Humanities C1001-014: Masterpieces of Western Literature and Philosophy
Prof. Eileen Gillooly
Popularly known as "Literature Humanities" or "Lit Hum", this course offers students the opportunity to engage in intensive study and discussion of some of the most significant texts of Western culture. The course is not a survey, but a series of careful readings of literary works that reward both first encounters and long study. Whether class work focuses on the importance of the text to the literary historical tradition or on its significance to our contemporary culture, the objective is to consider particular conceptions of what it means to be human and to consider the place of such conceptions in the development of critical thought. The course number is C1001, Section 014. Registrar's Information about this course may be found here
