AI 362 - Literature And Film

Institution:

DePaul University

Subject:

Description:

Literature and film provide rich and varied examples of individual and societal change. Creative and reflective writing are keys to deeper understanding. This course focuses on the processes of thoughtful reading, viewing, discussing, and writing about selected examples of literature and film. We will use selected media and writing exercises as subjects for critical analysis and as springboards into exploration of class members' own lives and cultures. Drawing from diverse sources, we will look at ways in which the arts reflect issues of identity during times of personal and cultural transformation. Through small and large group discussion, reflective learning journals, papers, and presentations, students will respond both analytically and personally to the visual and written media presented as well as to their own writing samples. Competences: H-3-B, A-2-A, A-1-D, H-3-C. Faculty: Susan McGury
