Course description

This course examines the ways in which humanities traditions are embedded in particular cultural traditions. It has a particular interest on those traditions that challenge conceptions of the role, function, and aims of study of the Humanities, especially within the West. This includes a strong focus on the contribution that Indigenous peoples have made to critiquing and developing Humanities scholarship and providing alternative models of inquiry. It examines the conditions that lead to cross-cultural exchange.
