課程概述 |
Course Description
Hybrid creatures embody the perennial human desire to connect with something outside oneself. Jesus Christ is said to be the perfect hybrid, which incorporates man and God. This course is to explore the ramifications of such imagined or manufactured creatures, be it mermaid, sphinx, lamia, flying lion, etc., in terms of philosophy, religion, alchemy, natural history, literature, fairy tale, and arts. The course follows a roughly chronological order: classical, medieval, Romantic, Modern, and contemporary periods.

課程目標 |
Course Objectives
This course is to train in-depth exploration into the intermeshed fields of literature, folklore, arts, religion, politics, biology and contemporary literary theory. Skills at verbal and visual analysis will be sharpened along with a broader horizon of human longings to connect. Texts of various periods and are covered to facilitate a more comprehensive view on issues related to hybrid creatures. Theoretical approaches will be drawn from becoming animal / plant, and critical animal / plant studies. Students are trained to present their findings and opinions in class presentation and discussion, and finally consolidate them in the form of a term paper.
