This interdisciplinary Great Books Seminar focuses on questions that are central to the human condition. Individual course topics, such as “What is Justice,” What is Race,” What is Beauty,” examine the relationships between and among foundational texts from three distinct disciplines, Humanities, Social Science, Natural Science. The methodology of close textual reading and Socratic discussion is emphasized, including the shared responsibilities of an inquisitive, dialogue-centered learning community. Both professor and students will engage the texts through questioning and rigorous discussion.
