Course Description

KS101 Culture in Thematic Perspective 0.5

The study of culture is a pluralistic activity that takes place not inside the narrow perimeters of a specific discipline but inside and throughout the multiple cultural discourses that surround us. In fact, the field of cultural studies has emerged from the challenges posed to traditional humanistic and social scientific agendas by new research strategies in visual studies; music, anthropology, ethnography and folklore; feminist studies; comparative sociology and politics; semiotics; social, cultural, literary and political theory; science studies; colonial discourse analysis; ethnic studies; and the histories of sexualities.
