HJS 410 Reading Scholarship in Humanities and Justice
3 hours
This course introduces students to the scholarly approaches most frequently used in literature, history, and philosophy. Students will develop the important skill of critically reading scholarly prose and producing a synthesis of a variety of academic approaches to a specific question or topic. It provides students with an opportunity to interrogate disciplinary scholarship in an interdisciplinary manner: students will be asked to use approaches from all three disciplines to identify and critique the methods, strengths, and weaknesses within the disciplines and learn to produce a more complete scholarly synthesis than is possible from a single disciplinary perspective.
