CSCH 3013: Social Theory Through The Arts (3 cr.)

Social theorists and artists both attempt to understand the social world; they just use different means. In this seminar, we will trace a historical path from the Industrial Revolution to today, using social theory and art to understand the social world. We will conduct a survey of major schools of social thought from classical theorists of the mid-19th century to postmodern theorists of today, viewing the world and major social events through the eyes of social theorists and artists (including musicians, poets, novelists, filmmakers, and painters).
