TSD 8013 - Self and Other

Institution:

California Institute of Integral Studies

Subject:

Description:

In this course, learners observe their own feeling toward "other" while exploring the Western religious, philosophical, and psychologicalliterature on the wholly other and its relationship to the West's ontological and epistemological beliefs. To provoke awareness, literature from a tradition other than Western that discusses its relationship with the extra-ordinary is also engaged. With insight, learners write about how the prevailing culture's relationship to other (what is unknown) informs their own feeling about and relationship to strangeness.
