RHET 124 - Communication, Culture, Healing

Semester Hours: 3
Periodically 
This class explores experiences and practices of healing as students consider the communication about healing in a variety of cultures. It moves from a concern about cure to a wider consideration of healing contexts. As the students learn that the possibilities of healing are defined by the culture of the healers, the healed, and the audiences to healing, they begin to explore performances of narrative, music, dance, and ritual as healing modalities in a variety of cultures. 


Prerequisite(s)/Course Notes:
  May not be taken on a Pass/D+/D/Fail basis. (Formerly Healing as a Cultural Performance.)
