FYSP 136 - Ways of Seeing, Ways of Knowing 4 HU, WRi
First Semester. Is seeing believing? Can you always believe your eyes? Why do hoaxes and frauds work? We’ll take up questions like these by exploring the literal and metaphoric perspectives we bring to narratives and other creative work and how such work projects or plays with perspective and “truth.” Our inquiry will be pursued through writing and the give-and-take of discussion as we examine prose narratives by O’Connor, Morrison, Kay, Fitzgerald and others, essays on identity and hoax, the graphic narrative Maus, The Wizard of Oz in its print and film forms, Orson Welles’s F for Fake, and selected works of visual art.
Prerequisites & Notes Enrollment Limit: 14.
