An introduction to one of the most exciting of the social sciences. Anthropology helps answer some of the most basic questions about ourselves and others--How and why did humans evolve? How did human culture develop, and why does there appear to be so many differences between cultures? How did human communication come about? Is language understood only in terms of words? How does it affect our ability to perceive the "real" world? Why are there so many different cultures? Are human behavior and human nature best explained by reference to genes, race, adaptation to environment, or to the symbolic nature of culture itself? Exploring the answers to these questions offers students a fascinating opportunity to learn more about their own as well as other cultures. Regardless of whether the student's major is science, engineering, business or the liberal arts, Anthropology 20109 is an elective of significance to a liberal education.

This course has three objectives. First, the course will help you to think critically about issues related to race and ethnicity in American society. These issues include the meaning of race and ethnicity; the extent of racial and ethnic inequality in the United States, the nature of racism, discrimination, and racial stereotyping; the pros and cons of affirmative action; the development of racial identity; differences between assimilation, amalgamation, and multiculturalism; and social and individual change with respect to race relations. The second objective is to foster a dialogue between you and other students about racist and ethnocentric attitudes and actions. The third objective is to encourage you to explore your own racial and ethnic identity and to understand how this identity reflects and shapes your life experiences.

FTT 50000 How to Teach Film Across the Humanities
Variable credits, Collins (V-V-V)
9:00a.m.- 5:00p.m. MTWRF 5/26-5/30

Enrollment Limit: 14 BY PERMISSION ONLY
This course is intended for Notre Dame graduate students who would like to incorporate films into their courses but have hesitated to do so because they have had little or no formal training in film studies. I've designed a week-long intensive course that will solve that problem by exposing seminar participants to the different pedagogical strategies they might use to incorporate films in their courses.

We'll begin with a crash-course in close visual analysis because I think that's the chief source of anxiety. So I've got this image up on the wall, what do I do with it? How do I get my students to be analytical about those images? Then we'll explore the various ways that really productive interdisciplinary study can be achieved through film analysis. How can we use films effectively to pursue aesthetic, political, philosophical, or theological issues? Most importantly, how can we talk about film as a "way of knowing" in what are increasingly visual cultures?

During each morning session, I'll introduce a variety of approaches through lecture, scene analysis, and short selected readings. We'll have a screening each day, right after lunch, and then we'll discuss pragmatic utilization of those methods in our afternoon discussions of the film, focusing on specific applications in courses now being taught or in the process of being developed.

This survey course explores the nature and meaning of the Atlantic world. Covering the fifteenth century to the nineteenth century, it interrogates the role of coerced African labour in the birth of the Atlantic world. Created as a consequence of the Columbian encounter, a main focus will be on the ways in which the common historical threat of trans-Atlantic slavery connected the economies, cultures and societies that bordered the Atlantic Ocean. Thematically this course explores, in a variety of geographical sites, the varied and nuanced claims to humanity that Afro descended peoples displayed against the systematic attempts to dehumanize and exploit their bodies. Africans throughout various communities in West Africa, North America, Brazil and the British Caribbean are the primary focal points of this course.

This course invites graduate students of all disciplines to explore the many roles questions can take in the classroom and how we can provoke good questions and answers from our students by asking good questions ourselves. Participants will read and discuss research on such topics as wait time, “authentic” questions, and ways to address different intelligences and levels of proficiency. The class participants will then apply the ideas raised in the course to generate test, homework, and discussion questions for their own subject area classes.

The plurality of cultures in the modern world, along with the conflicts that so often occur between them, makes the question of culture central to our experience. This course is devoted to an exploration of the meaning of culture within the Catholic intellectual tradition, and the relationship of such culture to the dominant cultures of the modern world. Texts from Aristotle, St. Augustine, and St. Thomas Aquinas will help frame the discussion before we turn to readings from modern Christian writers who pondered the meaning of culture within the crucible of the 20th century. Reading: Aristotle, selections from Metaphysics and Politics; St. Augustine, selections from On the City of God; St. Thomas Aquinas, selections from Summa theologiae; Josef Pieper, Leisure: The Basis of Culture; T. S. Eliot, selections from Notes Toward the Definition of Culture; Jacques Maritain, selections from Integral Humanism; Christopher Dawson, selections from The Historic Reality of Christian Culture. Readings will also be taken from the works of G.K. Chesterton, C.S. Lewis, Walker Percy, and Flannery O'Connor.

Plato and Augustine are in many respects the two most informative thinkers of the Western tradition: in Plato we have the beginnings of the philosophical tradition and in Augustine we have the first great attempt to synthesize Greek philosophy and Biblical revelation into a coherent Christian worldview. This course will focus on these two thinkers through the study of some of their greatest writings. Plato's Republic culminates in the proposal of a kind of perfect city grounded in the truth and led by the wise. It considers the perfect city as the solution to the human problem, but also highlights tensions in this ambition: its most central concern is the character of human life and the conflicts that may exist between the natural possibilities for genuine fulfillment and our need to live together in political society, between happiness and justice. Augustine's masterpiece, On the City of God, offers a kind of Christian answer to those problems that illuminates the Platonic teaching and challenges some of its premises in the light of revelation. The issues between the two works are at the heart of the Western intellectual tradition and speak to many contemporary moral, political and cultural questions.

This course will examine writings found in the Hebrew Bible and Apocrypha that scholars commonly assign to the wisdom genre. The primary canonical exemplars of this type of literature are Proverbs, Job, and Ecclesiastes. To this group, some have added Esther and the Song of Songs. Ecclesiasticus, Wisdom, and (in the opinion of certain commentators), Judith – all of which are extra-canonical workds – also belong to this genre. In addition to these books, the presences of wisdom motifs has also been detected in other parts of the Bible (e.g., Genesis, the Psalter, and Daniel).
