The Art Of Being Human.

Catalog description

How do we humans use myth, art, music, poetry, story, and religion to make sense of ourselves and our place in the world? From cave art to TikTok, from ancient myths to contemporary films, students will explore creative works from a broad range of cultures and time periods that try to answer the fundamental question: what does it mean to be human? This course is global in its orientation, while also asking students to make personal connections to creative works that represent a variety of cultures and perspectives. Prerequisite: ENG 101 .
