HNSM 470 - Learning the Hard Way: Know Yourself to Know the World 3 Credit Hours Antigone, Job, King Lear and Sir Gawain and the Green Knight share a common theme of what disasters that having power without wisdom can bring; ignorance, especially of one’s self, can wreak havoc in a world where human suffering is somehow connected to our understanding of human agency and divine power. This semester will be devoted to exploring ways of achieving wisdom and self-knowledge, as well as a discussion of how our society constructs the concepts of both human and divine power and wisdom
Prerequisite(s): Honors program students only. Senior standing.
