This course aims to broaden and deepen students? understanding of the foundations of Western Civilization, while at the same time creating an awareness of the multiple regional influences and cultural interactions that shaped these foundations. It aims to do that primarily through a study of some of the ?Great Books? that participated in shaping Western thought. The primary texts will be discussed to enable the students to personally interact with them imaginatively as well as critically.
