HON 300AJ - Field Study: Read Deliberately

Institution:

Westminster College (Salt Lake City)

Subject:

Honors

Description:

"I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived." Henry David Thoreau. In these linked courses we will examine what it means to live deliberately. We will read works by authors who went to the woods, the desert, or the mountains to examine their lives and the world around them more carefully. And we will write of our own experiences in the natural world and in a small community living together. This is a field course co-listed with ENVI 301: Field Study-Write Deliberately. Students Need to enroll in both courses, unless they have permission of the instructor. We will be traveling to the Field Camp at Cat Ranch for two weeks of intensive reading, writing, and conversation.
