LTWR 340 - The Monstrous, the Grotesque, and the Occult

Units: 3
Surveys discourses of the monstrous - from psychological theories of the grotesque to ancient folklore about the occult to postmodern ghost stories like the X-Files-which try to explain the incomprehensibility of our world. Examination of various texts will reveal how culture has asked, and answered, such questions as who we are and how we’ve come to be ourselves. Stresses critical thinking, reading, and writing as well as cooperative, interactive, and technological learning.

Satisfies GE area: CC
