Course Description:
Using a seminar format, this course will introduce students, via the close reading of relevant texts and visits to the museums and cultural institutions of Vienna, to the breadth and complexity of Austrian culture, thought, and politics. The seminar will be structured into the following sections that engage the city of Vienna, the Hapsburg legacy, and Austria in general: philosophy; psychoanalysis; cultural and art history; literature; and politics (with emphases on contemporary political questions such as human rights, immigration, multiculturalism, and racism). The seminar will be conducted in English. |
