Johnson, L Johnson, L	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 08/24/20-12/09/20 Section Title: Freud-Nietzsche-Kafka Section Info: GER 496 Freud - Nietzsche - Kafka Meets with CWL 496 and PHIL 411 We explore hope and redemption, self and community, and art and life in texts by Freud, Nietzsche, and Kafka. We examine the ways in which psychoanalysis, philosophy, and literature intersect. What are these thinkers' messages for us today? We also consider several related films. At the end of the semester, you will 1) have a rich understanding of how different discourses form our experience of the world at the most fundamental level; 2) understand the essential vocabulary of psychoanalysis; and 3) be able to articulate the significance of philosophy for the arts. Open to undergraduate and graduate students on all levels. Same as CWL 496 and PHIL 411. Readings and discussions in English. No prerequisites. Graduate students may earn four credits.
