HUM 210 Mindfully Living in France
The course will offer an overview of French Literature through the lens of the 5 senses. It will focus on texts such as Proust’s famous “La Madeleine,” Merleau-Ponty’s analysis of the red color, Delerme’s minute description of the ritual of buying croissants at the bakery. This textual analysis will be articulated with direct experiences, whether it is museum visits, concerts, art practice (Photography), or mindful meditations.
