HUM 310-02 Key Concepts:
Literary Utopias (3)
Prerequisite: Completion of lower division Humanities requirements.
For the past 2500 years, human beings have discussed, debated, striven
for and written about the "perfect" place, the model of
happiness where people lead lives of idealism and comradeship. From
Plato to Orwell, fictional utopias have run the gamut from selfless
expressions of goodwill to selfish indulgence that only seemed to
add to human suffering.
The course will explore this notion of utopia and its dysfunctional
opposite, the dystopia, through the reading of five texts: three
older, classic texts: Plato's Republic, More's Utopia and Bacon's
New Atlantis, as well as newer, more science-fiction oriented texts:
Huxley's Brave New World and Orwell's 1984. We will explore several
themes that run through all these works such as utopian geography,
society, education, science, religion and government. Research papers
and presentations/discussions will be employed by students to demonstrate
their awareness of the specific features of each text.
