HUM 2200Contemporary Themes in Philosophy and History4
Contemporary social issues are almost always rooted in ways we think about certain ideas–about “freedom,” “equality,” “rights,” “class,” “race,” “identity”, etc. With rotating themes, this course focuses on a particular social issue, first by analyzing its origins in an earlier text (or texts), and further, by following its evolution to recent scholarship influencing public discussion. With an engaging, interdisciplinary approach to research, writing, and discussion, students gain experience in meaningful public discourse by tracking a particular social issue from past to present.
