Course Details

This interactive class will be used as a space to critically analyze notions of love and where our understandings of love have come from. We will ponder and attempt to perceive how love is incorporated into our daily lives as students, scholars, workers, families, and active members of communities.

We will vision possible logic trajectories of love, or lack thereof, individually and societally based on what we discover while learning through our explorations.

We will explore:
o ways in which love is expressed by human people
o words and metaphors associated with love in English and other languages
o where love is placed in different philosophical and scholarly schema
o historical concepts and discourses regarding human love
o how love can be a force for social action
o what sorts of actions are attributed to human love
o human discourses on love about non-human love
