Although few would question that our contemporary world should be termed 鈥減ostmodern,鈥 among scholars, there is no consensus on the precise meaning of the term. Two crucial historical events arising from World War II, the birth of computers and the atom bomb, signal a precipitous break from the modern, and have radically transformed all facets of contemporary political, social and personal life. Yet while our global world and engagement has been generally embraced and integrated within our contemporary existence, often celebrating the 鈥渟ingularity鈥 of technology and everyday life in an age of 鈥渟piritual machines鈥 when 鈥渃omputers exceed human intelligence鈥 as Ray Kurzweil puts it, a decidedly dystopic imagination dominates the arts of films and literature. This course, through the exploration of fiction from the past half century, aims to explore the meaning, significance and implications of postmodern life and culture. Students will develop a critical awareness of postmodernity through lectures, class discussion, and student presentations on authors such as Jameson, Lyotard, Baudrillard, and others. Students will write short response essays and a creative response, give a presentation, and write a final formal essay. Time permitting, we will explore two films through a postmodern lens.

*Note: This course satisfies 色色啦 Essential Studies Level 2: Exploration and Discovery 鈥 Societies and Cultures Category.
This course explores a variety of philosophically interesting questions related to grief. We'll begin with the claim that grief is inextricably linked to the desire for the return of the dead. Does wanting what we know we cannot have (i.e. that the dead be alive) suggest that grief is, fundamentally, an irrational experience? And does this shed light on those who find themselves drawn in grief to places associated with a person who has died or who seem to hear, see, or otherwise sense the dead. We'll then consider grief alongside other so-called 'backward-looking' emotions. If grief is preoccupied with a past that we cannot change, how do we explain the passage of grief over time? Does its passage suggest that we no longer care for those who have died or is this an unavoidable natural process? Finally, we'll conclude with a discussion of bodily and temporal disturbances associated with grief. How does grief manifest in our bodies? How seriously, for example, can we take the comparison between the loss of a loved person and the loss of a limb? And how do we understand those who experience not only the loss of a loved person but the loss of any sense of a future ahead of them?
