HUMN-241 Utopia: Good Place Or No Place?

This course is an exploration of the concept, representation, and reality of utopia. Utopia means both 'no place' and 'good place,' and encompasses thousands of years of imagined places and societies and the ideas behind them. Students will survey the breadth of utopian work through literature, visual arts, architecture, and historical and contemporary examples. Further study in subtopics within the genre will allow students to individually pursue their particular interests in utopias more deeply.
