Studies in Asian Culture/Topics in Asian History:
The Politics of Memory: Tiananmen Square 1989.
Who decides how we remember history? In spring 1989 Chinese
citizens gathered in Tiananmen Square, peacefully calling for
democracy and political reform. In the early hours of June 4, the
People's Liberation Army stormed the square with assault rifles
and tanks, massacring civilians in its wake. International media
coverage produced some of the most iconic images of the twentieth
century. Meanwhile, the Chinese government mobilized a
decades-long campaign to suppress and censor the events of that
spring, resulting in a form of collective amnesia. Thirty years
later, the Tiananmen Square Massacre remains a sensitive topic.
This course will reflect on how the protests and their aftermath
have been remembered and forgotten within China and abroad.
Taking an interdisciplinary approach, the course will consider
sources ranging from government documents and journalistic
footage to literature and film to rock music and social media
memes.

Leading Effectively: Ancient and American Lessons.
Pericles, Alexander the Great, Cicero, Julius Caesar - these
names have lived on as powerful reminders of the debt western
civilization owes to the ancient Greeks and Romans. Despite
shifts in historical approach, we continue to be fascinated by
the "great man" and his impact on the events that have been
crucial to the development of our own culture. Even popular
media appreciate the attraction, with movies like Spartacus,
Alexander, and multiple episodes of the History Channel. One of
our chief sources of knowledge about important men of antiquity
is Plutarch, a Greek writer living in the Roman Empire (A.D.
46-120). He composed a series of biographies known as the
Parallel Lives, in which he pairs a Greek and Roman leader who he
thinks are in some way connected. As Plutarch himself says at the
beginning of his life of Alexander, his main concern is not so
much historical as ethical. He wants to present to readers
models of great-hearted men for imitation in their own lives, and
for this reason Plutarch's biographies have had a great influence
on the personal formation of the educated classes in European and
American history. Ralph Waldo Emerson called Plutarch's Lives "a
bible for heroes", and before him they were read by the American
Founding Fathers, who discovered in these texts many ethical
concepts that were to inform their ideas about the creation of a
free republic. With a work of secondary scholarship, The
Founders and the Classics: Greece, Rome, and the American
Enlightenment by C.J. Richard, we will examine this topic in
detail.

CLA-113-02 = GHL-277-02 = HIS-210-02
From Zeus to Zika: A History of Epidemic Disease.
Health is a universal concern: everyone gets sick at one time or
another and we all seek healers in order to regain or maintain
our health. In this way, we are much the same as the ancient
Greeks and Romans. Take a journey through time to see what tools
and methods the Greeks and Romans used to treat diseases that
fell upon large populations (epidemic diseases), what these
diseases were, and how the epidemics themselves and medical
approaches to them have changed with new discoveries. Along the
way, we'll study plagues in Athens and Rome, the Black Death of
the Middle Ages, cholera outbreaks in nineteenth-century London,
and contemporary epidemics like AIDS and Zika. Students will
engage the material through discussion, presentations, short
written assignments, and quizzes. This course is required for
the Global Health minor.

CLA-211-01 The Golden Ass: Apuleius & Anc |

TU TH
09:45AM - 11:00AM |
CLA-211 = ENG 109
The Golden Ass: Apuleius and the Ancient Novel.
This course is dedicated to our only complete Latin novel, a
comic and sometimes quite bawdy tale originally entitled
Metamorphoses, but more commonly known by the name St. Augustine
uses for it, The Golden Ass. Written by Lucius Apuleius, a
Neo-Platonic philosopher who was born in North Africa under Roman
rule, the story recounts the experiences of a hapless man, who
while experimenting with magic accidentally turns himself into a
donkey. The novel traces the wild adventures of the
narrator-who, like the author, is named Lucius-as he experiences
the Roman Empire from a literally asinine perspective.
Ultimately, things turn serious, as Lucius regains human form
through initiation into the cult of the Egyptian goddess Isis.
The Golden Ass thus grants opportunities for reading an
entertaining work of literature, but also for learning and
thinking about many different realms of Roman life (religion,
slavery, spectacle, etc.) as well as for thinking about genre and
influence. Like epic, history, tragedy and comedy, the novel was
also an ancient invention, and scholars are now renewing study on
Apuleius' manipulation of genres. Moreover, embedded within The
Golden Ass is a long excursus containing one of the most famous
tales of antiquity, the erotic story of Cupid and Psyche, which
was widely known and influential from the Renaissance to the 19th
century. We can trace its influence on authors like Shakespeare,
Cervantes, and Flaubert.
No background in Classics is necessary, merely a willingness to
dive into this curious book and the fascinating culture that
produced it.

ECO-221: Economics of the European Union*
The course includes a variety of topics related to current
economic policy and institutional arrangements in the EU, ranging
from labor markets and common monetary policy to international
trade policy and challenges of growth. The goal of this class is
to develop a deeper understanding of the economic structure and
policies of the European Union (EU). Additionally, the class will
help students to become familiar with some data sources for
information about the EU. Finally, economic policy is done in the
cultural, historical, and social context of individual countries;
therefore, some of this context will be included in class. The
regular in-class approach will be complemented with an immersion
trip to visit EU institutions, such as the European Commission in
Brussels, Belgium, and the European Central Bank in Frankfurt,
Germany. This course requires concurrent registration for PSC
322: Politics of the European Union.

our study of contemporary approaches to urban education in the
U.S. In addition to considering the needs and challenges of urban
communities and their schools, we will examine the growing use of

Education.
This course takes a postcolonial perspective to examine the ways
in which colonial systems of education have been envisioned and
implemented as tools for cultural expansion and imperialism. We
will consider these broad themes in relation to the specific
experiences of selected writers from Africa, Asia, and the
Caribbean, with particular attention to the educational
colonization of the indigenous peoples of North America in the
"Indian Schools" of the U.S. and Canada. During the second half
of the course, students will conduct independent research into a
culture or region of their choice.

01:10PM - 02:00PM |
ENG-107 = HSP 107 - History in Drama- "Race, Resistance, and
Revolt in Drama."
This course will include some musical theatre and opera and will
focus on Latinx drama of the circum-Caribbean. This course will
consider theatre as a site of resistance and a primary space in
which the nation was being (re)constructed and (re)developed
often largely based around issues of race and ethnicity. We'll
begin with Inkle and Yarico (1787) which tells the story of an
English soldier shipwrecked with an Indian maiden, move to the
continent with Beethoven's Fidelio (1805) set with the French
Revolution as a backdrop. Then we'll investigate Verdi's Nabuco
(1841), which makes a clear analogy between the Jews under
Babylonian rule to the Italians under Austro-Hungarian rule. The
course will contrast European revolutions with revolutions in the
Americas to investigate ideas of nationhood, citizenship, race,
belonging, and identity. Other likely plays will include Jose
Marti's Abdala (Cuba, 1869), Alejandro Tapia y Rivera's La
cuarterona ("The Quadroon," 1867 Spain, 1877 Puerto Rico), and
Luis Valdez's Zoot Suit (U.S., 1979).

ENG-160: African-American Environmental Literature.
While environmental literature is often associated with white
authors like Henry David Thoreau and John Muir, this course
builds upon a growing body of scholarship in Black Studies and
the Environmental Humanities that sees environmental concerns as
important to the experiences and culture of African Americans.
In the course, we will read authors like Phillis Wheatley, W. E.
B. Du Bois, Zora Neale Hurston, Percival Everett, and Octavia
Butler to explore the unique contributions black authors have
made to the development of environmental consciousness in the
U.S., including their recognition of ways that social and
environmental issues are often intertwined for African Americans
and other minorities. We will also identify aspects of
environmental thought in the work of black musicians, filmmakers,
scientists, and activists.

Dismissed once as kids fare or shrugged off as sub-literate-"in
the hierarchy of applied arts," Art Spiegelman once wrote, comic
books surpass only "tattoo art and sign painting"-comics today
are enjoying their Renaissance. In 2015, comics and graphic novel
sales topped $1 billon, a 20-year high. Award-winning fiction
writers now moonlight for Marvel (Roxanne Gay, Ta-Nehisi Coates)
or pen essays on Peanuts (Jonathan Franzen). Superheroes dominate
the big screen. In this class, we'll explore a deceptively simple
medium as it develops-like a teen bit by a radioactive spider-a
whole host of special abilities. We'll use Scott McCloud's
Understanding Comics, a critical text that is itself a comic, to
become smart readers of sequential art. We'll use Hillary Chute's
new book, Why Comics? From Underground to Everywhere, to ask why
comics so frequently explore sex, the suburbs, disaster, and
superheroes. Readings might include Moore and Gibbons's The
Watchmen, Alison Bechdel's Fun Home, the Hernandez Brothers' Love
and Rockets, Spiegelman's Maus, and/or works by Lynda Barry,
Daniel Clowes, Phoebe Gloeckner, Harvey Pekar, R. Crumb, and
Chris Ware. The course is open to all students; underclassmen are

English 310: Studies in Literary Genres: Autobiography, Biography

What is the purpose of a given life story, and what are the
implications of a writer's choices to omit or to include certain
details? When do authors' choices cross the line between truth
and deception, or tend too much toward hagiography or slander?
This course will examine literary theories of "life writing"-that
is, how authors choose to craft an autobiography, biography, or
memoir. Our readings will sample widely from the genres of life
writing, by or about subjects including Benjamin Franklin,
Harriet Jacobs, Henry James, Alison Bechdel, and God.

TU TH
01:10PM - 02:25PM |
FRE-377 = BLS-300-02 = ENG-360:
Magical Realism in African Literature.
This course will explore the writings of Ben Okri, Syl
Cheney-Coker, Kojo Laing and Sony Labou Tansi. To these writers,
the intense and rapid movement of individuals and goods
experienced in Africa with globalization has challenged
consciousness on the continent. While appreciative of the
increased connectivity created by globalization, they also see it
as a cause of disquieting excesses in modern Africa, and utilize
magical realism to account for this social and cultural
phenomenon. We will then be working with complex narratives that
vacillate between the real and surreal, the normal and the
abnormal, the ordinary and the extraordinary, the global and the
local, the new and the old. Some of our main objectives will be
to identify if Okri, Cheney-Coker, Laing and Tansi's works vary
from the magical writings found in Latin America, if they
translate the change unfolding in contemporary Africa well, and
if there are precedents in African literature that might have
inspired their writings. Class is open to all, and will meet on
TTR from 1:10 to 2:25. Students taking it for a French credit
will read, discuss and write about the texts in French. For
students seeking French credit, FRE-301 and FRE-302 are
prerequisites. Please contact Prof. Pouille (pouillea@wabash.edu)
for any

This course surveys the history of the region from Morocco to
Iran (and beyond), called variously the Near East, the Middle
East, North Africa, the Maghreb, Al Jazeera . . . from the
origins of Islamic Arabia to the modern post-colonial period. A
focus on empire will take us from Persia and Byzantium to
Britain, with our main focus on the Arabic and Ottoman empires of
the medieval and modern period, including Muhammed and the Arabic
conquests andcolonization of the region. We will consider the
links between the "Middle East" that we know of today and these
ancient regional empires as well as the cultural blend that comes
to be called "Middle Eastern," which we'll explore via food and
film as well as history. 1 Credit, No prerequisites.

This class will examine a crucial period in European history
during which a relatively traditional agrarian society went "off
the rails", transitioning into something susceptible to
industrialization. We will look at this history from a number of
different historiographical perspectives, in effect covering the
period 1400-1800 as social history, then economic history, then
political-military history, then cultural history.

(can be taken as a 300-level History seminar with instructor
approval).
"You know what's gonna happen with Hip-Hop?
Whatever's happening with us"
If we smoked out, Hip-Hop is gonna be smoked out
If we doin alright, Hip-Hop is gonna be doin' alright
.So the next time you ask yourself where Hip-Hop is goin'
ask yourself.. where am I goin? How am I doin?
-Mos Def, "Fear Not Of Man."
This course will examine hip hop as cultural, social, and
political history. It will explore the political and aesthetic
foundations of hip-hop cultural practices including music, dance,
visual art, literature, performance, and protest. Particular
attention is given to the sociopolitical and economic conditions
and context from which hip-hop culture originates incorporating
notions of race, class, gender, and identity. The course will pay
particular attention to how hip-hop engages gender and notions of
the masculine/feminine. This course is team-taught, and students
will benefit from a dual approach to hip-hop that includes
academic study and experiential learning. Course sources will
combine primary and secondary source documents, including
artistic, personal, audio and video sources, that encourage
critical inquiry and engagement with defining issues of
historical significance in the development of hip-hop culture.
Students who elect to take the course as HIS 340 will be expected
to write a seminar-length term paper in addition to other
coursework.

HIS-300-01: World Medical History.
In this course students will read about developments in medical
history from Ancient Greece to the present. Primarily a readings
course in medical history, students will begin by considering
early interpretations of the human body and illness. Students
will also read about the four humors (the fluids thought to
control or create all dis-ease in the body), early modern
"quackery" (treatments thought to cure illness, not based in a
solid understanding of the body), outbreaks of diseases such as
syphilis and Ebola, and the development of medical science and
research. There is no prerequisite for the course. However,
students should be ready for a Wabash work load that will include
several short papers and one longer paper at the end of the
semester. There will be no in-class exams.

HSP 107 = ENG-107 - History in Drama - "Race, Resistance, and
Revolt in Drama."
This course will include some musical theatre and opera and will
focus on Latinx drama of the circum-Caribbean. This course will
consider theatre as a site of resistance and a primary space in
which the nation was being (re)constructed and (re)developed
often largely based around issues of race and ethnicity. We'll
begin with Inkle and Yarico (1787) which tells the story of an
English soldier shipwrecked with an Indian maiden, move to the
continent with Beethoven's Fidelio (1805) set with the French
Revolution as a backdrop. Then we'll investigate Verdi's Nabuco
(1841), which makes a clear analogy between the Jews under
Babylonian rule to the Italians under Austro-Hungarian rule. The
course will contrast European revolutions with revolutions in the
Americas to investigate ideas of nationhood, citizenship, race,
belonging, and identity. Other likely plays will include Jose
Marti's Abdala (Cuba, 1869), Alejandro Tapia y Rivera's La
cuarterona ("The Quadroon," 1867 Spain, 1877 Puerto Rico), and
Luis Valdez's Zoot Suit (U.S., 1979).

MAT 106-01 - Topics in Contemporary Mathematics - (Fun) Modern
Topics in Mathematics.
How can there be infinitely many sizes of infinity? Is there an
easy way to tell which knots are just twists that be undone
without untying, and which are true knots? What is the math
behind public key cryptography? (Can you imagine sharing publicly
how to code a message, and imagine no one besides you could
decode messages, even with the fastest computers?) Did you know
there is still development in the theory of probability for
complex situations involving partial information (such as
diagnosing a disease or locating a lost airplane)? These
questions have in common that they touch on some of the most
profound mathematics of our day and that they reveal the depth
and beauty of mathematical thinking. Fun inquiry-based learning
in this course emphasizes discovery and makes these topics
accessible.

PHI 219-01 = PSC 230-04: Topics in Ethics & Social Philosophy:
Sovereignty, Territory, Borders.
The concept of sovereignty that arises in early modernity can be
described as the supreme authority in a territory. In a modern
nation state, sovereign authority secures the relationship
between the reigning political order and a territory defined by
borders. Yet in our era, the status of sovereignty as the
dominant form of political community remains uncertain. On the
one hand, the rise of international organizations and the
transnational flow of capital, labor, refugees, and violence
diminish the central importance of the nation state, leading some
theorists to foresee a post-sovereign future. On the other hand,
hardened borders, harsh immigration policies, and protectionist
trade practices seek to reassert national sovereignty. This
course will examine the ambiguous status of sovereignty from a
historical and a contemporary perspective. After studying some
early modern theorists of sovereignty, we will then consider what
happens to political space when the relationship between
political order and bounded territory begins to break down. This
critical consideration of sovereign authority will then open a
discussion of new ways to negotiate borders and inhabit political
space.

PHI 249-01: Topics in History of Philosophy: Medieval Philosophy.
Medieval philosophers drew on ancient philosophical arguments to
systematize and offer rational support for the Abrahamic
religions of Judiasm, Christianity and Islam. Drawing mainly on
Aristotle and Plato and their followers, medieval philosophers
apply ancient thinking to religious texts to transform both. This
course will examine the central debates of medieval philosophy by
contextualizing them in the religious commitments and conflicts
that motivated the debates. For example, Christian thinkers were
asked to explain how the Eucharistic bread on the altar could
become the body of Christ during the consecration if the Body of
Christ had ascended to heaven and two bodies cannot be in the
same place at once. To answer this question, philosophers like
Aquinas, Giles of Rome, Duns Scotus and Ockham argue over what
changes - is it the substance, the accidents, or the place of the
bread? Similarly, arguments about the immortality of the soul
become for medieval philosophers questions about the existence of
universals and the causes of individuation of particular
substances. This course will examine these and similar questions
with an eye to how the debates were motivated by religious
concerns. Throughout the course, we will consider the
relationship between reason and faith in coming to understand the
world on the one hand with those who thought reason alone was
sufficient for knowledge and all across the spectrum to those who
thought that without faith no one could fully understand the
world. Students interested in philosophy or religion should take
this course.

PHI 319-01: Seminar in Ethics & Social Philosophy: Bioethics.
Controversies in bioethics have become a regular part of
contemporary life. We are in the midst of a biological and
technological revolution that raises interesting and important
ethical and philosophical questions: When does life begin? How do
we define death? What life is worth living, who decides, and how?
When is experimentation on humans justified? Should we allow a
free market in human organs, tissues, genes? Should we use new
technologies for human enhancement? What does it mean to suffer
from disease and disability? What is a good relationship between
a patient and caregivers? How can we provide a just distribution
of health-care resources? We will consider these and other
questions in a seminar discussion format.
One Course Credit, Recommended Prerequisites: (i) some background
in biology (e.g. BIO 101) AND (ii) one prior course in philosophy
or completion of Enduring Questions.

The Courts and Democracy.
After twice electing an African American President, do we no
longer need laws protecting minority voters? Is requiring photo
id or eliminating expanded voter hours intended to discriminate
against minority and poor voters? Or are they legitimate means
to prevent voter fraud? May one party draw electoral districts
to disadvantage the other party? May we limit how much
corporations and wealthy individuals contribute to campaigns?
Did the Supreme Court have the authority to decide the 2000
presidential election? This course will focus on who should
answer these types of questions. Are unelected judges qualified
to supervise elections? Can we trust those who must win elections
to supervise them fairly? This course will explore that debate
and examine how it has helped shape the last fifty years of
American history.

action? Does ever increasing technological development, enforced
equality, and eugenic selection limit individual freedom? How can
the human spirit aspire to greatness in the midst of forces,
whether political or social, dragging it down?

Political Science 314: Civil Liberties in War and Peace.
This course will explore how well (or poorly) the Supreme Court
has protected the civil liberties of those we fear most: those
who challenge our most deeply held beliefs; those suspected of
violent crime; and those accused of waging war against us.
Should we protect speech even if it is racist, terrorist or
otherwise offensive? For example, should we permit people to
protest at military funerals? Should we exclude evidence that
would convict a rapist because it was obtained without a Miranda
warning? Should we extend to terrorists the due process of law
they are seeking to destroy? For example, should suspected
terrorists get jury trials? Can we try suspected terrorists if
the evidence against them was extracted through torture? And can
we detain terrorists without trial if we currently lack evidence
but believe that they will attack us if we release them?
Debating such questions will help us understand the nature and
purpose of civil liberties and the role of courts in enforcing
them.

Topics in Religion and Philosophy: "Dancing on the Bridge":
Diversity, Religion, and the Liberal Arts.
How, in a global-digital world, do we bridge the gap between
people of widely divergent backgrounds? Between diverse
religions? Cultures? Races? Ethnicities? Worldviews? Should
we aim for tolerance? Acceptance? Understanding? Should we
learn from them, in the manner of a humanist? Should we learn
about them, in the manner of a scientist or scholar? Should we
try to deconstruct hidden prejudices? How? Why? These are
basic liberal-arts questions. In this course, we will build a
model for negotiating diversity based on "play" and the "work of
art." We will use tools drawn from "hermeneutics," or the art
and theory of interpretation. Case studies will be drawn from
religion, art, music, philosophy, law, history, and anthropology.
Texts will include Hans-Georg Gadamer's Truth and Method, as well
as selections from Kant, Voltaire, Geertz, Z.Z. Packer, Appiah,

REL-296 = HUM-296:
Parables in Jewish and Christian Traditions.
This discussion-based course examines the parable as a
distinctive literary form employed by Jews and Christians to
engage moral and theological truths. Parabolic stories are
imaginative word images used to deepen and disrupt conventional
theological and moral perceptions. The course investigates how
parables work as language and story, who employs them and for
what purpose, how readers deploy and defend against them, and why
religious traditions worth their salt both need and resist them.
Among the ancient and modern Jewish and Christian parablers
studied are Jesus and the Gospel writers, the Rabbis and Hasidim,
Kierkegaard and Kafka, Wiesel, Buber, Fackenheim, and Crossan.
We also examine the visual parables of Holocaust survivor and
painter Samuel Bak and the film "Fight Club." The course engages
in the study of literature, language, Jewish and Christian
theology, art, film, and religious responses to the Holocaust.

SPA-277: Ecuador.
In his evaluation of the first Ecuadorian novel,Cumandáby Juan
León Mera, Angel Porras wrote: "The importance of this first
narrative model [in Ecuador] resides not only in its status as
the country's inaugural novel, but also for having synthesized
almost all the themes that constitute the core philosophy of
Hispanic American Romanticism." These themes include history and
politics. But they also include topics like biology, geography,
religion, ethics, and gender. The 2019 Ecuador Program will take
as its main focus the country's late colonial and independence
periods. We'll use the novel as a virtual starting point to
explore all the issues that constitute Hispanic American
Romanticism. And then, after our .5 credit course this coming
spring, we'll travel together to the country of Ecuador and its
capital, Quito, which will become the actual starting point of a
journey to retrace the steps of the novel, from the volcanoes
above Ambato to the upper reaches of the Amazon rainforest and
basin. During the last weeks of May and the first part of June,
students will study Spanish at a University in Ecuador, live with
host families, and then travel to the Amazon with Wabash faculty
and indigenous guides. Prior approval and a completed application
are required for this Immersion trip. The course is open to any
student not yet in his senior year who has completed at least
Spanish 202 prior to the Spring semester. However, preference
will be given to applicants who have completed coursework at the
300 level.

investigate historical, socio-political, and theoretical
contexts. In consultation with the directors and actors, focus
will be given to applying analysis and research to performance.
Pedagogical tools will include discussion, in-class projects,

From Lincoln Center to the Astor Place Opera House, from the
Disney mega-musicals of Broadway to edgy one-person shows in the
East Village, New York City has shaped American performance
culture since the founding of the Republic. The objective of this
course is to examine and experience the vast array of performance
offerings of the City, a rich and perpetually-changing tapestry
of theater, film, dance, opera, and performance art. We will also
reflect on the ways in which New York City itself exists as a
site of performance, both literally and symbolically. In this
course, the student will study the history of New York
performance, the distinctive theater and film industries and
cultures of New York, and "the current season." We will also
learn about the world of New York theatrical criticism, and
become critics ourselves. Through research papers, short critical
essays, presentations, and an immersion trip, students will
engage with New York City as a center of national and global
performance culture.
