IAS 10100 Lit-Art & Hum Exp 2
Core Humanities II is an interdisciplinary humanities-based writing course built on critical reading, thinking and writing skills. Students read theoretical essays by authors such as Charles Darwin, Thomas Kuhn, Georg Simmel, Friedrich Nietzsche, and Hannah Arendt, paired with social context writers such as Gabriel Garcia Marques, Flannery O'Connor and Michael Gold. Students will respond to these combinations by producing a text-based essay of at least 1250 words that includes proper citation of sources. This course will emphasize critical reading, writing and thinking skills as well as a number of more complex rhetorical approaches to the composition of text-based academic writing.
