HMT 411 - HUMANITIES

Institution:

Geneva College

Subject:

Humanities DCP

Description:

Students will explore the humanities as a manifestation of human responses to the Cultural Mandate- to "rule over the earth and subdue it". The humanities reflect the cultural values of the culture from which they spring, therefore students will be equipped with the theological and philosophical categories needed to properly discern the truth (and untruth) of the cultural messages embedded in the humanities. On the one hand, students will be equipped to appreciate the common grace truth embedded in the humanities, but on the other hand, students will be equipped with the biblical categories of antithesis needed to discern where those truths fall short. At the end of the course, students will be equipped to engage both aesthetic considerations and "truth considerations" in the humanities.
