Pathos, Logos, and Ethics: Reading and Writing Across the Humanities

Pathos, Logos, and Ethos: Reading and Writing Across the Humanities is a reading and writing course that will introduce students to research and writing for college, best practices for academic achievement, interaction with academic disciplines, and reading for comprehension, recall, Seminar, and writing. This course will feature select academic disciplines as lenses to view particular threads of human activities to tell the story of how we have evolved, migrated, warred, created human cultures, made art & music, governed ourselves, and invented things. This course will engage the story of human history as told through the humanities, focusing on the colonial project as it changed the fabric of North America. By reviewing the foundations of American Democracy & Classical Liberalism, as well as the intertwined history of the Indigenous Americas, we will approach foundational concepts in Indigenous Humanities. All levels. 4 credits. Online (has synchronous and asynchronous components). Required class meetings Mondays 6-9:30 via zoom.
