Global Perspectives
Global Perspectives courses are designed to introduce students to the opportunities and challenges of living in an increasingly globalized world. As the St. 蜜桃传媒 Strategic Plan notes, our world is 鈥渕arked by social, cultural, political, technological and economic interdependence and integration across local, national and international boundaries鈥; thus 鈥渦nderstanding and integrating global knowledge, perspectives and intercultural competencies is essential to living, working and serving.鈥
The study of and dialogue with world cultures is central to the idea of a Catholic university. Ex Corde Ecclesiae, for example, calls for an impartial search for truth, 鈥渁 search that is neither subordinated to nor conditioned by particular interests of any kind.鈥 It exhorts Catholic universities to 鈥渂ecome more attentive to the cultures of the world today鈥 and to realize that various diverse cultures provide 鈥渁 wealth for the whole of the human family.鈥 [Ex Corde Ecclesiae, 7, 45]
A course may satisfy GP and the Integrations in the Humanities requirement; however, a single course cannot satisfy both GP and a core-area requirement (other than Integrations in the Humanities) for the same student.
Students must take four credits.
Some sections of a course may carry the GP flag while others do not. Students should use ClassFinder to determine which course sections satisfy the GP requirement in the term for which you are completing the requirement.
A study abroad course which spends 20 days abroad (including travel days) will automatically meet the GP requirement (such a study abroad course may also meet another core-area requirement).
International students are counted as having satisfied the Global Perspectives requirement.

Course Registration Number:21662 () Credit Hours:4 Instructor:Derrin R. Pinto In this course we will consider how our traditional perception of words and meaning (e.g. the practice of looking up definitions of a word in the dictionary) fails to explain how we communicate and understand one another鈥檚 thoughts, feelings, needs, etc. As successful communicators, we constantly rely on our contextual knowledge to interpret what speakers intend to say, and the study of Pragmatics provides us with insight into this process. In addition to studying different linguistic phenomena in Spanish, we will also take into account differences between Spanish and English.

Instructor:Craig D. Eliason Modernist artists strove to find a visual language of expression appropriate to their time; yet many contemporaries found their works incomprehensible, as do many people today. An open-minded and historically informed investigation of modern art helps to make sense of it. This course will explore the history of European painting and sculpture from 1880 to 1940. It will consider the many movements that characterized modernism, such as Post-Impressionism, Symbolism, Fauvism, Cubism, Futurism, Expressionism, Dada, Surrealism, and Constructivism. Issues to be addressed include the rejection of tradition, the development of abstraction, the impact of World War I and its aftermath, the influence of science and technology on art, and the fate of modernism under Hitler's and Stalin's regimes. Particular attention will be paid to the theoretical underpinnings of modern art. Schedule Details

Instructor:Sonia Rey-Montejo This specific offering of the course examines 20th and 21st century literary representations of afro-identity in Latin America, the Spanish Caribbean and Equatorial Guinea with special attention to the intersections of race, gender, class, and nationality. We will analyze how the work of art (a literary text, a movie, a painting, a song, to name a few examples) serves as a space for reflection on concepts such as 鈥榬ace,鈥 ethnicity, hegemony, resistance, multiculturalism, and hybridity. Primary readings will be supplemented by relevant historical, critical, and theoretical texts. Along with these readings we will also view documentaries and films that deal specifically with issues of race and ethnicity within these minority communities.
