This course explores from an interdisciplinary perspective the history of the Catholic Church as it interacts with the secular world and is shaped by its dominant personalities and events. No other institution in history has survived, and flourished, for so long and in the face of so many challenges. This course will critically reflect upon the history of the Church, from its origins in the Apostolic Age to the modern period, as a series of cycles with a common pattern of creativity, achievement, and retreat. Students may expect to complete the course with an awareness and understanding of the major personalities and events, secular and ecclesial, that have shaped the life of the Church.

This course provides an investigation into the ways in which Catholicism is inherently social and ecclesial. Its specific focus is on the Christian engagement with the world. The course's framework will be taken from the analysis of society into three spheres of action (culture, politics, and economics) as described in Centesimus annus. We will examine the ways that Revelation, the sacramental life, and the teachings of the Church call Catholics to seek holiness and to witness to their faith in the world. Specific topics may include social and economic justice, politics and public policy, lay and religious apostolates, education, and marriage and family. Course materials may include resources from philosophy, theology, history, economics, and political science.

At the center of the Catholic vision are the two great works of divine love: creation and redemption. This course considers the implications of these divine works for a radical reconsideration of the world and the human person. Students will examine characteristic Catholic approaches to and emphases concerning creation, redemption and ecclesiology, and discuss how Catholic understandings of creation and redemption inform, respond to, and critique Catholic practices in various cultural settings. In addition, the course will compare and contrast contemporary Catholic cultural monuments with that produced in earlier eras, and compare and contrast Catholic Christianity with other forms of Christian and non-Christian belief and practices. In illustrating its themes, the course draws upon sources in art, literature, history, philosophy, and theology with special attention given to the intellectual, spiritual, and cultural consequences of Catholic doctrine.

This course examines the topics of sex, gender, and Catholicism at various points of intersection. Drawing on a variety of Catholic and non-Catholic historical, philosophical, and literary lenses on these topics, this course gives special attention to under-represented voices, as well as to the teachings, practices, and institutional reality of the Catholic Church. Readings may cover topics such as friendship, sexuality, priestly ordination, marriage, erotic desire, parenthood, and more. Readings offer an opportunity to examine preconceptions, stereotypes, and assumptions surrounding these topics. Attention is also given to the exercise of power (including institutional power, and power based on gender), both historically and in contemporary culture. This course aims to deepen, diversify, and inform students’ imaginations on these topics and their connection to diversity, inclusion, and social justice. Prerequiste: CATH 101.

This Course focuses on analyzing and understanding Classical epic poetry, the ancient presentation of heroic figures and heroic exploits, and recognizing the influence of epic/heroic literature on the modern storytelling device of film. While the genre of epic is central to the course, other genres (both literary and cinematic) which present he-roic figures, e.g., tragedy, history, comedy, action, fantasy, will also be explored. Analyzing the works read or viewed via writing and class discussion will constitute the primary course activities; students will engage in reading, viewing and writing outside of class, while class time will include some writing, viewing and discussion. In order to allow am-ple time for discussion and analysis, the majority of films in their entirety will be viewed outside of class. The course grade will be based substantially on written analysis (i.e., essays, papers) of the texts and films studied. ENGL 203 may also be substituted for this course.

This course examines the influence of culture on our own and others’ communication. Students will be introduced to different aspects and levels of culture, including basic principles and theories that explain cultural differences on the group level, and challenges in intercultural communication, such as stereotypes, ethnocentrism, conflicting ethical standards, and racial disparities. Through lectures, discussions and first-hand practice, students are expected to form global perspectives and become more competent in intercultural communication. Students are advised to take the course either during or after the sophomore year.

Get your ticket, merch, and concessions, because we'll be heading to the theater! This semester, we're going to experience family drama--well, read dramas that explore the various relationships inside and between families. We'll travel across the ocean (figuratively) to watch Shakespeare's Globe perform AS YOU LIKE IT. We will explore a classic play, Ibsen'sA DOLL'S HOUSE, rewritten by two modern authors, Lucas Hnath (A DOLL'S HOUSE, PART 2) and Heather Raffo (NOURA); the latter two plays have been performed recently at the Jungle and Guthrie Theater, so we will watch the scenes available from these local performances. Greek tragedy also obtains a modern rewrite in Sarah Ruhl's EURYDICE and August Wilson's FENCES. In our final play, Dominique Morisseau's PIPELINE, the threat of black juvenile incarceration meets the determination of a loving mother; Penumbra Theatre offered a stellar performance of this work. The writing load for this course is a minimum of 15 pages of formal revised writing. This course satisfies a WAC Writing Intensive requirement and an Integration in the Humanities requirement. Please note that ENGL 201 is non-repeatable; students wishing to take a second 200-level Texts in Conversation course will need to register for ENGL 202, 203, or 204. Prerequisite: ENGL 121 or 190.

Mariane Moore's definition of good poems as "Imaginary Gardens with real toads in them" suggests that the relationship between the imagined and the real is not only fundamental to literary works, but often a shifting balance. In this course, we'll read poetry, drama, fiction and critical work that features calculated departures from straightforward realism, and examine why and how literary writers have pressured realism toward the fantastical and the surreal. Texts for the course may include works such as Carmen Maria Machado’s THE BODY AND OTHER STORIES; Shakespeare's THE TEMPEST; Laura Kasischke's SPACE IN CHAINS; Katherine Dunn’s GEEK LOVE; Mary Shelley's FRANKENSTEIN; Matthea Harvey’s IF THE TABLOIDS ARE TRUE, WHO ARE YOU; Toni Morrison’s SULA; as well as selected shorter works from Margaret Atwood, John Keats, Shirley Jackson, Wallace Stevens, and John Barthelme among others. The writing load for this course is a minimum of 15 pages of formal revised writing. This course satisfies a WAC Writing Intensive requirement and an Integration in the Humanities requirement. Please note that ENGL 201 is non-repeatable; students wishing to take a second 200-level Texts in Conversation course will need to register for ENGL 202, 203, or 204. Prerequisite: ENGL 121 or 190.

This course will combine fiction and non-fiction texts that approach the idea of environment and environmental sustainability from a variety of Native American and Indigenous world views, with an emphasis on Minnesota Native nations. In addition to reading and writing about Native literature, this course will strive to connect students to Native American food and farming and the social-ecological systems in which the stories are embedded. If all goes as planned, we’ll be cooking some indigenous recipes and visiting Dream of Wild Health indigenous farming co-op. Texts that will likely make the reading list include Heid Erdrich’s cookbook ORIGINAL LOCAL: INDIGENOUS FOOD, STORIES, AND RECIPES FROM THE UPPER MIDWEST (and we may organize a visit and a cooking class by the author); BRAIDING SWEETGRASS, a non-fiction text by Robin Wall Kimmerer, a Potawatomi woman who is also a biology professor; and the novel SOLAR STORMS by Linda Hogan, a story about four generations of women working to save ancestral land from dam development. Other possible texts include poetry from Leslie Marmon Silko, Joy Harjo, and others; William Apess’s 1835 essay on the “…Unconstitutional Laws of Massachusetts Relative to the Mashpee Tribe”; and selections from Winona LaDuke’s ALL MY RELATIONS, David Treuer’s REZ LIFE, and Vine Deloria, Jr.’s GOD IS RED.

This course will examine literary texts which feature the connection between the world of business and American culture. Work has always been an integral part of American society, and individuals often identify themselves with the work that they do. Students will closely read a handful of texts--Willa Cather's A LOST LADY, Solomon Northup’s 12 YEARS A SLAVE, F. Scott Fitzgerald’s THE GREAT GATSBY, Mario Puzo’s THE GODFATHER, Arthur Miller’s DEATH OF A SALESMAN, and Colson Whitehead’s APEX HIDES THE HURT--to explore how the dominant cultural narratives behind common perceptions of American business (such as the American Dream and the self-made person) shift from the pre-Civil War era through the early twenty-first century. The writing load for this course is a minimum of 15 pages of formal revised writing. This course satisfies a WAC Writing Intensive requirement and an Integrations in the Humanities requirement. Please note that ENGL 202 is non-repeatable; students wishing to take a second 200-level Texts in Conversation course will need to register for ENGL 201, 203, or 204. Prerequisite: ENGL 121 or 190.

This course will combine fiction and non-fiction texts that approach the idea of environment and environmental sustainability from a variety of Native American and Indigenous world views, with an emphasis on Minnesota Native nations. In addition to reading and writing about Native literature, this course will strive to connect students to Native American food and farming and the social-ecological systems in which the stories are embedded. If all goes as planned, we’ll be cooking some indigenous recipes and visiting Dream of Wild Health indigenous farming co-op. Texts that will likely make the reading list include Heid Erdrich’s cookbook ORIGINAL LOCAL: INDIGENOUS FOOD, STORIES, AND RECIPES FROM THE UPPER MIDWEST (and we may organize a visit and a cooking class by the author); BRAIDING SWEETGRASS, a non-fiction text by Robin Wall Kimmerer, a Potawatomi woman who is also a biology professor; and the novel SOLAR STORMS by Linda Hogan, a story about four generations of women working to save ancestral land from dam development. Other possible texts include poetry from Leslie Marmon Silko, Joy Harjo, and others; William Apess’s 1835 essay on the “…Unconstitutional Laws of Massachusetts Relative to the Mashpee Tribe”; and selections from Winona LaDuke’s ALL MY RELATIONS, David Treuer’s REZ LIFE, and Vine Deloria, Jr.’s GOD IS RED.

In this course we will examine a body of work that traffics in such existential themes as freedom and responsibility, authenticity and bad faith, anguish and abandonment, identity and subjectivity, and choice and commitment. While some of our readings will reach beyond our own shores (Sartre, Beauvoir, Camus, Kafka, Nietzsche, Dostoevsky, and Kierkegaard), we will mostly focus on works by 20th-century American writers: Palahniuk's FIGHT CLUB, Krakauer's INTO THE WILD, O'Connor's A GOOD MAN IS HARD TO FIND, Baldwin's THE FIRE NEXT TIME, Salinger's The CATCHER IN THE RYE, McCarthy's NO COUNTRY FOR OLD MEN -- to name but a possible few. In the words of Zadie Smith, we're going to read a selection of very good books in this course, concentrating on whatever is most particular to them in the hope that this might help us understand whatever is most particular to us. The writing load for this course is a minimum of 15 pages of formal revised writing. This course satisfies a WAC Writing Intensive requirement and an Integrations in the Humanities requirement.

Drugs, alcohol, lies and deception. Why do some young adults wander down the wrong road? Robert Frost’s poem suggests that either road is “really about the same,” but is that truly the case? Young adults confront a wide variety of unique issues and challenges as they mature. The consequences of their self-destructive decisions often result in ruined lives. Possible texts may include: Selected works by Nathaniel Hawthorne and poetry by Robert Frost, EVERYTHING I NEVER TOLD YOU by Celeste Ng, ORDINARY GRACE by William Kent Krueger, A RIVER RUNS THROUGH IT by Norman Maclean, and SIX DEGREES OF SEPARATION by John Guare. The writing load for this course is a minimum of 15 pages of formal revised writing.

Where does the popular perception of America as the “New World” come from? How could slavery flourish in a land idealizing freedom? Why were immigrants so feared and reviled? Why did expansionism push out some and make millionaires of others? Such questions will be explored in a chronological framework through extensive readings from the beginnings of the American literary tradition to the turn of the twentieth century. Threaded throughout the literature are themes such as religious identity, political reform, race, slavery, war, gender, and industrialization. This course fulfills both the Historical Perspectives and the Early American Literature requirements in the English major, the Historical Perspectives requirement for English with a Creative Writing Emphasis students, a literature course for English with a Professional Writing Emphasis students, and a requirement for students in the English with a Secondary Education major. It also satisfies an Integrations in the Humanities requirement. Prerequisites: ENGL 121, 190, or ENGL 201-204.

What might it mean to speak of “the classical tradition?” What does that include and exclude? And how does it matter to us today? From the ancient Greek gods in their serenity to the howls of the damned in Dante’s vision of the afterlife, whether mythological or theological, the works to be studied engage us in the most fundamental questions about what it means to be human. Such questions will be explored in a chronological framework through extensive readings of representative texts of Western literature in translation from ancient Greece to the Renaissance, including some interactions of the European traditions with ancient or medieval Asian, Mesopotamian, or Middle Eastern literatures. Authors may include Homer, Aeschylus, Sappho, Virgil, Dante, Rumi, Marie de France, and Christine de Pizan. This course fulfills the Historical Perspectives requirement in the English major and the English with a Creative Writing Emphasis major, a literature requirement for students in the English with a Professional Writing Emphasis major, and a requirement for students in the English with a Secondary Education major.

At the start of her novel MAMA DAY, Gloria Naylor writes, "someone who didn't know how to ask wouldn't know how to listen." Audre Lorde, in "The Master's Tools Will Never Dismantle the Master's House," questions, "What does it mean when the tools of a racist patriarchy are used to examine the fruits of that same patriarchy? It means that only the most narrow perimeters of change are possible and allowable." Both writers call on their readers to approach African-American women's texts with humility, openness, and curiosity. They call upon readers to find new tools to dismantle racism, sexism, homophobia, and all the intersecting forms of racism that blight our lives. In this course, we will be "integrating" across communities and across time as we explore women's lived experience of the American racial and gender divide. We will be moving chronologically from the poetry of Gwendolyn Brooks during the Civil Rights era to the prose and poetry of Audre Lorde, where racial and second-wave feminist concerns intersect. We will study issues of black and mixed-race identity, questions of body image, and the painful realities of colorism in Toni Morrison's THE BLUEST EYE (1970), Gloria Naylor's MAMA DAY (1988), and Natasha Trethewey's MONUMENT (2018). The course will end with contemporary treatments of the economics, politics, and sociology of race intersecting with gender in Dominique Morisseau's THE DETROIT PROJECT and PIPELINE, Claudia Rankine's CITIZEN and THE WHITE CARD.

This course provides an in-depth exploration of a select group of texts or authors from British literature of the eighteenth century, the age of Englightenment and a time of exploration that launched industrialization, capitalism, the slave trade, imperialism, and the police force and prisons, as well as the vibrant new genres of the novel, biography, and the first comprehensive dictionary. Selected texts or authors (such as Behn, Defoe, Fielding, Pope, Haywood, and Austen) will be studied in terms of a particular historical, cultural, or other context, or in terms of a convergence with authors or texts from other literary traditions or intellectual disciplines. Examples might include bawdy dramas vs. elegant novels of manners, “secret histories” of disguise and mistaken identity, criminal biographies and moral philosophy, and how to choose a marriage partner. This course fulfills the Contexts and Convergences and an Early British Literature requirement in the English major and a literature requirement for students in the English with a Creative Writing and English with a Professional Writing Emphasis majors. In addition, it also satisfies an Integrations in the Humanities requirement. Prerequisite: ENGL 121, 190 or ENGL 201-204.

The sensation novel was one of the most popular -- and controversial -- literary genres of the Victorian era. Whereas in the early part of the century crime was viewed as a threat posed by the lower classes, by the 1860s, criminal behavior was seen as the dark secret hidden beneath the façade of the perfect upper-class home. In this course, we will read Victorian page-turners by Wilkie Collins and Mary Braddon, as well as riveting twentieth-first-century adaptations of the genre written by Kate Summerscale and Sarah Waters. We will also read examples of Victorian journalism that inspired and responded to the sensation novel craze of the 1860s. This course satisfies the Contexts and Convergences requirement for English majors and counts as a literature course for English with a Creative Writing emphasis and English with a Professional Writing emphasis students.

This course trains students in the use of a wide range of film theory and criticism as tools for interpreting film and media as texts, as narrative, as works of art, as historical artifacts, as political expression, as semiotic systems, as mediums of identity and social change, and more. Building on knowledge and skills learned in FILM 200 Introduction to Film, students will learn a range of compelling critical methods for the analysis of film and media, including many of the following: auteur theory; psychoanalysis; feminism, gender and masculinity studies; Marxism; cultural studies; queer theory; audience reception and star studies; postcolonialism; genre analysis; and race and ethnicity, among others. Film Theory and Criticism will help situate you as informed, critically engaged viewers of global film and media texts and practices. Each area of film criticism will be accompanied by a screening of a film or films that elucidate main points of the area of film theory that is the focus for that week. Through the combination of canonical theoretical approaches and more contemporary angles developed since the 1970s, this course will provide you with skills necessary to interpret films as collaborative art works, as technical artifacts, as sociocultural and ideological productions, and as products of a globalized media world. Prerequisite: Film 200 or instructor permission.

This course, team-taught by a historian and a literary scholar, focuses on the long struggle of African Americans for justice and equality in the U.S. Analyzing literary and historical texts, students in this course will learn about and engage in research on African American history and culture. Utilizing historical, literary, and cultural approaches, this interdisciplinary course will immerse students into an exploration of the African American experience from multiple perspectives using dual disciplinary frameworks. For example, students may study Richard Wright’s NATIVE SON, but would read the text within the historical and cultural framework of the Great Migration, connecting Wright’s text not just to other literary texts, but situating it within an historical and cultural context vital to the novel’s creation and essential for its interpretation. The writing load for this course is a minimum of 15 pages of formal revised writing. This course satisfies a WAC Writing Intensive requirement and an Integrations in the Humanities requirement.

This course introduces students to qualitative research theories, methods, and techniques focused on representing voices of women, people of color, people in poverty and others that are marginalized or excluded from dominant culture. Specifically, students will gain familiarity with the qualitative social science methods of interviews, ethnography, documentary research, and focus groups. Throughout the course, students will be guided through the process of designing and conducting their own unique research projects meanwhile learning from ongoing research with their instructors and partner organizations. In addition to training in data collection techniques, analysis, and varied epistemologies, the course thoroughly explores the ethics of research with marginalized communities and the ways in which research can and does relate to social change. Together, participants in this course will co-create a teaching/learning community wherein we all critically analyze and respectfully value each person’s individual and particular contributions as well as our diverse understandings of social reality and how we position ourselves in the multiple worlds in which we live and work.

Political philosophy and law are intimately connected to ethics, and to an underlying theory of the human person. Some say that political philosophy is an extension of ethics or morality; others hold that, without law, there is no morality. Which is it? Are human beings naturally political animals? From where does the authority to make law arise? What is the origin of property? What constitutes justice? What is the relation between a political system and the good of its individual citizens? What is this “common good” we keep hearing about? Are there better and worse forms of government? We will examine philosophical works on these topics from ancient to recent, with particular attention to the Catholic intellectual tradition. Prerequisite: PHIL 110, PHIL 115, or PHIL 197.

Many religions, including Christianity, ask people to have faith that God exists and has acted in human history. Yet it often seems more reasonable to doubt that religious claims are true. In this course, we will consider whether it can be reasonable to have faith in religious claims and how doubt can help a person come to a more mature faith. The course will be divided into two parts, each of which will address a source of religious doubt. In the first part, we will discuss the relation between faith, doubt, and science. In light of modern scientific findings (especially the theory of evolution), can it be reasonable to believe that God exists, created the world, and has intervened in history? In the second part, we will discuss the relation between faith, doubt, and suffering. In the face of widespread horrendous suffering and moral evil, can it be reasonable to believe that a good God exists and cares for human beings? Special attention will be paid to the suffering that results from the experience of finding the world to be ultimately meaningless. Prerequisite: PHIL 110, PHIL 115, or PHIL 197.

Many people today say they are “spiritual but not religious”, meaning that they reject organized religion, with its “dogmas” and doctrine of God as “an old man in the sky.” But the great religions of the world have engendered powerful philosophical theologies, offering sophisticated accounts of the ultimate, spiritual reality and of its relation to humans and to the world, developing these accounts in astonishingly rich ways. Some have argued that the ultimate reality must be personal i.e., must be a being who is able to act on purpose for reasons, and that a person need not be limited in any way. Some have argued that the ultimate reality must transcend personality, must be the ground of being which is not itself a being. Some have argued that the there can only be one uncreated being, while some have argued that the evil in the world requires that God, who is perfectly good and the creator of all good things, must be opposed by an uncreated spirit of evil which He will, nonetheless, defeat in the end. Some have argued that the ultimate good for humans must consist in loving union with a God of love and all other finite spirits, while others have held that it can only consist in a realization that one’s inner self is the very same as the Self of all, the Self which is Being-Consciousness-Bliss. Furthermore, the greatest philosophical theology humans have produced was not detached from religion or purported revelatory texts, but grew up, in an organic way, from a deep, and philosophically informed, meditation on them. This course explores Western and non-Western philosophical accounts of the nature of the ultimate reality and of the relation of humans to that reality and, by doing this, seeks to show that the currently popular distinction between “religion” and “spirituality” is based on nothing more than an ignorance of the profound, and varied, religious philosophies developed by thinkers who were adherents of the great world religions.

Drawing on insights from philosophy as well as research from cognitive science, psychology, and behavioral economics, this course will help you learn to reason better. Emphasis will be on probabilistic reasoning rather than on deductive logic (which is the focus in PHIL 220). We will discuss in detail: how to avoid common natural biases in thinking, how to attain intellectual habits that promote the attainment of truth, how to create a visual representation of the structure of an argument, what evidence is and how to update one’s beliefs on the basis of new evidence, how to assess the quality of an information source, how to engage in probabilistic reasoning when certainty is elusive, and how to make good decisions when operating in conditions of uncertainty and risk.

Special attention will be given to the main themes of the classical Christian views of faith/reason, grace/nature, God/creation in the theologies of such theologians as St. Thomas Aquinas and St. Bonaventure. Other themes that may be treated: the role of monasticism and mendicant life; medieval saints such as St. Francis of Assisi and Catherine of Siena, women's spirituality, mysticism, liturgical developments, religious art and architecture, and the interaction of Christians with Jews and Muslims.

Special attention will be given to the main themes of the classical Christian views of faith/reason, grace/nature, God/creation in the theologies of such theologians as St. Thomas Aquinas and St. Bonaventure. Other themes that may be treated: the role of monasticism and mendicant life; medieval saints such as St. Francis of Assisi and Catherine of Siena, women's spirituality, mysticism, liturgical developments, religious art and architecture, and the interaction of Christians with Jews and Muslims.

Theology courses numbered 221-229+300 are reserved for students on the new core curriculum. If this section of the class appears to have very few seats, it is because the rest of the seats in the classroom will be occupied by students in the equivalent course on the “old core.” This section is a theological investigation of changing relationships between Christianity and the political order, principally in religious terms as understood by Christians themselves but also from the vantage point of government. Emphasis in the first half of the course is on the foundational events of the New Testament and the early Christian era, and in the second half on Christianity's experience with secular and democratic modernity in America. The aim of the course is to measure the effect, in changing historical contexts, of persecution, establishment, and disestablishment, on a religion which professes both to be rooted in transcendent reality, and to have direct implications for life in this world. Primary readings from scripture, ancient and modern theology, speeches, sermons, Supreme Court decisions, and political, sociological and religious reflections on the American experiment with democracy and freedom of religion.
