Course Description: |

This course is designed to help students develop a
critical understanding of how moving images produce
meaning. The course looks at the language of moving
pictures, which, unlike the linear sequence of
speech and the written word, employs simultaneity of
sensory perception. Through an intense study of
films, this course explores the nature of moving
images and how they are organized to create a whole.
In order to best accomplish this task, the course
will use various methods and theoretical approaches:
asesthetic, formal, industrial, technical, social,
historical, and political. By examing sounds and
images, "The Art of the Moving Image" will explore
how motion pictures tell stories that resonate in
the culture. Prerequisites: Completion of, or
concurrent enrollment in, EN101; or with permission
of the instructor.

Course Description: |
|
An advanced course focusing on an ethical,
epistemological, or metaphysical
issue of interest. Since the content of the course
will vary, students may
repeat the course with the consent of the
instructor.
This course explores the devotional writings of
Soren Kierkegaard, renowned Danish
philosopher, existentialist, literary figure, social
critic, and religious
writer. These moving works were written with the
expressed intention of the
moral and spiritual edification ("uplifting") of his
reader. They present
major themes of his thought with a prayerful
attitude and within the
framework of scriptural and theological meditation.
Yet they also retain
his subtle humor, profound sense of irony, and
propensity to "wound from
behind." Thus, our careful study of these works will
not only introduce
many of Kierkegaard's important and widely
influential philosophical themes,
but also pose deep spiritual challenges, providing
an opportunity for
encouragement and edification in the quest for an
authentic Christian
existence.
