Journey Stories: People and Place in Motion

Catalog description

Explores journeys, storytelling and geographies--real and imagined. Draws on novels, novellas, short stories, film and video in illuminating stories and storytelling as transformative of self, place and culture in human and more-than-human worlds. Enjoins journey stories through the trilogy movement, place and identity; signature themes in cultural geography that resonate across the arts, humanities and social sciences. Students respond to artfully rendered journeys in personal ways via word, image and sound, creating their own journeys en route.
