We will focus on communications, information regime, and law in the construction of identities and publics.

45206	Lecture-Discussion	RTT	3:00PM -5:50PM	T	1022 Foreign Languages Building	Tierney, R	Part of Term: 1 Date Range: 01/18/22-05/04/22 Section Info: In this course, we look at the ways that Japanese have grappled with sickness and death throughout history by examining works of literature (fiction, diaries, plays, and poetry), religious and philosophical texts, visual arts and film. While we will consider changing conceptions of the human body and different theories of the causes of disease, we will focus on how people have faced and written about suffering and loss throughout the ages and the role that medicine has played in assuaging their pain. This course offers students an introduction to a critical theme in literature and visual culture and to the field of medical humanities. It develops skills in close reading of texts and in the ability to analyze and to communicate complex ideas clearly and persuasively in discussion and in writing.
