HU 110 MYTH, MAGIC, AND MYSTERY
This course investigates how diverse cultures have explained
life’s mysteries in order to understand common human problems,
values, and achievements. Students read the myths,
legends, folk tales and holy books of diverse ethnic and cultural
groups. Goals for the course include: learning about the traditional
values and wisdom of others in the human continuum,
and achieving a better understanding of our place within that
continuum. Students work in teams and choose stories and
cultures to research. They observe from cross-cultural and interdisciplinary
perspectives, and produce written and audiovisual
presentations of their findings. Lecture: 3 hours per week. 3 Credits
