Description:

An examination of personal identity and how it is imbedded in narrative. The course examines novels and non-fiction from a variety of sources to illustrate the formation of political identity.

Students will use one or more of the various forms - short stories, journal, diaries, - to reconstruct stories of personal identity that constitute part of a larger narrative about how citizens understand and communicate the complexities of emotion and ideas connected to politics and political experiences in one s life.
