Extended Multimedia Encounters with Core Texts

Invites students to re-imagine Core texts in new, digital formats and contexts. Each section focuses on a particular Core text or texts to consider, reflect on and develop new mediations of the work. Registration requirement: Students must demonstrate previous experience of studying, performing, or otherwise engaging with the text on a sophisticated level, or must receive consent from the instructor. In Spring 2027, one section will focus on Gilgamesh and one will focus on film adaptations of selected Core Texts. Effective Fall 2019, this course fulfills a single unit in each of the following BU Hub areas: Digital/Multimedia Expression, Teamwork/Collaboration, Creativity/Innovation.
