HUM 113 - Civilization III

Institution:

Columbus State Community College

Subject:

Description:

Civilization III is a survey of the triumphs and failures of modern culture, ideas and values from 1850 to the present. Emphasis is on the conflicts and contradictions between the prevailing spirit of Liberalism, Capitalism, Nationalism and Imperialism from the perspective of the European and non-European worlds, the crises of Western capitalism and democracy and the Fascist and Communist responses, and the major issues confronting world civilization at the turn of the 21st century. Students are exposed to the creative process by reading from primary works of literature and philosophy and critically reviewing works of art, music, theater and dance, both in and out of class. Classes meet three hours per week in small groups for lecture and discussion and in combined sections for two hours per week for group cultural experiences.
