Abstract Nature in Culture is an interdisciplinary course that introduces students to human-nature relationship represented in various fields of cultural productions, including film, literature, art, and music. Using a thematic focus on how humans imagine nature, the course will examine how humans see themselves as distinct from or connected with nature in different ways. Students will read literary and 1

2 philosophical texts, watch films, view art and architecture, and listen to music to analyze their underlying values of nature, referencing specific places and cultures. Students will gain knowledge of the emerging field ecocriticism to identify the cultural roots of ecological problems, recognizing how diverse factors philosophical, religious, aesthetic, socio-economic etc condition cultural interpretation of nature. Through critical writings, online discussions, and group projects, students will engage with their environment to analyze eco-representations, reflect on philosophical and aesthetic values, and propose humanistic solutions to the environmental crisis. 2. Course Aims This course, taught by faculty members from multiple academic units, aims to engage students in critically reflecting on human-nature relationship represented in various fields of cultural productions, including film, literature, art, and music. The interdisciplinary course asks how philosophers, film-makers, poets, writers, musicians, and artists, of various cultures and time periods, imagine and interpret nature in their works. The course will broaden students understanding of ecological issues as having cultural roots, and enable them to analyze those roots in terms of philosophical and aesthetic values, as well as their historical changes. Drawing from the multiple disciplines of philosophy, biology, psychology, religion, anthropology, creative media, comparative literature, art history, architecture, and musicology, the course will integrate students critical thinking with various realms of aesthetic experience, will enhance students innovative and diversity thinking, and will enable them to creatively apply emerging ecocritical concepts in analyzing eco-representations in culture. The course explores the overarching theme of how humans relate themselves to nature through such topics as: ecological crisis and apocalypse, Daoism and the natural course of things, Creation and natural laws, Romanticism and the sublime, landscape poetics, architecture in nature, animals and biophila, and the gendering of nature. Drawing from cases around the world, the course will enable students to have global and comparative knowledge. Drawing from recent eco-conscious expressive productions, including eco-cinema, eco-literature, eco-music, and eco-art, the course will deepen students aesthetic connection with nature, challenge them to embrace environmental ethics critically, and prepare them to discover ways to solve the environmental crisis with creative, humanistic solutions. 3. Course Intended Learning Outcomes (CILOs) Upon successful completion of this course, students should be able to: No. CILOs Weighting (if applicable) 1. Identify different modalities of relationship that human form with nature, ranging from seeing/hearing nature as: offering spiritual inspiration through contemplation; manifesting the dao to be at one with; manifesting infinity or God that demands submission; overwhelming that inspires sublime transcendence; the whole in which human is a part; fragmented resources to utilize; an other to be tamed and dominated; romanticized wilderness to explore; embodying gendered identity; to as the collapsing environment to be saved 2

3 2. Understand and be able to describe how nature imaginations and representations develop from diverse factors philosophy, religion, socio-economic intervention, aesthetic movement, environmentalism, among others and how these factors interrelate through individual human agency; develop curiosity about the processes 3. Analyze aesthetic and creative aspects of nature representations in a variety of expressive productions ranging from films (e.g. Japanese animation film), literary texts (e.g. nature writing from US, Europe, and China), art works (e.g. media art, painting, architecture, and sound art), to musical creations (e.g. European symphony, the Chinese seven-stringed qin music, and popular music) evidenced by the particular formal structures, styles, and thematic elements in each production 4. Apply ecocritical theories, philosophical inquiry techniques, and critical thinking to interpret underlying values of nature in cultural productions across disciplines 5. Compare nature imaginations and representations between cultures and between media of expression, with historical time references 6. Reflect on the diversity of human-nature relationships, the significance of environmental ethics, and humanistic solutions to environmental crisis 4. Teaching and Learning Activities (TLAs) (designed to facilitate students achievement of the CILOs - Some TLAs may address more than one CILO.) TLA CILO No. Hours/week (if applicable) Lectures: CILO 1-3 To introduce essential concepts and theories, and demonstrate analyses, with multidisciplinary and cross-cultural perspectives. Students will also be asked to read critical articles to contribute to discussion. Group and online discussions: To engage students in raising questions actively, to enhance their creative observation, critical thinking, application of theory, and synthesis of knowledge across disciplines. Group project and presentation: Students will be required to choose a topic related to class discussion and do further research on it. Each group s analysis will be structured around cultural products (e.g. a film, a text, a musical piece, or an art work) drawn from different expressive media, applied with interdisciplinary perspective. Multi-media presentation will enhance communication and organization skills. Reflection writing: CILO 3-5 CILO 3-5 CILO 6 Writing personal reflection on values of nature will relate new learning of nature representations to one s own self connection with nature, facilitating creative thinking on proposing what kind of human-nature relationship might help solving real-life, ecological problems related to the environmental crisis. 3

4 5. Assessment Tasks/Activities (designed to assess how well the students achieve the CILOs Some assessment tasks/activities may address more than one CILO.) Type of Assessment Tasks/Activities CILO No. Weighting (if applicable) Class participation: CILO % Remarks Students will be required to participate actively in class, during Lectures and Tutorials. Their class discussion will involve interacting with comments received from instructor and peers. Online Discussion: Students will be required to participate in discussion on Blackboard through posting questions and response writings, which involve critical reading, application of assigned reading(s), and personal reflection on values of nature. Group project: Students will be required to choose a topic from those discussed in class and do further research on it. Their analysis will be structured around cultural products (e.g. a film, a text, a picture, or a musical piece) drawn from different expressive media. Two kinds of analytical objects will be required: (1) a nature-related expressive artifact collected from surrounding or newly created by students; (2) a comparable artifact that is discussed in Lectures, assigned readings, or reference readings researched by students. Comparative perspectives across disciplines and cultures will be required in the analysis. Reflection on alleviating the environmental crisis will be included. Students will receive progress feedback for their projects from instructor, and will be expected to integrate comments and suggestions received. Group presentation: CILO 3-5, 6 28% CILO % CILO % Students will be required to present their group project to class with multi-media resources, and respond to feedback received in class. 4
