Institution:

Lyndon State College (merged into Northern Vermont University)

Subject:

Description:

This course explores myth, folklore, and fairytales as manifestations and articulations of the cultures out of which they arise. The language and conceptual structures of these forms of cultural expression will be considered in terms of the ways in which the human imagination configures meaning and of the ways that "stories" articulate and reshape cultural beliefs, norms, and expectations. While the primary focus of the course will be classical mythology and the fairy and folk tales of the western tradition, we may also consider material from the African, Native American, and Asian traditions.Prerequisites & Notes The prerequisite is ENG 1052 or permission.
