HUM 151 - Through the Looking Glass: Science Fiction and Fantasy Literature as a Mirror for Life


Stories help us know who we are, where we come from, and sometimes, where we are going. In this course students read from the genres known as science fiction and fantasy, to understand these forms better and to explore them in relation to their own lived experience. Literary elements such as plot, characterization, world-building and metaphor are examined. Class discussion and short, reflective writing assignments are featured learning activities.

Prerequisite(s): Completion of ENG097; placement in ENG 101  or higher
