ART-210-01=BLS-270-04
African American Contemporary art synthesizes approaches from art
history, Black Studies and visual culture studies to investigate
race and representation in the United States since 1919. In this
course we will discuss historical art movements such as the Red
Summer, the Harlem Renaissance, Social Realism, Abstraction,
Magical Realism, and Afrofuturism. We will utilize digital
humanities investigation techniques such as mapping and network
theory to explore how African American artists addressed ideas
about race and belonging through works of art, and through the
ties they forged within artist communities, collectives, and
social movements.

TU TH
01:10PM - 02:25PM |
This course takes an intersectional approach to the study of art
through movies and video games. Rather than viewing works of art
as discrete objects on display in a gallery, we will explore the
ways that films, video games, painting, drawing and sculpture
shape societal and individual ideas about gender. We will analyze
how fine art informs popular media such as John Wick, The Harder
They Fall, Birds of Prey, and the Assassin's Creed franchise, and
what these media communicate about representations of gender
identity and performance.

This course re-evaluates the tropes and mainstream conventions of
narrative filmmaking and focuses on the methodologies of the
artist/filmmaker who uses the medium as a personal form of
expression. It examines alternative modes of cinematic
production, revolving around the Avant-guard, underground,
abstract, poetic, transcendental, and visionary. Students will
learn basic camera operation, editing software, audio field
recording, and sound design. They will have the opportunity to
explore their ideas through project prompts, with parameters
designed to develop specific skill sets and aesthetic
sensibilities. Depending on the semester, projects may include:
remixing current/archival images and footage, time and repetition
experiments, compositing/2D collage, nonlinear narratives, and
site-specific projection. No previous camera or editing
experience is required.

The field of Social Practice blurs the line between life and art,
emphasizing creative work that connects to current social and
cultural issues. Students will develop projects in response to
social and cultural issues that are relevant to them, once areas
of interest are identified they will research various strategies
for expression to create socially engaged art projects. The
course pays particular attention to underrepresented artists to
better understand the ways in which social practice artists use
evocative and agitational strategies to subvert oppressive
systems. Among other topics we will consider issues of place,
identity, immigration, climate, the role of the global majority
in the social fabric, the nature of public space, and using art
as a conduit for creative transformation in our contemporary
life.

Over the past decade, Chinese science fiction in translation has
garnered attention worldwide, winning international awards and
bringing Chinese literature to a wider audience than ever before.
The genre is often seen as a way of representing China's
breakneck economic and technological development in a political
environment where censorship is the norm. This course will
consider the development of Chinese science fiction from the
early twentieth century to the present. Stories will touch on
themes ranging from cyborgs to alien invasion to environmental
catastrophe. We will consider Chinese science fiction's unique
contributions to both Chinese literary tradition and global
science fiction. All readings will be in English.

Altergott R |
TU TH
09:45AM - 11:00AM |
FRE-277-01=HIS-230-02=BLS-270-01
Who gets to write History? This seminar will approach French
colonial history through the lens of the "archive" as a site of
knowledge and power. What alternative modes of knowledge
production and preservation have risen to challenge dominant
historical narratives across the Francophone world? How do the
formal aspects and possibilities of a medium change how memories
get transmitted? Drawing from historical sources, novels, and
multimedia objects-from podcasts to photographs, graphic novels,
and video games-we will learn to critique imperial modes of
representation and elaborate a new definition of "the archival"
through orality, repertoire, testimony, historical fiction, and
other Francophone cultural productions.
This course will be taught in English, and we will use English
translations of French texts. Those taking the course for credit
towards the French major or minor will be expected to do the
readings and written assignments in French.
This course is cross-listed with History and Black Studies. It
also satisfies requirements for the Film and Digital Media minor,
as well as the diversity requirement for PPE majors.

BLS-270-02 Law & Literature |
Whitney J |
TU TH

ENG-270-01=BLS-270-02
What does reading literature teach us about the connections
between race and law? How can legal and literary texts be read to
understand issues of race and justice? In this class, we will
discuss how literature (both fiction and non-fiction) examines
the way the law negotiates and reinforces systems of race, bias
and racism. We will think about the ways in which different
literary works depict the law and encourage us to be skilled
interpreters/critics of the law. Assigned reading material will
include Bryan Stevenson's Just Mercy, Toni Morrison's The Bluest
Eye, Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird, and legal writings from
a number of legal scholars such as Michelle Alexander and Cheryl
Harris. Major assignments will include quizzes, short literary
analysis essays, an in-class oral presentation, and a final exam.
Students interested in either attending law school or doing any
public policy work are highly encouraged to take the course.

Lake T |
TU TH
08:00AM - 09:15AM |
What is the connection between spiritual dance and twerking? They
are both dances inspired by African rhythmic and aesthetic
movements. African and African Diasporic dance traditions are
deployed for a range of ritual and cultural expressions.
Spiritual movements in worship are meant to free the body from
the mundane world bracketed by time and space while stylized
movements in the club and on music videos are evocative of a
worldly freedom. What is the source of these movements and
gestures? How are we to make sense of the various religious and
social articulation of Black bodies in the past and today? This
course will explore Black dance across history and geography and
at the intersections of race, class, gender and our modern
hyper-media economy. Students will be able to trace the history
of Black people through dance and critically engage dance for its
social, political and economic valences.

This course considers the overlapping lives and legacies of
Malcolm X and Nelson Mandela, two revolutionary figures whose
influence on the fight for civil rights in America and Africa was
profound and far reaching. Though the American public rarely
imagined them as political bedfellows in their time, their lives
had striking autobiographical similarities and pan-African
connections. Students will examine the convergences and
confluences of their biographies, political ideologies, and
activism while exploring broader issues including colonialism,
civil disobedience, cultural resistance, social justice, and
freedom. We will consider how their lives intersected in the
transnational struggle for racial equality and how their legacies
continue to shape contemporary debates about black identity and
the continued crisis of American race relations. Notably,
students will also connect the lives of both men to Black
experience at Wabash College and the Crawfordsville community
since the 1950s.

Despite its widespread image as a white, racially homogenous
country, Germany is home to a vibrant and growing Black community
with a long and complicated history. Students in this course will
explore the history of Black Germany beginning with the 19th
century colonial encounters between Germany and the African
diaspora and the emergence of a German born Black population. The
course will consider questions of nationality, citizenship, race,
and identity, such as "What does it means to be German?" and
"What does it mean to be Black?" from transnational and

PSC-210-01=PPE-238-01=BLS-280-05
This course examines the role of protest as a means of political
expression that has been used by a variety of political actors
seeking to change the policies and political practices of the
United States throughout its history. The focus will be on two
overarching questions: Why has protest been such a fixture of
American politics? And to what extent does it actually influence
public policy outcomes? In addition to considering frameworks for
making sense of the role of protest in the development of US
public policy in general, we'll take a close look at the
experiences of three specific protest movements: the
mid-twentieth-century Civil Rights Movement; the Tea Party, and
the contemporary Environmental Justice Movement. Students will
also have the opportunity to research the policy impact of a
US-based protest initiative of their choosing.

BLS-300-01 Anti-Racist Christian Theology |
Nelson D |

REL-373-01=BLS-300-01
"Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence
encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. Sometimes we must
interfere." -- Elie Wiesel, Holocaust survivor. The world is
finally understanding that there can be no teaching about race
that is not also teaching against racism. This course will
compare the Black experience in the United States, and
theological reflection thereon, with Black experience under the
brutal Apartheid regime in South Africa. We begin by examining
first-person narratives from Black and White Americans on the
harms done by racism. We will do the same with Black (Bantu),
White and the so-called "Cape-Coloured" South Africans. Then we
will look at histories told about how the parallel systems of
oppression were conceived, installed and how they functioned. The
last half of the class explores arguments made by James Cone on
how the cross of Jesus Christ looks like (and unlike) a lynching
tree; by South African Allan Boesak on the dangerous but
tantalizing specter of "hope"; and by the womanist theologian
Kelly Brown Douglas on theology in the wake of the killing of
teenager Trayvon Martin.

Benedicks C |

11:00AM - 11:50AM |
ENG-310-01=GEN-300-01=BLS-300-03
This class is about the ghosts that haunt the literature of the
American South. After the Civil War, when the ideal of the
pastoral plantation crumbled, Southern writers sought to contend
with the brutal historic realities that had always lurked behind
the white-pillared façade: poverty, violence, slavery, racism,
patriarchy. Southern Gothic literature-which emerged in the early
19th century and continues strong today-is marked by dark humor,
transgressive desires, grotesque violence, folk spiritualism,
hereditary sins, emotional and environmental isolation,
supernatural forces, and punishing madness. In this class, we
will listen to the stories that the ghosts of the American South
have told, and still tell today.

The Greeks were a polytheistic society: they worshipped numerous
gods. Moreover, they did so in a variety of modes and for a
multitude of reasons. Using ancient literature and archaeological
remains, we will consider the nature and function of the gods of
the Greek pantheon, as well as the sacred spaces, festivals,
dedications, and rituals through which the Greeks worshipped
their deities from the Bronze Age through the Hellenistic period
and the rise of Christianity. As we explore these topics, we will
situate religion within the changing social and historical
contexts of the ancient world. This entails analysis of the
relation between cults and the state, especially Athenian
democracy; the impact of deities and festivals on warfare, the
economy, athletics, and literature; and the role of refugees,
slaves, women, and other marginalized groups. The course is
discussion oriented; most class periods will be spent in
conversation about assigned readings. An intensive immersion
component rounds out the course: we will travel to Greece from
May 7-17, 2023.

09:45AM - 11:00AM |
The continued popularity of crime scene analysis dramas and
literary whodunits reflect society's fascination with criminal
investigation. This introductory survey course in chemistry will
focus on the theme of forensic science. Designed for non-science
concentrators, this class explores the historical and
philosophical developments in chemistry, as well as applications
of chemical principles to criminalistics in the laboratory
setting. Topics include the development of the atomic theory of
matter, atomic structure, chemical bonding, thermodynamics, the
chemistry of life (organic and biochemistry), and forensic
analysis. In addition, the course will explore the role of
forensics in law enforcement, data ethics, bias, and issues
relating to equity and social justice. Some elementary
mathematics and simple statistics will be required for problem
solving in class and lab. Two lectures and one laboratory each
week. Partially fulfills the College laboratory science
requirement but cannot be combined with CHE101 or CHE 111 to
complete the laboratory science requirement. This course does not

This course will focus on learning how to improvise with the
Blues, and then teaching that improvisational skill to K - 12
school-age students in their native educational environment.
Students will spend the first six weeks of the course on the
Wabash campus learning, first, how to improvise with the blues
and, second, how to teach this skill to younger students. Wabash
students will be divided up into groups of 2 - 3 who will then be
placed in a classroom corresponding with their age-level
interests. The second half of the course will then be spent in
an area K - 12 music classroom, teaching school-age students
these improvisational skills. Wabash students will receive
specific pedagogical methods appropriate for the age group in
which they will be working, and the instructor will be able to
observe their in-classroom teaching several times throughout the
second half of the semester. While the ability to read music is
not a requirement for this class, the willingness to sing for

09:00AM - 09:50AM |
Travel with Dante through hell, purgatory, and the celestial
sphere-and also deep into the world of Medieval Italy. Dante
Alighieri's Divina Commedia (in English, The Divine Comedy), is
an epic poem written by a man in crisis. Depressed and driven
from his homeland, Dante dedicated a decade of his life to this
work, seeking to find meaning in heartbreak, exile, and tragic
loss. What is the narrator looking for? Himself. His first
love. Home. Revenge. Salvation. God. Each of these answers is
correct, yet none is sufficient. Along the way, the poem is
unsparing, as it exposes the corruption of politicians, popes,
priests, and commoners alike. On this literary journey, we will
read about the people, places, beliefs, and questions that moved
the spiritual seekers of the Middle Ages, and line them up
against the questions that plague our own age. Past students in
this course have been surprised and pleased by how Dante's search
for moral and ethical clarity-and his boldness in speaking truth
to power-has inspired them on their own journeys.

From Akira Toriyama's Dragon Ball to Sui Ishida's Tokyo Ghoul,
Japanese manga and anime have earned a reputation for being
globally influential genres of literature and entertainment.
Japanese manga artists often use their manga to interrogate
complex themes of humanity, technology, gender, race, existential
beliefs, and culture. Likewise, Japanese anime uses cinematic
visual storytelling to raise questions about adolescence,
identity, and personal growth. This course will delve into a
variety of Japanese anime and manga genres in order to discover
how these mediums function as literature. Assigned reading
material includes Naoko Takeuchi's Sailor Moon, Akira Toriyama's
Dragon Ball, Sui Ishida's Tokyo Ghoul, Hiromu Arakawa's Fullmetal
Alchemist, and other works. We will also engage several anime
adaptations, such as Noriyuki Abe's Yu Yu Hakusho: Ghost Files,
Mitsuru Hongo's Outlaw Star, Shinichiro Watanabe's Cowboy Bebop
and Daisuke Nishio's Dragon Ball Z. Major assignments will
include quizzes, short literary analysis papers, an in-class oral
presentation, a midterm exam, and a comprehensive final exam on
the material.

Healey C |
M W F
10:00AM - 10:50AM |
ASI-112-02=ENG-180-02
Over the past decade, Chinese science fiction in translation has
garnered attention worldwide, winning international awards and
bringing Chinese literature to a wider audience than ever before.
The genre is often seen as a way of representing China's
breakneck economic and technological development in a political
environment where censorship is the norm. This course will
consider the development of Chinese science fiction from the
early twentieth century to the present. Stories will touch on
themes ranging from cyborgs to alien invasion to environmental
catastrophe. We will consider Chinese science fiction's unique
contributions to both Chinese literary tradition and global
science fiction. All readings will be in English.

01:10PM - 02:00PM |
This course unfolds at the intersections of creative writing and
technology. Design your own website. Create an interactive
environment. Manipulate code to make poetry. We will explore a
range of digital humanities, including open-access research
design, digital mapping, and multimodal writing. Students will
craft texts in multiple genres, such as personal narratives,
free-verse poetry, and drama. Then, we will practice using a
series of digital platforms that enhance storytelling by
representing narratives in multiple modes: visual, auditory,
spatial, and more. By the end of the semester, students will have
experience with computer coding, digital mapping, crafting
original work in Google Sites, and video production. There are no
prerequisites or tech requirements for this course. No previous
knowledge of coding is necessary. Computers, cameras, and apps
will be made available, so it is not necessary to own a personal
laptop to complete this course successfully. Most of the
resources featured here are freely available so students develop
multimodal writing skills for diverse media and contexts that are
applicable beyond our class together.

ENG-270-01=BLS-270-02
What does reading literature teach us about the connections
between race and law? How can legal and literary texts be read to
understand issues of race and justice? In this class, we will
discuss how literature (both fiction and non-fiction) examines
the way the law negotiates and reinforces systems of race, bias
and racism. We will think about the ways in which different
literary works depict the law and encourage us to be skilled
interpreters/critics of the law. Assigned reading material will
include Bryan Stevenson's Just Mercy, Toni Morrison's The Bluest
Eye, Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird, and legal writings from
a number of legal scholars such as Michelle Alexander and Cheryl
Harris. Major assignments will include quizzes, short literary
analysis essays, an in-class oral presentation, and a final exam.
Students interested in either attending law school or doing any
public policy work are highly encouraged to take the course.

ENG-310-01 Southern Gothic Literature |
Benedicks C |

11:00AM - 11:50AM |
ENG-310-01=BLS-300-03=GEN-300-01
This class is about the ghosts that haunt the literature of the
American South. After the Civil War, when the ideal of the
pastoral plantation crumbled, Southern writers sought to contend
with the brutal historic realities that had always lurked behind
the white-pillared façade: poverty, violence, slavery, racism,
patriarchy. Southern Gothic literature-which emerged in the early
19th century and continues strong today-is marked by dark humor,
transgressive desires, grotesque violence, folk spiritualism,
hereditary sins, emotional and environmental isolation,
supernatural forces, and punishing madness. In this class, we
will listen to the stories that the ghosts of the American South
have told, and still tell today.

08:00AM - 09:15AM |
This class addresses multiple ways of knowing, experiencing, and
representing the world. We will explore literary and media
representations of and by people on the Autism Spectrum. While
neurodivergency is often considered "abnormal," we will take it
seriously as a valid form of meaning-making. We will read novels
and short stories by people on the Autism Spectrum as well as
analyze film and TV representations of neurodivergency. We will
also address the growing body of theory on neurodiversity and its
place in education and society. I welcome everyone to this class
regardless of major or experience; however, I would like to have
a brief conversation with you before you enroll in the course.

FRE-277-01=HIS-230-02=BLS-270-01
Who gets to write History? This seminar will approach French
colonial history through the lens of the "archive" as a site of
knowledge and power. What alternative modes of knowledge
production and preservation have risen to challenge dominant
historical narratives across the Francophone world? How do the
formal aspects and possibilities of a medium change how memories
get transmitted? Drawing from historical sources, novels, and
multimedia objects-from podcasts to photographs, graphic novels,
and video games-we will learn to critique imperial modes of
representation and elaborate a new definition of "the archival"
through orality, repertoire, testimony, historical fiction, and
other Francophone cultural productions.
This course will be taught in English, and we will use English
translations of French texts. Those taking the course for credit
towards the French major or minor will be expected to do the
readings and written assignments in French.
This course is cross-listed with History and Black Studies. It
also satisfies requirements for the Film and Digital Media minor,
as well as the diversity requirement for PPE majors.

utopia, architecture, clothing, children, the family, and more.
We will study her as a Machiavellian, a pragmatist, and a
pull-yourself-up-by-your-bootstraps American. Students will
conduct original research into The Forerunner, a magazine Gilman
wrote from front to back-even the advertisements. Students will
read sections of The Forerunner and come together to discuss the
political ideas they encounter there, before developing their own
original analysis of those sections.

"What does it mean to be Black?" from transnational and

The economic impact of the COVID pandemic, including the
evictions it caused, reflects a harsh reality: tens of millions
of Americans still live in poverty although this is the richest
nation on earth. What should government do about this? From the
New Deal to the present, have our federal, state and local
poverty initiatives done more harm or good? Have government
benefits lifted citizens out of poverty or created dependency
that traps them in poverty? Has government integrated citizens or
continued to segregate them based upon race or wealth? Or should
the focus instead be on our courts? Do they extend equal justice
to the poor, or do they favor landlords and others with whom the
poor do business? This is a critical time to ask these
questions. Even before the pandemic struck, America had one of
the highest levels of economic inequality and one of the lowest
levels of economic mobility in its own history and among other
industrialized nations. In addition, while the poor are
participating less in politics, wealthy Americans are
participating and funding politics more and more. Given the
importance and difficulty of these issues, we will consider a
wide variety of views including those of liberals, conservatives,
and libertarians. We will ground our study not only in history
but also in the present, lived experience of the urban poor as
reported in Matthew Desmond's Evicted and the rural poor as
reported in JD Vance's Hillbilly Elegy.

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, political, and philosophical questions. Focused
especially on concepts of autonomy and dependency, we will
explore asking: When does life begin? How do we define death?
What life is worth living, who decides, and how? What does it
mean to suffer from disease and disability? Should we mandate
vaccination for disease? Should we use new technologies for human
enhancement? What is a good relationship between a patient and
caregivers? What is informed consent and how do we decide who is
competent to give it? What is trauma-informed care?
Gender-affirming care? Who should take care of our elders and how
should we approach end-of-life care? What is our responsibility
for providing a just distribution of health-care resources in our
communities, both local and global? We'll consider these
questions and more in a seminar discussion format.
Background in biology suggested. Interested students who don't
satisfy the prerequisites should contact the instructor.

influence on the fight for civil rights in America and Africa was
profound and far reaching. Though the American public rarely
imagined them as political bedfellows in their time, their lives
had striking autobiographical similarities and pan-African
connections. Students will examine the convergences and
confluences of their biographies, political ideologies, and
activism while exploring broader issues including colonialism,
civil disobedience, cultural resistance, social justice, and
freedom. We will consider how their lives intersected in the
transnational struggle for racial equality and how their legacies
continue to shape contemporary debates about black identity and
the continued crisis of American race relations. Notably,
students will also connect the lives of both men to Black
experience at Wabash College and the Crawfordsville community
since the 1950s.

MUS-204-01 Teaching Jazz Improvisation |
Williams S |
TU TH
09:45AM - 11:00AM |
MUS-204-01=EDU-230-01
This course will focus on learning how to improvise with the
Blues, and then teaching that improvisational skill to K - 12
school-age students in their native educational environment.
Students will spend the first six weeks of the course on the
Wabash campus learning, first, how to improvise with the blues
and, second, how to teach this skill to younger students. Wabash
students will be divided up into groups of 2 - 3 who will then be
placed in a classroom corresponding with their age-level
interests. The second half of the course will then be spent in
an area K - 12 music classroom, teaching school-age students
these improvisational skills. Wabash students will receive
specific pedagogical methods appropriate for the age group in
which they will be working, and the instructor will be able to
observe their in-classroom teaching several times throughout the
second half of the semester. While the ability to read music is
not a requirement for this class, the willingness to sing for
others (for teaching and demonstration) is a necessity.

PHI-249-01 19th Cent. European Philosophy |
Trott A |
M W F
02:10PM - 03:00PM |
This course approaches 19th-century European philosophy through
the treatment of four major figures whose influence continues to
be felt: Hegel, Marx, Kierkegaard, and Nietzsche. Responding to
Hegel's precedent, the three later thinkers must grapple with the
relationship between systematic knowledge and history. Hegel
produces a unified system of philosophy by articulating the
history of knowledge in a way that denies the division of
knowledge into various sub-disciplines (logic, ethics,
metaphysics, epistemology, politics, and so forth). This insight
into the history of knowledge guides the three other thinkers who
follow even as they find various positions from which to
criticize Hegel. Marx wants a more materialist philosophy, and so
turns Hegel's dialectic on its head. Kierkegaard begins to expose
the cracks in the project of universal systematic thinking,
showing its limits by affirming the singularity of religious
experience. Nietzsche makes the system break by developing a
critique of metaphysics, which is to say, of any philosophical
thinking purporting to operate outside of history, context, and
particular motivations. So, the course begins by laying out a
system of metaphysics and ends by considering why that very
project might be a problem. The course will provide historical
context that enriches students' understanding of existentialism
and continental philosophy, but it presupposes no philosophical
background.

The economic impact of the COVID pandemic, including the
evictions it caused, reflects a harsh reality: tens of millions
of Americans still live in poverty although this is the richest
nation on earth. What should government do about this? From the
New Deal to the present, have our federal, state and local
poverty initiatives done more harm or good? Have government
benefits lifted citizens out of poverty or created dependency
that traps them in poverty? Has government integrated citizens or
continued to segregate them based upon race or wealth? Or should
the focus instead be on our courts? Do they extend equal justice
to the poor, or do they favor landlords and others with whom the
poor do business? This is a critical time to ask these
questions. Even before the pandemic struck, America had one of
the highest levels of economic inequality and one of the lowest
levels of economic mobility in its own history and among other
industrialized nations. In addition, while the poor are
participating less in politics, wealthy Americans are
participating and funding politics more and more. Given the
importance and difficulty of these issues, we will consider a
wide variety of views including those of liberals, conservatives,
and libertarians. We will ground our study not only in history
but also in the present, lived experience of the urban poor as
reported in Matthew Desmond's Evicted and the rural poor as
reported in JD Vance's Hillbilly Elegy.

This course examines the role of protest as a means of political
expression that has been used by a variety of political actors
seeking to change the policies and political practices of the
United States throughout its history. The focus will be on two
overarching questions: Why has protest been such a fixture of
American politics? And to what extent does it actually influence
public policy outcomes? In addition to considering frameworks for
making sense of the role of protest in the development of US
public policy in general, we'll take a close look at the
experiences of three specific protest movements: the
mid-twentieth-century Civil Rights Movement; the Tea Party, and
the contemporary Environmental Justice Movement. Students will
also have the opportunity to research the policy impact of a
US-based protest initiative of their choosing.

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, political, and philosophical questions. Focused
especially on concepts of autonomy and dependency, we will
explore asking: When does life begin? How do we define death?
What life is worth living, who decides, and how? What does it
mean to suffer from disease and disability? Should we mandate
vaccination for disease? Should we use new technologies for human
enhancement? What is a good relationship between a patient and
caregivers? What is informed consent and how do we decide who is
competent to give it? What is trauma-informed care?
Gender-affirming care? Who should take care of our elders and how
should we approach end-of-life care? What is our responsibility
for providing a just distribution of health-care resources in our
communities, both local and global? We'll consider these
questions and more in a seminar discussion format.
Background in biology suggested. Interested students who don't
satisfy the prerequisites should contact the instructor.

Can we accommodate the religious practices of every American in
our schools, workplaces, and other institutions? If not, can we

soft-minded romantics? What exactly are symbols? Myths? What do
they do? Are they socially constructed? Archetypal? Something
else? How important are they for religion? Can you have a
religion that's "demythologized"? Should you? These are some of
the questions that we'll tackle in this half-course. We'll read
selections from, among others, Mircea Eliade and Wendy Doniger,
as well as their critics. Using film and other media, we'll also

CLA-212-01=REL-290-03
The Greeks were a polytheistic society: they worshipped numerous
gods. Moreover, they did so in a variety of modes and for a
multitude of reasons. Using ancient literature and archaeological
remains, we will consider the nature and function of the gods of
the Greek pantheon, as well as the sacred spaces, festivals,
dedications, and rituals through which the Greeks worshipped
their deities from the Bronze Age through the Hellenistic period
and the rise of Christianity. As we explore these topics, we will
situate religion within the changing social and historical
contexts of the ancient world. This entails analysis of the
relation between cults and the state, especially Athenian
democracy; the impact of deities and festivals on warfare, the
economy, athletics, and literature; and the role of refugees,
slaves, women, and other marginalized groups. The course is
discussion oriented; most class periods will be spent in
conversation about assigned readings. An intensive immersion
component rounds out the course: we will travel to Greece from
May 7-17, 2023.

REL-373-01 Anti-Racist Christian Theology |
Nelson D |

REL-373-01=BLS-300-01
"Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence
encourages the tormentor, never the tormented. Sometimes we must
interfere." -- Elie Wiesel, Holocaust survivor. The world is
finally understanding that there can be no teaching about race
that is not also teaching against racism. This course will
compare the Black experience in the United States, and
theological reflection thereon, with Black experience under the
brutal Apartheid regime in South Africa. We begin by examining
first-person narratives from Black and White Americans on the
harms done by racism. We will do the same with Black (Bantu),
White and the so-called "Cape-Coloured" South Africans. Then we
will look at histories told about how the parallel systems of
oppression were conceived, installed and how they functioned. The
last half of the class explores arguments made by James Cone on
how the cross of Jesus Christ looks like (and unlike) a lynching
tree; by South African Allan Boesak on the dangerous but
tantalizing specter of "hope"; and by the womanist theologian
Kelly Brown Douglas on theology in the wake of the killing of
teenager Trayvon Martin.

RHE-370-01 US Presidential Rhetoric |
Drury J |
M W F
10:00AM - 10:50AM |
The U.S. president has become, by many estimates, the most
powerful person in the world. This course considers how such
power in contemporary mediated society is connected to the
president's use of rhetoric. Specifically, students will explore
how contemporary presidents use rhetoric to govern, with
particular attention to the relationship between presidents and
the American people. The course material will include
presidential rhetoric but also theoretical and rhetorical
criticism essays that explore the operations of that rhetoric.
This course focuses on the discourse of elected presidents who
speak in an official capacity, not on election campaigns or
fictional portrayals of U.S. presidents. Students should expect
this to be a seminar course, meaning that our class sessions will
be largely student-driven discussion from assigned material. By
taking this course, students will cultivate a more nuanced
understanding of the operations of U.S. presidential rhetoric,
culminating in a research project that analyzes a significant
historical instance of presidential rhetoric.
