Literature in Life: Literature Engaging Life

Catalog description

Through the study of the novel in the U.S., this course encourages the development of students’ engagement with core principles of Jesuit education: to engage thoughtfully and critically with the notion of the meaning of human dignity, “as articulated within the Catholic, Jesuit, and other intellectual traditions and how human dignity is influenced by systems of social differentiation and by relative power and privilege.” The course also carries a significant communication/speaking component linked to “Communicating Critical Issues.” CO: COM 101 .
