LAS 168 - What’s in a Name?

3 hours

How important are the race, ethnicity, and language of one’s ancestors for determining one’s personal identity? How does this compare with the impact of one’s immediate surroundings? This seminar explores these and other questions by focusing on the experiences of “uprooted” and “transplanted” people at different points in space and time as they search for a sense of self.
