Phone: 865-3640 Email: [email protected] Mothers and fathers across the land/please don’t criticize what you can’t understand / Your sons and daughters are beyond your command/ your old world is rapidly aging/ So get out of the new world if you can’t lend a hand/ ‘cause the times they are a changing. --Bob Dylan We want the world and we want it now. --The Doors It’s always the old to lead us to the wars/ Always the young to fall/ Now look at all we won with a saber and a gun/ Tell me, is it worth it all? --Phil Ochs They paved paradise and put up a parking lot. --Joni Mitchell All you need is love. --The Beatles COURSE DESCRIPTION This course offers a social history and critical analysis of one of the most turbulent, complex, and watershed decades in American history—the 1960s. From its origins in the Cold War culture of the 1950s, to the end of the Vietnam War in 1975, the people, events, ideas, and innovations of the sixties significantly changed the sociopolitical structure and cultural values of the United States, as well as many aspects of the larger world. Above all, the 1960s were a defining era that remains a huge part of our lives today in countless ways and with continuing impacts. COURSE LEARNING OBJECTIVES My goals for this course, among others, are that you: • Gain an overview of some of the key social movements and patterns of social change that characterized the mid-20th century of the U.S./world and how they were reflected in the attitudes, events, innovations, politics, music, literature, art, technology, and institutions of the time. 1 • Appreciate the ways in which significant portions of society--particularly young people and college students like yourself--were dramatically changed forever by the events of the period. • Appreciate the numerous ways in which the larger cultural and political values of the nation were similarly changed by the events of the period. • Understand the many political, economic, social, and cultural legacies of the 1960s and the debt we owe to those activists and ordinary citizens who helped pave the way for many of the freedoms and privileges that we take for granted today. • Gain a strong experiential feel for the spirit, interpersonal sensibilities, and feelings of political/social empowerment that millions of people developed during the period and its aftermath. • Develop your ability to think more critically about the institutional sources of power in society, their role in propagating various forms of social inequality, and the role of organized protest and resistance in protecting democractic/constitutional rights. • Develop a stronger “Sociological Imagination” by learning the extent to which virtually every biographical aspect of your life today--as well our larger socio-political structure--has roots in the historical events of the 1960s. ASSIGNMENTS AND GRADES Your course grade will consist of the following requirements: • 3 in-class exams (30% each) = 90% • Personal Interview/Film Critique Paper = 10% • Potential extra points can be gained for attending announced community events and writing a 2-3 page summary/reaction paper to be turned in the following class. Additional points can also be gained for outstanding attendance and participation throughout the semester. Course grades will be determined by the following standard point/percentage categories: A = 90-100 % B+ = 88-89% B = 80-87% C+ = 78-79% C = 70-77% D+ = 68-69% D = 60-67% F = Below 60% 2 ATTENDANCE AND EXAM POLICY Class attendance is mandatory if you expect to do well in this course. You are responsible, should you be absent or present, for whatever is assigned and presented in class, be it readings, lectures, stories, speakers, films, or handouts. Taking make-up tests or submitting papers late without penalty will only be allowed in the event of an immediate, serious illness or personal emergency/situation that physically prevents you from attending class. If such an emergency should take place, you must notify me in person or by telephone/email before the end of the day of class, stating the problem and specifically when you will be in touch with me about making-up the assignment. Failure to notify me beforehand about a missed written assignment or test will constitute an “unexcused late grade” and will result in a full grade reduction from the assigned grade for each class day (M-F) past the due date the paper is turned in or the test taken. (Keep in mind, however, that a late F paper/test is much better than earning a 0 !) No after-the-fact explanations or rationalizations will be allowed—NO EXCEPTIONS! In other words, just like a job in the “real” world, show good judgement and responsibility toward your work and educational commitments and communicate with me about whatever problems you may have regarding coursework. This course will greatly educate you about an important period in American history and its legacies today, but doing well in it will require strong attention to the basics for every class--careful reading and review, being prepared for class discussion, attentiveness, curiosity, and good note-taking in class, as well as solid thinking, writing, and proofreading skills for your papers. Like anything else in life, you will get out of the class as much as you put into it and you will earn the grade you receive. Let’s all work together to make it a great class and learning experience! UNIVERSITY POLICY ON STUDENT DISABILITIES AND CONDUCT • Students with disabilities who wish to receive accomodations in this class should contact Disabilities Services at 865-2990 as soon as possible so that warranted accomodations can be implemented in a timely fashion. Disability Services are located in the Academic Resource Center, Monroe Hall 405. • Students are expected to conduct themselves in the classroom in compliance with university regulations on civility, cheating, and plagiarism. For information, see the University Bulletin. Personal Class Policies and Suggestions • It is a privilege to attend college and to learn. Take your education seriously and treat the classroom experience and your classmates with respect. The classroom is NOT the place to check your phone or text messages, read the newspaper, or work on other assignments. Please turn off all cell phones and pagers and remove your baseball caps while in class. • Arrive to class on time and do not begin packing up your belongings or stand up to leave until I dismiss class. Please visit the restroom and water fountain before class starts. 3 • If you bring a beverage can into class, take it out with you—along with any used paper—and recycle them in Loyola’s can/paper bins on campus. Please dispose of any other nonrecyclable trash around you in the trash can when you leave. • • Make sure you are technically proficient with the computer/software and printer that you chose to use for your written assignments. Failure to properly “save” your work or neatly print out your papers is not an acceptable excuse for turning in late work! • Words are a beautiful thing so treat the English language with respect. Always take time to write thoughtfully, clearly, and proofread your writing many times before you turn in an assignment. Use the WAC lab or Academic Resource Center staff if you need assistance with your assignments—as most students do. • • By the same token, think before you speak and be clear and articulate in your verbal communications. Avoid “mallspeak” and today’s street talk, e.g., filling up your communication interactions with empty words such as “like,” “uh,” “you know,” “whatever,” “cool,” “really,” etc. Say what you mean and mean what you say. For the rest of your life, people will judge you by what they first hear out of your mouth. • Socrates said “The unexamined life is not worth living.” Formulate questions about whatever you read or learn and ask them in class. The only “stupid” question is the one not asked. • Do not cheat. It will only end in bitterness • • If for any reason you find yourself having a problem with the class material, my teaching style, other students, or any other issue that is negatively affecting your enjoyment of the course, please make an appointment to come talk to me about your issues so we can try to solve them together before they impact your grade. • Finally, read a newspaper every day, a good book every month or so, contemplate the world around you, and CARPE DIEM!!! (See the films “Dead Poets Society” and “Finding Forrester” for some excellent academic role models.) REQUIRED TEXTS • The Sixties (2007) by Terry H.

Jaargang 73 4 Vervlakt de intonatie? Ouderen en jongeren met elkaar vergeleken Vincent J. van Heuven - Fonetisch Laboratorium, Universiteit Leiden Ouderen kunnen jongeren vaak maar moeilijk verstaan. Ze praten te snel, te slordig en vooral te monotoon, zo luidt de klacht. Zou dat wijzen op een verandering? Wordt de Nederlandse zinsmelodie inderdaad steeds vlakker? Twee onderzoeken bieden meer duidelijkheid. Ik heb twee zoons in de adolescente leeftijdsgroep, zo tussen de 16 en de 20. Toen ik ze nog dagelijks om me heen had (ze zijn inmiddels technisch gesproken volwassen en het huis uit), mocht ik graag luistervinken als ze in gesprek waren met hun vrienden. Dan viel op dat alle jongens, niet alleen de mijne, snel spraken, met weinig stemverheffing, en vooral met weinig melodie. Het leek wel of ze het erom deden. Een Amerikaanse collega, die elk jaar een paar weken bij mij logeert om zijn Nederlands bij te houden, gaf ongevraagd toe dat hij in het algemeen weinig moeite heeft om Nederlanders te verstaan, behalve dan mijn zoons en hun vrienden. Een paar jaar eerder was ik in een onderzoek beoordelaar van de uitspraak van 120 Nederlanders, in leeftijd variërend van puber tot bejaarde. Mij viel op dat de bejaarden zo veel prettiger waren om naar te luisteren. Niet alleen spraken ze langzamer dan de jongeren, maar vooral maakten ze veel beter gebruik van de mogelijkheden die onze taal biedt om de boodschap met behulp van het stemgebruik te structureren.

  • Michael Moore: a Man on a Mission Or How Far A
    Michael Moore: A Man on a Mission or How Far a Reinvigorated Populism Can Take Us Garry Watson (Cineaction 70) My focus in this essay will be on Michael Mooreʼs four documentaries – Roger and Me (1989), The Big One (1997), Bowling for Columbine (2002) and Fahrenheit 9/11 (2004) – with most of my attention being given to the first and third of these, and least to the second. These four films are significant and worth studying for a number of reasons: (i) The size of the audiences they have succeeded in reaching; (ii) the political impact they have had (on which, among other things, see Robert Brent Toplinʼs useful book on Michael Mooreʼs “Fahreneit 9/11”: How One Film Divided A Nation [2006]); (iii) and the extent to which they helped prepare the reception for such recent political documentaries as, for example, Errol Morrisʼs The Fog of War (2004), Mark Achbar and Jennifer Abbottʼs The Corporation (2005), Alex Gibneyʼs Enron: The Smartest Guys in the Room (2005), Eugene Jareckiʼs Why We Fight (2005), David Guggenheimʼs An Inconvenient Truth (2006), and Chris Paineʼs Who Killed the Electric Car? (2006). It may not be redundant to rehearse some of the facts. If Roger and Me was more successful at the box office than any documentary that preceded it, Moore went on to break the same record on two subsequent occasions – first with Bowling for Columbine, then with Fahrenheit 9/11. And as far as the latter is concerned, we get some sense of the excitement that was generated when it first screened in the US by the Foreword that John Berger wrote in 2004 for The Official “Fahrenheit 9/11” Reader (while the film was “still playing in hundreds of theaters across America”1).

  • Empathize with Your Enemy”
    PEACE AND CONFLICT: JOURNAL OF PEACE PSYCHOLOGY, 10(4), 349–368 Copyright © 2004, Lawrence Erlbaum Associates, Inc. Lesson Number One: “Empathize With Your Enemy” James G. Blight and janet M. Lang Thomas J. Watson Jr. Institute for International Studies Brown University The authors analyze the role of Ralph K. White’s concept of “empathy” in the context of the Cuban Missile Crisis, Vietnam War, and firebombing in World War II. They fo- cus on the empathy—in hindsight—of former Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara, as revealed in the various proceedings of the Critical Oral History Pro- ject, as well as Wilson’s Ghost and Errol Morris’s The Fog of War. Empathy is the great corrective for all forms of war-promoting misperception … . It [means] simply understanding the thoughts and feelings of others … jumping in imagination into another person’s skin, imagining how you might feel about what you saw. Ralph K. White, in Fearful Warriors (White, 1984, p. 160–161) That’s what I call empathy. We must try to put ourselves inside their skin and look at us through their eyes, just to understand the thoughts that lie behind their decisions and their actions. Robert S. McNamara, in The Fog of War (Morris, 2003a) This is the story of the influence of the work of Ralph K. White, psychologist and former government official, on the beliefs of Robert S. McNamara, former secretary of defense. White has written passionately and persuasively about the importance of deploying empathy in the development and conduct of foreign policy. McNamara has, as a policymaker, experienced the success of political decisions made with the benefit of empathy and borne the responsibility for fail- Requests for reprints should be sent to James G.

  • Documentary Film-Making in Theory and Practise
    Documentary Film-making in Theory and Practise By Didem Pekün [email protected] +90 537 4160103 Office no: TBC Office Hours: Fridays 2.30- 5 pm(Earlier hours can be arranged by appointment) Course Description The aims of the course are to foster an understanding of documentary as a diverse form, with a range of styles and genres, to root this diversity in its various historical and social contexts, and to introduce you to some analytical tools appropriate for study of your own and other filmmakers’ work. The course is formed by two sections; while the students will be informed of the history of the genre they will also make their own short documentary videos. As the course is practise-based, it is necessary that the students who wish to take it have a basic knowledge of film-making. Learning outcomes By the end of the course the students will be able to • Distinguish between, and critically evaluate, the principle ‘modes’ of documentary making • Be able to read a documentary text closely and write about how it communicates meaning • Understanding documentary production in its social and historical context • Be conversant with, and sensitive to, current debates about documentary ethics and aesthetics. • Produce their own short film, making informed and creative decisions at every stage of production process. Assesment Methods In-class participation and edit analysis presentation to the class 20 – each presentation starting from the 4th week Essay, 30 (1500 words) 17 MAY DEADLINE 2 video projects, 50; first one 5 minutes long - second one 10 – 15 mns long.

Filmmaking is a universal language which has proven to be a powerful tool of communication for fostering understanding and change. For this course, students will study the history and theory of the documentary film and its relationship to topics and arguments about the social world. Students will be introduced to theoretical frameworks in ethics and media theory as a means to interpret and reflect upon issues presented in documentary film. Weekly screenings and readings will set the focus for debate and discussion on these specific issues. Students will also work in small groups to create short documentary films on particular subject of their own concern. Through hands on experience, students will learn the basics in planning, producing, and editing a documentary film while gaining an in depth insight into a particular issue through extensive research and exploration. The semester will culminate with a public presentation of the documentary films created during the course at the 2006 Student Film Festival in late April. GOALS: Students will: • understand the history of documentary film and be able to critically address media related arts in relationship to societal issues.

  • The Great Documentaries II Instructor: Michael Fox Mondays, 12 Noon-1:30Pm, June 7-28, 2021 [email protected]
    The Great Documentaries II Instructor: Michael Fox Mondays, 12 noon-1:30pm, June 7-28, 2021 [email protected] With nonfiction films entrenched as a genre of mainstream movie entertainment, we examine standouts of the contemporary documentary. The five-session lineup is comprised of a trio of films about recent historical events bookended by personal documentaries. This lecture and discussion class (students will view the films on their own prior to class) encompasses perennial issues such as the responsibility of the filmmaker to his/her subject, the slipperiness of truth, the tools of storytelling and the use of poetry and metaphor in nonfiction. Four of the films can be streamed for free (three on Kanopy, one on Hoopla) and the other can be rented from Amazon Prime and other platforms. All the films are probably available via Netflix’s DVD plan. The Great Documentaries II is a historical survey that follows and builds on Documentary Touchstones I and II, which I taught at OLLI a few years ago. I’ve appended a list of those films and more information at the end of the syllabus, if you have never seen them and wish to journey further back into the history of documentaries. Most of the titles are available to watch for free on YouTube, although the quality of the prints varies. June 7 Sherman’s March (1986, Ross McElwee, 158 min) Kanopy After his girlfriend leaves him, McElwee voyages along the original route followed by Gen. William Sherman. Rather than cutting a swath of destruction designed to force the Confederate South into submission, McElwee searches for love, camera in hand, “training his lens with phallic resolve on every accessible woman he meets.” Grand Jury Prize at Sundance, named one of the Top 20 docs of all time by the International Documentary Association, added to the Library of Congress National Film Registry in 2000.
