Music is everywhere around us-entangled with (and a part of) the many noises we experience. And yet we tend to think of music as distinct from other sounds, isolating it in our minds even when we can't with our ears. In this course, we will question that isolation, and examine music as an aspect of its greater environment - natural, social, and technological-rather than apart from it.

Common sense confirms the reality of evil. Though the term "evil" is part of our ordinary language and experience, what do we really mean when we use the word to describe a person, an action, or an historical event? Why does the word pack an emotional punch that other terms-immoral, wicked, cruel, unjust-do not? The course examines several important modern philosophical, theological and literary texts on the problem of evil.

This course examines the problem of criminality from a variety of disciplinary perspectives, focusing especially on the representation of crime in fiction and film. Beginning with nineteenth-century anthropological debates on the origins of criminality, the course proceeds to consider the ominous figure of the criminal in Victorian detective fiction, a twentieth-century American novel, and contemporary serial killer films, as well as the historical and disciplinary contexts that give such representations their cultural power.

In this writing seminar, we investigate the work of remembering and interpreting the African-American civil rights movement of the mid-twentieth century. We focus on the meaning and use of nonviolent protest as well as the relative importance of the federal government and grassroots activism. As we investigate these topics, we consider the kinds of evidence scholars draw on to construct their interpretations, including speeches by prominent leaders, newspaper accounts, oral histories, memoirs, and government documents.
