The course will be run as a freshman seminar. This means that rather than my lecturing all the time students should read the material for the day and come prepared to discuss the readings. Each class will revolve around one or two major questions that will be given out before class and which will allow you to think about, organize, and analyze the readings. To help facilitate discussion, students will from time to time prepare no more than a one-page analysis of the readings. These papers will be around five pages each.
All examinations are essays.
