ITAL-1300 (3) La Dolce Vita: Why the Humanities Matter, Italian Style

Introduces students to a critical appraisal of the Humanities in their world. Because the Humanities were rediscovered in the late Middle Ages in Italy, the course explores the Humanities from an Italian-centered perspective, though it broadens the scope of its analysis to make this perspective relevant for students who come from a variety of cultures and backgrounds. Approved for arts and sciences core curriculum: ideals and values.
