FINE-101 Humanities Through the Arts

In this course, the humanities are approached through an interdisciplinary study of nine major arts: film, theatre, music, dance, painting, sculpture, photography, architecture, and art in literature. Each of these arts is considered from the perspectives of the meaning and form expressed as well as criticism or critical evaluation. As a study of the creative process a broad range of methods in the various arts will be explored through diverse presentations by guest lecturers, professionals in the arts. The challenge to the student in this course is to develop perceptual awareness and aesthetic sensitivity as well as a foundation for a life-long relationship with the arts regardless of his/her major field of study.
