The major in Humanities critically examines the culture, ideas, and values of earlier cultures, western and non-western, both in their original time periods and as they have been appropriated and transformed by later ages. In particular, the program seeks to develop a critical awareness of how the classical past has been utilized as a symbol or an ideal by modern cultures, including American, and how western culture has developed its own particular views about itself as being distinctly different from non-western cultures.
The major is especially recommended for students who have a broad interest in the liberal arts either for their own sake or as preparation for business and the professions. The Humanities program is unique in allowing students the opportunity to select a wide spectrum of courses from a multiplicity of different disciplines (history, literature, philosophy, religious studies, art history, music history).
The Humanities Major is a broad yet rigorous program that examines the ideas, values, and creative works of earlier cultures and their later influence, through multiple disciplines of the humanities (literature, history, art, philosophy, religion, music etc.). The cultural importance and continuity of mythology and literature has a central place in this curriculum, but for students who want to focus further on the study of myth and literature, across a range of cultures and periods, the Concentration in Comparative Mythology and Literature brings a special emphasis to their major, and adds a unique distinction to their degree. By taking a small number of additional key courses, students taking this concentration develop a deeper familiarity with the myths and literatures of different cultures, and important tools for understanding, interpreting, and comparing them.
