Film And Literature As Narrative Art |
5.00 |
|
| Course Description |
The adjectives are, by now, very familiar: catastrophic, cataclysmic, torturous, terrorizing and traumatic. The kinds of events they describe—natural and environmental disasters, enslavement, domestic and public violence, police brutality, hate crimes, torture, disappearance, human acts of cataclysmic proportion and terrorism—also seem ever more common. Two features all of these categories of events share is that in the moment of their occurrence they are simply too overwhelming to experience fully; and later, when they are being remembered, when they become part of the story about what happened, they are too complex to be easily represented. Sometimes they are even forshadowed by a sense of impending doom, a feeling of despondency, as if the effects of the event precede the event itself. This complexity, in turn, subsequently causes problems for the production of self-narratives—the answers we give to questions like where do I come from? or who and what am I? Because we are at every turn, it seems, confronted with the ever-presence, the ubiquity, of traumatic events, it is important to consider how people and communities “work through” them.
In this course we will focus on how people use the act of making narratives to remember, represent and process both overwhelming events and the world-destroying impact they can have on one's sense of communal and/or individual identity. What narrative strategies do individuals and communities employ? What types of trauma end up in which narrative contexts? How and why are particular modes of narrative performance connected with specific individuals and communities? In this class students will be introduced to:
Trauma Theory, Critical Theories of Race, Ethnicity, Gender and Sexuality, Theories of Film and Visual Culture, Theories of Literary Analysis, Theories of Identity Formation and Management, Concepts of Memory and Forgetting and Theories of Ideology
In addition to examining particular narratives that are visual (films, documentaries, art work, websites, etc.), literary (novels, essays, etc.), and performative (theater, activism, “community therapy,” etc.), students in this interdisciplinary course will be challenged to examine their own understandings of self in cosmos, self in history, self in community, and self in relation to psyche. How do others, and how might we, use narrative practices to understand, represent, and “make sense” of events that themselves trouble our sense-making efforts? How, that is, does narrative production allow us to pick through the ruins of experience and reproduce the textured sense of self we understand as culture? Take this class and help answer this question!

American Identity In The World |
5.00 |
|
| Course Description |
This is a writing class that focuses substantively on issues of American culture and identity. We are the stories we tell ourselves. Narratives about the past -- the "discovery" of America; the "winning of the west"; "the great melting pot" -- are particularly important in terms of negotiating the present and imagining the future. More specifically, we will look at several key periods and processes in American history (e.g. the discovery and settling of America) and how they have been perceived and represented over time, beginning with the early observations of European explorers and continuing into the modern era of mass communication. We will look at how Americans have defined themselves, how our visions of self have changed over time, and how foreigners have perceived American values, beliefs and institutions. These issues will be pursued through an examination of various cultural productions (e.g. literature, history, film). Because the subject of this course is one with which you already are familiar, indeed, you live it daily, we will seize the opportunity of exploring together, through discussion, the nature of the American experience.
As indicated, this is a writing class; you will write often, receiving prompt feedback that you should incorporate into subsequent essays (over time your essays should improve!).

Honors Seminar In Economics |
2.00-3.0 |
|
| Course Description |
This course will expose you to research in economics. Research falls into two categories: research into existing work and original research.
For most of you, most of your research experiences have been into existing work. The objective of this course is to provide a first step toward doing original research, which can be developed into a senior thesis. The objective of this course will be achieved in two ways. The first is to give you a sense of what important original research is. The second is to give you an opportunity to review the economic literature in an area of interest to you, with the eye to identifying a valuable, novel research question and think about how you would address that question (including possible datasets). The course also has the sub-objectives of improving your writing and presentation skills.

Selected Works Of British Literature: Medieval Through 1800 |
5.00 |
|
| Course Description |
This course will cover selected major works of English literature from its beginnings through the eighteenth century. The syllabus includes _Beowulf_, selected _Canterbury Tales_, _Sir Gawain_, Spenser’s _Faerie Queene_ (excerpts), Renaissance lyric, Shakespeare’s _Twelfth Night_, and selected works by Milton, Swift, and Pope. While engaging in close study of individual readings, the ultimate objective of this course is to give students a big-picture understanding of how English literature developed during its first several centuries, and how those changes relate to larger trends in political, social, and religious history. The format of class meetings will involve a mixture of lecture and seminar-style discussion. There will be frequent short response papers and a more substantial research or creative project due near the end of term.

| Course Description |
This course will examine the elements of fiction—plot, character, setting, point of view, theme, symbol, etc.—in an effort to determine the part each element plays in creating the overall effect of fiction. We will focus on some great fictional works and look at their problems, innovations, complexities, and their influence on contemporary writing. I emphasize close reading in my approach to literature. Works are likely to include Madame Bovary, Turn of the Screw, Heart of Darkness, Dubliners, The Good Soldier, and To the Lighthouse.

The English Bible |
5.00 |
|
| Course Description |
The Bible contains some of the weirdest and most wonderful literature you will ever read, and there is certainly no book that has had a greater influence on English and American literature from Beowulf to Whitman’s Leaves of Grass, The Second Shepherds’ Play to Toni Morrison’s Song of Solomon. We will read a selection of biblical books in order to gain some appreciation of the Bible’s wide range of literary genres, forms, styles, and topics. Our discussion will include the nature of biblical narrative and characterization, the function of prophecy and its relation to history, the peculiar nature of biblical poetry, so-called Wisdom literature, anomalous books like Job and The Song of Songs (including the historical process of canonization that made them “biblical” and the kinds of interpretation that have been used to make them less strange), the relationship between (in traditional Christian terms) the Old and New Testaments (including typology, the symbolic linking of characters, events, themes, and images in the books before and after the Incarnation), and the unity (or lack thereof) of the Bible as a whole. If there is time, and as occasion warrants, we may want to think about the way the Bible has been read and interpreted––the stranger the better––by poets and writers, even artists and film-makers. Do note that our approach will be literary and cultural. We will certainly discuss much that is religious, but no religious beliefs will be privileged or assumed. Interested students of all faiths, or none, are welcome.

The Renaissance |
5.00 |
|
| Course Description |
What was the Renaissance in England? When did it begin and end and what were its salient features? This class looks at the literature produced between the reigns of Henry VIII and Elizabeth I with an eye to answering these questions. Writers studied will include Thomas More, Erasmus, Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey, Sir Thomas Wyatt, Edmund Spenser, William Shakespeare, Christopher Marlowe, and Sir Philip Sidney. As the cultural ideals and innovations of fifteenth century Italy spread to northern Europe and to England, they influenced not only literary representations but all forms of human thought and expression. We will therefore situate the literary achievements of sixteenth century England alongside other cultural developments in the arts of painting, building, and state-making.

18th Century British Literature |
5.00 |
|
| Course Description |
In recent decades, the eighteenth-century novel has been overwhelmingly discussed in terms of its alleged ideological effects: the ways in which it supposedly produces (or attempts to produce) things like deep gendered subjectivity or compliant middle-class behavior or imperialist fervor. No doubt it often did have such effects. But our presumption that the ends of fiction are ultimately and necessarily ideological has had the extremely peculiar consequence of ignoring one of the most defining features of the form: namely that, especially in the eighteenth century, novels were bought or borrowed for pleasure in a marketplace. This course will attempt to take both novelistic pleasure and the novelistic market seriously in order to provide a fuller (which means less automatically leading to the present) account of how novels actually worked in and over the period we still credit with the invention of the genre as we know it. Likely readings include stories of seduction and attempted seduction (Love in Excess, Pamela, Memoirs of a Woman of Pleasure), wide-ranging adventure (Roxana, Roderick Random), sheer over-the-top literary playfulness (Tristram Shandy), and equally over-the-top gothic exoticism (Vathek, The Monk). We will also consider, at least in passing, some attempts to rein in, redirect, or even squelch the sorts of pleasure provided by these novels.

Interdisciplinary Approaches To Narrative In The Contemporary World |
5.00 |
|
| Course Description |
This version of H597.04 "Narrative, Emotion, and the Contemporary World" explores the following questions: What role do emotions play in the making and engaging with narrative fiction in general and contemporary narrative fiction in particular? How does the emotion system help articulate the worldview and the ethical system in the implied author/artist/filmmaker as construed by the reader or viewer? How do emotions work at the level of characters, informing their worldviews, morals, goals, incentives, and motives for action? How do the narrative devices used in any given narrative fiction media work to trigger in the reader or viewer specific kinds of emotions? What are some of the distinctive patterns of devices being employed in contemporary narrative, and what do those patterns reveal about contemporary culture? How might different assemblies of content and form in the narrative fiction create peculiar forms of feelings, nervous tensions, and moods in readers and viewers? How is the more durative mood established?

Western Civilization: 17 C Thru Modern Times |
5.00 |
|
| Course Description |
The focus of this course is on Europe from the Age of Discovery to globalization (1492-present). In the 16th century, Europe was still peripheral to much of the world. By the beginning of the 20th century, however, Euro-American flags and interests dominated much of the globe. The world today is the product of this transformation. In this course we will study one aspect of the creation of the modern world through the many European revolutions and counter-revolutions—intellectual, , commercial, industrial, nationalist, imperialist, consumerist, and feminist – that helped to bring it into being. The first half of the course is devoted to European expansion and internal developments prior to 1800, the second half to European domination and its consequences in the 19th and 20th centuries.

René Descartes, The Discourse on Method and Meditations

Introduction To Data Analysis In Psychology |
5.00 |
|
| Course Description |
This course will cover the basic, traditional goals of developing an understanding of how and when to use various statistical methods. It will prepare you for advanced statistics courses like 321H, Psychology 699, or Honors Thesis work (783H). But it will challenge you as an Honors student in several other important ways. Although we often tend to treat statistical methodology as a field that has no interesting history and never changes, the fact is that the field has changed significantly over the past fifty years with the increased accessibility of desktop computers and advanced statistical analysis methodologies. It is also a field that has been rich in history and rich in controversy from the nineteenth century days of Francis Galton, Karl Pearson, and Sir Ronald Fisher to today. Did you know that the statistical t-test wasn’t just developed for some theoretical reasons but was developed by a brewmaster who simply wanted to make a better glass of Guinness beer? Or that the widely used correlation coefficient was the result of a very applied and politically charged 19th century attempt to prove that alcoholism and other social problems were largely hereditary? Traditional statistical methods courses and texts have disappointingly ignored this rich history. We’ll try to change that. |

Quantitative And Statistical Methods In Psychology |
5.00 |
|
| Course Description |
This course is intended for Honors Students who desire more than a basic introduction to
inferential statistical methods. One objective, of course, is to introduce you to concepts and techniques in applications of statistics, measurement, and experimental design. This course will prepare you for taking other advanced data analysis and statistics courses, for doing research such as Psychology 699 or for Honors Thesis work (Psychology 783H), or for working as a research assistant. A second objective is to give you the training necessary to read, critically evaluate, write, and orally present statistical analyses from empirical research. A final objective is to give you first-hand insight into controversial issues in statistical methods and to show you how statisticians solve data analysis problems in real environments. Friday sessions will be set aside for a “real world integration” period in which students will learn more about data analysis problems and applications in a number of different research and applied business domains. We will sometimes have guest speakers who will present data analysis issues in their own fields. We may also have one or two field trips to nearby places (e.g. Battelle) to meet with individuals whose work entails statistics and data analysis.

Introduction To Life Span Developmental Psychology |
5.00 |
|
| Course Description |
This course is an introduction to the major topics and theories of the science of developmental psychology. The goal is to provide a basic framework for understanding human behavior by the cognitive, socio- emotional, biological, and personality processes from conception to the end of life that suggest normative, cohort, contextual and individual variability. Class time will involve explanations of selected topics, using text and supplementary material to elaborate and clarify the methodological and behavioral issues that bear in life span research. Students are expected to engage in constructing ways of studying psychological development to understand how situations, events, cohort, and contexts influence developmental outcomes. |
