Title: Heroes & Villains
Course Section Number: FRT-101-06
Department: Freshman Tutorial
Description: Why do we tell stories? Heroes and villains make storytelling entertaining and compelling. In this course, we will consider what makes a hero and why its antagonist, the villain, is so necessary. Our readings and discussions will be grounded in fiction and history, learning from storytellers about admirable heroes and their terrible adversaries, taking us on a journey from mythology to Marvel, knights to detectives, DC to Disney, historical wars, Wabash, fantasy, and the outer space realm of science fiction. Throughout the semester, we will utilize campus resources to explore and reflect on the meaning of heroes and villains.
