The course will include an in-depth examination of classical liberal theory and its critique – key figures like John Locke, Adam
Theories of Knowledge — PHI2104.01
What does it mean to know something? Can we know anything? Can you know whether you know? How do you distinguish knowledge from mere belief? What factors affect what we believe? In this course, we’re going to look at knowledge from both a philosophical and psychological perspective. Philosophically, when is it rational to believe? Psychologically, what forces

Theories of Revolution — SPA4119.01
Over the past two centuries, in an apparently perpetual movement towards democratic independence, Latin America has confronted ruptures in tradition and experimented with a variety of revolutionary discourses to project its multiple pasts into the future. This course will read the postcolonial back into the European and US epistemai, and vice-versa, exploring how Latin

Theory of Impressionism — MTH4112.01
This seminar will look at works by Claude Debussy and Maurice Ravel, as well as by Erik Satie, Les Six, Tailleferre, Boulanger, and diverse U.S. composers at the turn of the 20th century. We will start by looking at Debussy’s Preludes as a microcosm of his harmonic style, and then analyze major orchestral works. Ravel’s Tombeau de Couperin, String Quartet, and select songs will

There Are No Sidelines: Universal Health Approaches to Firearm Injury Prevention Part 2 — APA2449.02) (cancelled as of 12/13/2021
Despite decades of political advocacy for gun control, the health toll from firearm misuse in the United States has only continued to rise. Firearm-related injuries and deaths remain among the most urgent, unsolved health emergencies facing our country because society has not yet implemented comprehensive health-based solutions to treat gun violence. The primary obstacle to

There Is Always a Clock — DRA4384.01
The hero has till sundown to get out of Dodge. The heroine has to take the full course of cancer treatments. The polar vortex is coming. The iceberg is waiting for its date with the Titanic. They say that the main character of every story is time. In timebound art forms, there are two times running in parallel: the story’s, and the audience’s.

Thermal and Statistical Physics — PHY4108.01
In the wake of the Industrial Revolution, physicists developed thermal physics as a way of improving the efficiency of steam engines. At nearly the same time, the development of statistical physics gave birth to an understanding of how large ensembles of particles interacted. We will study both the macroscopic (“Thermal”) and microscopic (“Statistical”) view of systems and the

Thermal Physics — PHY4104.01
The simple concept of Temperature is not so simple. In this class, we will investigate the meaning of temperature and how what we know about thermodynamics and entropy informs our view of the physical world. Such an investigation is fundamentally statistical, so we will build a statistical view of physical systems and use that understanding to broadly study such topics as the
Thesis Forms: Artist's Book — DAN5414B.01
Through individualized meetings, the course will support students in developing and completing written components of the thesis artist’s book. These meetings will be opportunities for discussion and feedback, aiming towards the composition, annunciation, vision, and eloquence of each artist’s written and critically expressive voice. As another component of the
