Class Description

Description

Idolatry is a very old-fashioned word that concerns itself with the dangers associated with pictures and what they want from us. What are the benefits and dangers of an image-saturated world? Along with lectures and discussions provided by the instructor, in this collaborative course, students will have the opportunity to lead discussions related to the topic at hand.
