Comparative Practices

Comparative Practices (3-4 semester hours) courses are reading- and writing-intensive courses that examine a diverse range of texts focused on a particular question, theme or historical period. In this context the term texts  may include films, musical scores or works of art. Comparative Practices courses:

• Provide a writing- and reading-intensive experience that develops further the skills acquired in Interpretive Practices.

• Study an array of challenging texts arranged around a particular question, or theme or historical period.

• Compare texts within several contexts — historical, social, political, etc., and put them in dialogue with one another.
