e Through the analysis, synthesis and evaluation of challenging primary texts and their contexts, students are introduced to core humanities concepts. This theme-based course, the first of a two-course sequence, presents texts across cultures, histories and disciplines. Students investigate the nature of the individual in human society through the examination of psychological, social and political texts in dialogue with examples from art and literature.
f In the second course of a two-course sequence, students continue to work with texts across cultures, histories and disciplines. Students extend their investigation of human society to the cosmos, and move from in-depth textual analysis to broader considerations of scientific discourse, philosophy and ethical understanding.
** Available only for Temple University students.
