HONR 105 - Honors:Aesthetics in Context Art Impulse
Fulfills CORE.105 requirement
This course examines a variety of masterworks and artists from the western traditions of art, dance, music, and theater. The course situates art in historical perspective, emphasizes Classicism, Romanticism, Modernism, and relates them to contemporary modes of expression. Works of art will be presented in context, so the impact of historical circumstance and cultural expectation on the creative artist will be apparent. Students will respond through oral and written analysis to masterworks studied in class and to works experienced at outside performances. While all sections of the course will include historic masterworks from the fields of art, theater, dance, and music, specific content of individual sections will reflect the interests and expertise of the professor. Throughout the semester, we will examine a variety of artistic
works and ideas to explore the role, meaning, and implications of questions that have shaped the human experience: Who and I? What can I know? How should I act?
