  • SOCI 222 Analyzing Talk

    Division of Liberal Arts

    3 credits 45.0 hours
    200 level undergraduate course

    This course asks: What can be learned by listening, recording, and analyzing human communication? Much like the interdisciplinary course Observing Humans, Analyzing Talk will involve student-led field work in a location chosen by the student. This is a course primarily about the study of power and culture; the students will be learning about patterned power dynamics through the frameworks of gender, race, ethnicity, class, and age. Speech, para-linguistics, gesture, and posture are the focus as the course introduces classics in sociolinguistics, semiotics, and video ethnography. Like music, drama, and choreography, and visual art, human talk can be analyzed both aesthetically and structurally. Framed by the media available of its time, Analyzing Talk will cover speech and gesture research and will ask how media extends and limits the questions of a particular age. Classics in documentary film will augment the course.

    3 credits 45.0 hours
    200 level undergraduate course

    The long century of Romanticism and Revolution coincides with the ascendancy of the Central-European symphony as the preeminent expression of abstract musical thought - indeed the embodiment of art as philosophy. The course charts the origins and evolution of the genre in the changing relationships between aesthetics and politics throughout the 19th century; the rise of the interpretive conductor as well as technical developments in musical instrument design that fueled the symphony’s broad appeal; and the historical continuities underlying the construction of the artist-hero, the tortured genius and “maker of the worlds.” Individual works selected for close examination will fall into the four categories: the seminal works of Beethoven; the Romantic generation from Mendelssohn to Brahms; the post-Wagnerian synthesis of orchestral writing, from Bruckner to Tchaikovsky; followed by the genre’s earliest dialogue with modernity in the symphonies of Mahler.
