- Class Description:
- CSCL 1301W Reading Culture: Theory and Practice 4 credits, meets Lib Ed req of Other Humanities Core; meets Lib Ed req of Writing Intensive Instructor: STAFF Description: This course turns on one central question: How do things 'mean?' Specifically, how do cultural texts mean in relation to each other and to human life in society and across history? 'Cultural texts' are made objects and forms of communication that encode messages and values, and that produce effects--anything from movies, TV shows, magazine ads and rock concerts to 'high art' (paintings, classical music, plays, poems, etc.). The course specifically examines: (1) the role played by cultural forms in creating, maintaining or challenging social boundaries and power relationships; and (2) the ways art and culture function as sites where creative and alternative visions of 'the good life' come into being. Small classes emphasize close reading, discussion, and practice in critical writing. An introductory course in every sense, it's a good place to start thinking about what "culture" is and how it works. It will also help you develop reading and writing techniques useful for many courses and majors. Class Time: 40% lecture, 60% discussion
