| H95.1284 - TOPICS IN RECORDED MUSIC BOB MARLEY & POST COL MUSIC Show Description | ||||||||
| One of the most important and charismatic champions of human freedoms in the 1970s, Bob Marley emerged from humble beginnings and an early life of austere poverty in his native Jamaica to bring reggae music to international popularity. A rebellious visionary who was unabashedly invested in Rastafari religion, Marley and his group the Wailers became known the world over for songs of universal love and Biblical prophecy, including "No Woman, No Cry," "Jammin'," and others. Although Marley died of cancer in 1981, the singer/songwriter left behind a legacy of socially conscious work that continues to remain popular with audiences worldwide. This unique course charts the life and art of Bob Marley, focusing on his engagement with Africa; and the social/spiritual as well as commercial aspects of his involvement with the UK. The Wailers story represents the arc of Jamaican music -- and with it the evolution of a post-colonial generation's identity. Students will receive a thorough grounding in the roots of Jamaican music: slavery and colonialism, the music of Independence; as well as the Wailers and Marley's own artistic progress. Students will ultimately write a research paper on Marley or a related subject or issue in recorded music. | ||||||||

| This course promotes dialogue and collaboration through the arts, giving students the tools of how to transform Chilean literature into a dramatic form. The course takes place in Chile for direct experience with one of the world's most socially committed theatre cultures. Chile's strong literary tradition, poetic vision and vibrant post NAFTA culture has burst into film and stage performances over the last two decades. The "Teatro a Mil" (Theatre for the Thousands) festival in Santiago every January is one of the largest international festivals in the hemisphere and will provide the basis for experiencing Chile's rich populist theatre as well as some of the world's most physical, visual, visceral and intensely political theatre works. The studio work seeks to explore the body as an instrument that is capable of communicating ideas and emotions above and beyond using words or gestures. Class work will draw upon the body as a whole to interpret and express intent. This physical workshop incorporates different kinds of movements and investigates the use of space, rhythms, dimensions, speed, and breath to embody different states and emotions. Students create and perform original interpretations of original Chilean text. On select evenings students attend festival events that combine class work and the influence of the Chilean culture and the festival. In the final days of the workshop students will present their created works in a series of short performances. | ||||||||

| K20.1545 - ON FREUD'S COUCH: PSYCHOANALYSIS NARRATIVE Show Description | ||||||||
| In this course we will read closely and thoroughly one of Sigmund Freud's papers, Screen Memories, and two of his classic case histories: 'Fragment of an Analysis of Hysteria,' (Dora) and 'From the History of an Infantile Neurosis,' (the Wolfman). In general, we will focus on how the psychoanalytic method takes narrative seriously that is, at its word, or literally at the same time as it recognizes that whatever is articulated may be in a negative or canted (in other words, encoded) relation to what it means. We will explore how time, memory and history signify in psychoanalytic frameworks, and ask what literature and poetics might share with psychoanalysis. Finally, we will debate the validity of what might be called Freud's reductionism in relation to drive theory and the sexual instincts. | ||||||||

| K20.1567 - THE ARABIAN NIGHTS Show Description | ||||||||
| The Arabian Nights (The Thousand and One Nights) is one of the most fascinating "world" texts. Since its translation to and publication in European languages it has captivated the imagination of countless writers and artists such as Poe, Joyce, Borges, Mahfouz, Rushdie, and Pasolini. It continues to plays a disproportionate role in constructing and perpetuating an essentialized and imaginary East, populated by violent and hypersexual beings. The narratives of the Nights and the cultural archive they have spawned have had a fascinating influence on literary and artistic production, popular culture and political imagination. The course introduces students to this important world masterpiece and the debates surrounding it. We will start out by briefly tracing the genealogy of this collectively authored and anonymous text, its collection and versions and the cultural context of its translation and popularity in the west. We will then explore the literary structure and narrative strategies and dynamics of the Nights, read some of its most famous cycles and discuss how they have been read from a variety of perspectives, focusing primarily gender and sexuality, power and politics, and otherness and boundaries. In the last part of the course we will read some of the modern literary works inspired by the Nights (Borges, Mahfouz, and Rushdie) and will watch how the Nights fared in adaptations in Hollywood, Bollywood, and elsewhere and will end with a film by the Italian director Pasolini. All readings will be in English. In addition to the Nights, readings may include Said, Mahfouz, Borges, Rushdie and others. | ||||||||

| K40.1019 - HIS ADVICE TO PLAYERS: SHAKESPEARE IN PERFORM. Show Description | ||||||||
| Speak the speech, I pray you, as I pronounced it to you, trippingly on the tongue. But if you mouth it, as many of our players do, I had as lief the town crier spoke my lines. Hamlet, (III.ii) Taking our cue from Shakespeare himself, this course will introduce students to methods of approaching the text from an actor's perspective. We will investigate several interpretive techniques that help the performer make the connections between the text, mind, and body. Special focus will be given to the development of a strong vocal instrument and bold interpretive choices that embrace the muscularity of the language. We will explore the structure of the language and how the structure helps the performer make sense of the complexities within the text as well as specific choices related to character and action. The course will also feature a screening component where we examine the range of interpretation of the plays as demonstrated in the work of actors and directors by viewing contrasting versions of the same scene from video and film. Students will work on speeches and scenes from the canon and present their work in class. Students will also keep a journal and attend performances of a Shakespearean play in New York City. | ||||||||

| K55.9750 - ISTANBUL: MAPPING THE PAST IN THE PRESENT Show Description | ||||||||
| From its early centuries as a Greek colony and Roman center, to its unique role as the imperial capital of both the Byzantine and the Ottoman Empires, to its latest distinction as a European Cultural Capital of 2010, Istanbul's vaunted history spans over two and a half millennia. The city has been the site of dramatic shifts in global power, politics, and culture. Even now, its very form which preserves, in its oldest parts, monuments from the ancient, Byzantine, and Ottoman pasts alongside one another commemorates the varied traditions that have contributed to its rich history. In this course, the city itself will serve as the foundation for our investigation of the ways in which Istanbul's pasts have been physically memorialized, narrated, and incorporated into the urban landscape. We will consider this landscape from a horizontal perspective by first mapping existing monuments in relationship to one another and considering the impact of the past on the current experiences of the city's space. We will then map the city from a vertical perspective, addressing what is preserved, reused, or destroyed at pivotal historical moments, and exploring how the physical space at that moment reflects the changing identity of the city. The following monuments and sites in Istanbul's Old City will serve as the center of our discussion: the Roman Hippodrome and Cisterns, the Hagia Sophia, the Suleymaniye Mosque, the Sultan Ahment Mosque, Topkapi Palace. We will also visit the neighborhoods in the New City that provide a contrast to such sites. These may include: Beyoglu, Galata, Kuzguncuk, and Kadikoy. | ||||||||

| P11.0040 - GENOCIDE MODERN ERA Show Description | ||||||||
| In the aftermath of the Holocaust, the world community vowed 'never again' to allow such atrocities. Yet genocide remains a tragic part of the human experience. Its persistence raises urgent questions: Is genocide preventable? Is it an inescapable aspect of human nature, or the weapon of the grossly-deviant vicious? Can policymakers detect early signs of genocide and prevent it from occurring? Or is punishment after the act of genocide the only viable instrument of international policy? This course will explore these and other questions by examining genocide in an historic and legal context. Proposed policy solutions will be evaluated through a focus on such case studies as Armenia, Ukraine, Cambodia, and the ongoing genocide in Darfur. | ||||||||

| T12.1000 - THE DIGITAL MEMOIR Show Description | ||||||||
| If you are like most students everyday you use some form of digital technology to record and document some aspect of your life. Maybe you post a picture of yourself at a party on Facebook or you enter the due date of an assignment in iCal on your iPhone. Of course, these instances are simply ways to share events and remember deadlines -- or are they? How can we shape the digital detritus of our lives into something more artful and thoughtful? How can we sharpen our critical thinking skills about these everyday tools in order to create something new? This course will ask students to develop, design and produce a new form of written and visual media. We will first look at important textual memoirs as a basis for beginning our conversation and quickly turn to the field of sensory and visual ethnography as a framework for understanding trans-disciplinary methodology. This course will also introduce students to the aesthetics of visual design through daily in-class visual thinkin g exercises and through production tutorials and workshops where students will learn to work with the CreativeSuite design tools including 2-D design with Photoshop and digital film editing with FinalCut. At the end of the course students will have finished a photography portfolio, a short film and a series of small writing projects that reflect an understanding of new form memoir. | ||||||||

| V41.0240 - AMERICAN SHORT STORY Show Description | ||||||||
| This course explores major figures in American writing of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and addresses a variety of questions about the form of short fiction. By "form" I mean all of those characteristics of the created tale that influence our reading: plot, character, description, and style. But we shouldn't forget that "form" also has a material component. Short stories could be published in magazines, newspapers or hardbound collections. What do these material forces mean for how the stories were originally read? How does the way we encounter these stories now change our view of them? Authors studied include Poe, Hawthorne, Stephen Crane, Henry James, Louisa May Alcott, and Paul Lawrence Dunbar, among others. Periodicals will include The New Yorker, Harper's, Blackwood's, and Collier's Magazine. We will end the course with stories chosen by students from Best American Short Fiction 2010. This course requires full student participation, including short writing ass ignments active discussion and a final archival presentation exploring the original publication of a short story selected by the student. Students will be expected to have completed a reading assignment the first day. | ||||||||

| V43.0850 - TOPICS: ITALIAN & SPANISH BAROQUE ART IN NY COLLECTIONS Show Description | ||||||||
| This intensive course surveys painting, sculpture and the decorative arts in Italy and Spain in the 17th century, when shifting and expanding social, political, and religious landscapes impacted the visual arts and the Catholic Church turned to the arts as powerful tools of persuasion. While the bold forms and engaging theatricality of baroque style characterize many examples, artists also produced intensely perceived portraits and starkly realistic compositions that reflected a keen and unflinching view of nature. Works by masters such as Caravaggio, Bernini, Velazquez, and Ribera will be explored in class lectures and in visits to New York collections, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Frick Collection, allowing the close study of significant artworks. | ||||||||

| V43.0850 - TOPICS: CONTEMPORARY ART IN NEW YORK Show Description | ||||||||
| The tendency of modern art toward reduction and abstraction came to an end around 1970, as traditional painting and sculpture largely (though not entirely) disappeared. The defining feature of contemporary art is that it is art made after "the end of art." This course begins in 1970 and extends to the present, examining the possibilities that have proliferated in the absence, or splintering, of a single dominant form of art-making. We will address the importance of newer media (photography, film, video, installation, performance, digital art) and the ongoing tension between object-based and conceptual practices. Topics include postmodernism, appropriation, institutional critique, commodities and the market, identity politics, the AIDS crisis, the so-called culture wars, and globalization. The course will include lectures and discussions of reading assignments, as well as site visits to galleries and museums around New York City. | ||||||||

| This course is designed to take advantage of New York's dynamic music community. There are in-class presentations by local musicians and scholars, and students regularly attend performances throughout the city. The focus is on the everyday practices of musical life in New York City by both performers and listeners in a number of the City's musical constituencies: immigrant communities; amateur and professional music-makers; and popular, classical, and avant-garde scenes. Examination of these processes of music-making will be enhanced by a look at the histories of these different kinds of music-making. There will also be a historical discussion of the vibrant musical life of New York in the 19th and early 20th centuries, which will contribute to an understanding of why New York is seen, and sees itself, as a musical city | ||||||||

| This course is based on the premise that most, if not all, forms of popular music indigenous to American soil has been linked to African tradition and the experiences of African-Americans. The course will examine how the earliest musical forms remained largely inaccessible to whites, but over time mixed with European musical elements became the backbone to American popular entertainment. Hip Hop music is the continuation of that tradition in that it began as a genre exclusive to African Americans and then became a part of American Pop music. | ||||||||

| The contemporary world is facing a great challenge responding to degradation and depletion of the natural environment, and creating a sustainable way of life. Developing solutions to this challenge vitally depends on transforming human thought and behavior. This course will introduce students to key theories and concepts in social, environmental, and conservation psychology and will examine how these theories are used to understand the relationship between human beings and the natural environment. Using an integrative approach, we will take into consideration both individual and social factors that give rise to this complex relationship. At the individual level, the course will examine the role of cognitive processes, including formation of beliefs, attitudes, and intentions and their connection to behavior, as well as personality differences, emotional processes, and morality. At the social level, we will explore the role of social systems and ideologies, group identities, and justice concerns, and the dynamics of social change. The class will use materials drawn from textbooks, empirical research articles, printed media, and film, and will be supplemented by guest lectures and a field trip, which will provide exposure to an initiative designed to address the environmental challenge | ||||||||

| J53.0155 - POLITICS IN MODERN EUROPE Show Description | ||||||||
| This course explores the politics of the EU, of central and eastern Europe, and of western Europe. With regard to the EU, classical governance issues of popular representation and accountable elite decision-making are both sharply drawn and the subject of explicit agreements between states. These same issues were explicitly confronted in the recent past by those involved in democratization and democratic consolidation central and eastern Europe. Western Europe is the intellectual "home" to many of the classical models of popular representation and accountable elite decision-making yet all countries, and especially smaller countries, are now forced to adapt these models in a setting where the traditional notion of the "stand alone" nation state is becoming ever less relevant. | ||||||||

| This seminar will investigate the state's power to punish.

We will closely read and analyze cases from the Supreme Court of the United States in light of the fundamental purposes of punishment, and we will consider how the American approach compares with penal practices in other nations and regions. Part of the seminar will take place outside the classroom and inside criminal justice institutions in New York.

| J75.0115 - NEW YORK AND MODERNITY Show Description | ||||||||
| Modernism was a broad movement in literature, arts, music and architecture that flourished first in Europe and then the United States between from the turn into the twentieth century until just after the Second World War. This course will examine the ways in which New Yorkers reshaped European modernism and created a distinctive legacy that marks the city to this day. We will explore the reciprocal relationship between modernism and the city, investigating how modernism was shaped by urban experience and how, in turn, modernism helped to mold our conception of the modern city. We will investigate the parallels and contrasts among a variety of forms including literature, film, art, music, and architecture, stressing the uneven developments of the period, with special attention paid to the tension between highbrow and lowbrow forms. Coursework will be supplemented with film showings and outings that will include concerts, plays, museum trips, and walking tours. One of the goals of the course will be to see our investigation of New York’s relationship to modernism as a case study in the relationship between urban culture and modernity more generally. Students will develop a set of conceptual tools that will enable them to analyze modern urban life not only in New York but in other cities around the globe, from London to Abu Dhabi to Shanghai. | ||||||||
