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).
