MASTERPIECES OF WESTERN ART
Equivalent to HUMA C1121 and F1121. Not a historical survey but an analytical study of masterpieces, including originals available in the metropolitan area. The chief purpose is to acquaint students with the experience of a work of art. A series of topics in the development of Western art, selected to afford a sense of the range of expressive possibilities in painting, sculpture, and architecture, such as the Parthenon, the Gothic cathedral, and works of Michelangelo, Bruegel, Picasso, and others. Space is limited. Columbia University undergraduates who need this course for graduation are encouraged to register during early registration.

MASTERPIECES OF WESTERN MUSIC
Equivalent to MUSI F1123 and C1123. Part of the Core Curriculum since 1947, Music Humanities aims to instill in students a basic comprehension of the many forms of the Western musical imagination. Its specific goals are to awaken and encourage in students an appreciation of music in the Western world, to help them learn to respond intelligently to a variety of musical idioms, and to engage them in the various debates about the character and purposes of music that have occupied composers and musical thinkers since ancient times. The course attempts to involve students actively in the process of critical listening, both in the classroom and in concerts that the students attend and write about. The extraordinary richness of musical life in New York is thus an integral part of the course. Although not a history of Western music, the course is taught in a chronological format and includes masterpieces by Josquin des Prez, Monteverdi, Bach, Handel, Mozart, Haydn, Beethoven, Verdi, Wagner, Schoenberg, and Stravinsky, among others. No previous knowledge of music required. Columbia University undergraduates who need this course for graduation are encouraged to register during early registration.

PHILOSOPHICAL REFLECTIONS ON LOVE, LOSS,
This course explores ancient literature, art, and philosophy with an eye to questions like: What should we seek or love? How do our goals and loves relate to those of our family, friends, and community? Why is it so hard to discover and then satisfy our real loves? Are loss and suffering requisites for finding our "real" loves? For finding virtue? By applying these questions to ancient texts, we will try to learn something about ourselves as human beings in a time of crisis. This course will count toward the philosophy major.

Core as Praxis/Fieldwork
GS - Literature Humanities
“The Core as Praxis/Fieldwork” provides students with the opportunity to explore the connections among texts from the Core Curriculum, their work in their major field of study, and their work in a professional environment outside of Columbia’s campus. Students will be guided through a process of reflection on the ideas and approaches that they develop in Core classes and in the courses in their major, to think about how they can apply theory to practice in the context of an internship or other experiential learning environment. Students will reread and revisit a text that they have studied previously in Literature Humanities or in Contemporary Civilization as the basis for their reading and writing assignments over the semester. Therefore, (1) students must be engaged during the semester in an internship or other experiential learning opportunity, and (2) students must fill out a an application (which is provided upon registering for the waitlist of their section) prior to registration indicating which Core text they would like to study in conjunction with their internship or experiential learning opportunity, and how it relates to their major/concentration and internship or experiential learning.
Students are eligible to enroll in HUMA UN2000 only after they have (1) completed the sophomore year and (2) declared their major (or concentration).
HUMA UN2000 may not be taken with the pass/d/fail option. All students will receive a letter grade for the course. Students can take HUMAUN2000 twice. NOTE: In order to be enrolled for your section, you must register for the waitlist and complete the application form (application link will be provided after enrolling for the waitlist). Once your application is received, you will then be manually enrolled in the course by the Core office.

Core as Praxis/Fieldwork
CC - Literature Humanities
“The Core as Praxis/Fieldwork” provides students with the opportunity to explore the connections among texts from the Core Curriculum, their work in their major field of study, and their work in a professional environment outside of Columbia’s campus. Students will be guided through a process of reflection on the ideas and approaches that they develop in Core classes and in the courses in their major, to think about how they can apply theory to practice in the context of an internship or other experiential learning environment. Students will reread and revisit a text that they have studied previously in Literature Humanities or in Contemporary Civilization as the basis for their reading and writing assignments over the semester. Therefore, (1) students must be engaged during the semester in an internship or other experiential learning opportunity, and (2) students must fill out a an application (which is provided upon registering for the waitlist of their section) prior to registration indicating which Core text they would like to study in conjunction with their internship or experiential learning opportunity, and how it relates to their major/concentration and internship or experiential learning.
Students are eligible to enroll in HUMA UN2000 only after they have (1) completed the sophomore year and (2) declared their major (or concentration).
HUMA UN2000 may not be taken with the pass/d/fail option. All students will receive a letter grade for the course. Students can take HUMAUN2000 twice. NOTE: In order to be enrolled for your section, you must register for the waitlist and complete the application form (application link will be provided after enrolling for the waitlist).

DANCE IN PARIS
This 28-day course is an immersion in Parisian culture from the point of view of the dancer. The course is divided into three major components: technique, composition, and history. Students will take a series of technique classes in modern, ballet, improvisation, world dance forms, and yoga, taught by Barnard/USF and international guest faculty, as well as opportunities to take alternative technique classes in some of Paris’s professional dance studios. Students will be exposed to the rich artistic side of Paris through lectures and performances, as well as assigned readings by major dancers/writers/artists who have drawn on the Parisian landscape as inspiration for their work. A final choreographic project based on compositional exercises that will take students to various Parisian locales, will be presented during the final week of the course. We will also visit many important locations essential to studying the history of dance in Western culture, including Versailles, Théâtre de la Ville and the Paris Opera.
