Course objectives

The aim of the course is to introduce final year students to the broad field of cultural theory and history outside of the theatre context, however, from a perspective based on the requirements for expanding knowledge in the field of cultural production. The course will primarily focus on the theory of culture and art with overlaps into anthropology, psychology and ethology. Emphasis will be placed on theorizing about the functions of the arts, especially the role they play as a catalyst for group cohesion. This is not only in traditional hunter-gatherer societies, but also in contemporary pop culture.

Learning outcomes

Students will gain a rich theoretical foundation regarding the study of human culture as a distinctive human adaptation and gain a much broader understanding of the human behavior we refer to as art and how it is currently studied in an interdisciplinary perspective.

Syllabus

• The structure of the course will be structured around selected topics:
• 1) Introduction to the theory of culture as central to human adaptation to varying environments;
• 2) Introduction to anthropological and psychological approaches to the study of artistic behavior;
• 3) Application of these approaches to contemporary pop culture - a case study of contemporary American rap.
