, ravers, riotgrrls, gangsters, gamers, and more) create and define their identities. Additionally, we will examine the "mainstreaming" of these identities as we ponder questions about the nature of resistance, rebellion, individual-ity, and identity in our modern society.

    big piece of life. The world has played games for a long, long timeevery time period, every culture. We will study games and gambling in our culture as well as those in other cultures. To better understand games, the students will study probabil-ity theory and its application to gaming. Applications include casino games, lotteries, racing, wagering systems, as well as other games. Some analytical tools that will arise during the course are counting methods, expected value, trees, gamblers ruin, and distributions.

    3371 AR 213-MA 01 Infinity and Beyond 3, U MWF 10:00-10:50 Mummert, Phil Is infinity a knowable concept? The ability to wrestle with

    the infinite remains one of the pinnacles of human thought. Many of the big ideas of ancient and modern mathematics are related to this notion. With infinity as a unifying theme, this course aims to engage students in exploratory investigations and mathematical ways of thinking in topics like estima-tion, rigorous proof of universal statements, iterative limits, resolution of paradoxes, inherent limitations of computer calculations, and the extension of ideas to new settings. Practical outcomes include improved numeracy and sense of scale, appreciation for the application of abstract mathemat-ics, awareness of limits in computational models, insights in philosophy and aesthetics, novel techniques of thought, and a general emphasis on careful reasoning.

To achieve this we will examine a va-riety of formats including poetry, the personal essay, painting, and photography in relation to key aesthetic concepts such as the sublime, the beautiful, and the picturesque. We will juxta-pose contemporary writers and artists with those from earlier periods to demonstrate how the way we see the world is cultur-ally determined. We will complement our readings with trips to nearby museums (IMA), galleries, and the studios of local artists. In addition, we will take advantage of such local natural resources as the grounds of the IMA, the canal walk, and Hol-comb Gardens, where you will find the raw material for your own reflection and creative expression.

    flict and human suffering. These inequalities are frequently found between social groups such as race, class, and gender, and affect relationships between individuals, communities, and even nations. Sociology has a long-standing interest in un-derstanding how such processes occur and are maintained. In this course, we will discuss a systemic understanding of the re-search and theory around these issues.

So-cial systems and environmental systems are deeply connected. Social systems impact and alter environmental systems, while at the same time environmental systems shape social forma-tions and social processes. Throughout the course we will use cases of society-environment interconnections to explore vari-ous social theories, methodologies, and core sociological con-cepts including culture, socialization, social change/stability, social structures and institutions, political-economy, social movements, and others.

    can literature, and thereby seek to increase students under-standing of major works, authors, and literary movements of the period. Texts for the course will come primarily from the period up to the American Civil War, and both the texts and the authors studied will be placed within their larger literary and cultural contexts. Particular themes for the course will be pub-lished each semester in the schedule of classes. This course of-fers an introduction to the field of American literature prior to 1860. We often overlook the diversity and complexity of early literary and cultural life in the new world, forgetting that to speak of American literature at this time is to imply a field that is not only stylistically diverse but also radically multiethnic, multilingual, and transatlantic. Focusing on writing in Eng-lish, this course will respect the variety of these perspectives while bringing them into a provisional conversation with one another. We will spend considerable time addressing the mate-rial practices of reading and writing literature, the role of writ-ten texts in forming communities, and the way that these texts shaped the development of a specifically American identity.

    3281 TI 229-HST 01 Themes in World History 3, U MWF 9:00-9:50 Bigelow, Bruce This course emphasizes the increasing connectivity of regional

    Phillipss ideas concerning the interplay of cultural anxieties and cinematic impulses, with our attention being focused upon three significant decades: the 1980s, the 1990s, and the first de-cade of the 21st century. Each age, while characterized by su-perficially different sorts of anxieties and fears, also exhibits a remarkable sense of what Phillips refers to as reverberation by using those fears as inspiration for cinematic entertain-ment. However, the reverberation also cuts across time; the fears and anxieties, which on some levels are fundamentally similar, undergo intriguing cinematic transformations through the decades. Our course functions as a way to interrogate those transformations, along with the socio-political, economic, and spiritual factors (and other issues) that influence both the de-velopment of the anxieties and their subsequent transforma-tions. Our viewing will by necessity be focused primarily on horror and dark films, so strong constitutions and high toler-ances for cinematic excess are a pre-requisite. Students can ex-pect to learn how to critically view films, actively discuss them within a historical framework, prepare and deliver group proj-ects about the various decades and their respective films, write reviews of films, research films, directors, film genres, and film history, and use this research to develop projects directed by the individual students interests. Some of the films under con-sideration include: Videodrome, 7even, American Psycho, Fri-day the 13th, The Thing (1982), The Blair Witch Project, The Children of Ravensback; this list is by no means comprehen-sive and students will have the opportunity to make their own choices for projects for the class.

Students will have the opportunity to engage with some of the nations most important public intellectu-als, artists, and politicians through both public [speeches and performances] and private, more intimate dinners/lunches, and smaller discussion groups. This course is a companion to the Diversity Speaker Series with students also attending select events sponsored by the Fannie Lou Hamer Speakers Series, the Gender, Women & Sexuality Studies Program, the Ayres Foundation, Visiting Writers Series, and other relevant campus groups and programs committed to diversity broadly defined, and not confined to a particular region of the country or the world.

Conditions for justly starting ( jus ad bellum) and executing ( jus in bello) war will be explored on basis of case studies, such as the terror bombing in the Second World War, the Gulf War, the Kosovo intervention, the Afghan-istan war, and the second Iraq War. Special attention will be paid to humanitarian intervention, the war against terror-ism, and the doctrine of preventive war. We will also examine a third (hitherto neglected) aspect of just war theory, jus post bellum or justice after the war, including the punishment for war crimes, compensation, and reconciliation. During the final month of the semester we will discuss the philosophy of non-violence and antiwar pacifism.
