ARTS 318 - Preserving Culture and Heritage: Past, Present, and Future

Full Course

Cultural heritage is the legacy of tangible heritage-monuments, sites and objects-and intangible heritage-oral traditions, performing arts, and traditional skills-that a culture inherits from the past, preserves in the present, and protects for the future. Today cultural heritage is threatened worldwide from wanton damage, theft, looting, and environmental impact. Any loss of one culture’s heritage is a loss to all humanity. This course will discuss, in a series of global case studies, the challenges faced in the 21st century to create management and preservation strategies in order to protect our cultural inheritance. The course includes field trips.
