Course Goals and Objectives

To introduce students to major world cultures while immersing them in information and concepts and develooping their critical thinking skills, all of which are essential to the ability to appreciate, critique, and participate in world culture. The course is team-taught by professors from three different humanities disciplines (typically, art, music, and literature), working across disciplines to model the ways these expressions of human creativity coexist to create cultures. This interdisciplinary approach stresses the relationships among the arts throughout cultural history, and the ways they are both the expression and shaper of their societies. The course emphasizes synthesis, recognition of interrelationships among the arts, familiarity with important historical and cultural movements, critical thinking, creativity, concrete and abstract learning, and problem solving. The course covers the historical period from ancient times to the early seventeenth century, dealing with the cultures of India, ancient Greece and Rome, the Near East (or Middle East), and Europe (France, Italy, England).

Meetings, Grades, and Other Matters

World Humanities is a team-taught course, usually with three professors: one for literature, one for art, and one for music.

(a) The literature part meets Monday and Wednesday.  The music part meets one day a week (usually Monday, second hour), and the art part meets on the other day (usually Wednesday, second hour), with a ten-minute break between the lit and music, and between the lit and art. The additional hour on Friday is for  labs or additional class sessions.  (b) To pass the course, both parts -- literature, and art/music -- must be passed.  (c) The literature portion is worth 40%, the art 20%, music 20%, and interdisciplinary portion 20%.  (d) Attendance as per the college catalog: absence for ten percent of the overall course meeting hours for the semester, regardless of cause, may cause withdrawal.  (e) Bring the literature book to every class, since some whole-class oral readings, in a true "reading circle," will be held, along with lecture focusing on specific passages. In addition, open-book extra-credit quizzes may be held.  (f) An ASU Humanities website has additional materials, and may be accessed as indicated in the section "Materials on the Web/Internet," above.

Art Requirements and Details

Art instructor(s):  Pamela Ferguson–Haggins & Thomas Crowther (Nov.& Dec.) ; e-mail: pfergus1@aug.edu / tcrowthe@aug.edu ; Starting in November, I will be out on maternity leave. The art portion of the course will still follow the original guidelines. I have prepared class information for the substitute instructor. The instructor may change some of the slide information to suit the flow of the class.

Grading and reading:  (a)  Art Quizzes = 80 points ; Four art quizzes will be given during the semester. Each quiz will equal 20 points. At the end of the semester, those points will be added together with the Virtual Gallery Experience (see below) towards the final art grade portion of the course. All quizzes will be given at the beginning of the class period.  The quizzes will include slide identification (the title, the visual artist and/or period of the work), true/ false and multiple-choice questions. Students should also know the content and iconography behind selected images. Class time will be used to compare and contrast images. (b)  The Virtual Gallery Experience (Due-Sept.30) = 20 points - Mandatory. (Four visual art galleries and /or art museums)  Explore four visual art galleries' and/or art museum's websites listed on the art section of the course Pipeline link. The museums/galleries must be outside of the Georgia/ South Carolina area. Take a look at the upcoming exhibitions/artists. Write about what visual artist caught your interest at each site and why? Describe their work and list the name and dates of the exhibit. Between the four sites, which one would you visit and why? (c) Visit to the Morris Museum of Art – Mandatory (TBA) A lab will be scheduled for the Morris Museum of Art (visual art gallery).

The descriptions should include the artist name, title of the work, media, year, subject matter, exact colors, estimated size, explanation supporting why they feel this way, and any connection they made with the work. If attending a visual artist lecture, students must ask the artist one question about their work. Then, include the following information in a summary: the question, response, description of two pieces, the artist's medium (media), and any connection they made with the work. Also, list the artist name, the date, and location of the lecture. (e)  Helpful hints for an Art Exploration (e1) MAKE IT FUN! Art is all around you. Remember, you do not have to agree or like a piece. Always investigate the iconography behind the work. It is important to understand why you feel the way you do. That contributes to what makes it art! (e2) Studying images and reading When studying images, first look at the year the piece was completed. Next, read the initial pages of the chapter and the artist information to help define the period and the culture. (e3) Additional art images or changes  Students will be notified of any additional images or changes. Notes will be posted on Pipeline. Some of the images and information posted on Pipeline will be taken from Gardner's Art Through the Ages, 12th edition - Volume I, Fred S. Kleiner and Christin J.
