ONLINE Sheena Nahm Instructor to be announced What happens when media, in all their diverse forms, take on the issues of This class introduces theories of personality through readings of primary health and social change? We examine the way health and media are both texts by major theorists. We begin by examining the groundbreaking constructed from and interpreted within cultural settings. Focusing on research of Sigmund Freud and his theory of personality development and examples from television, film, and new media, we discuss a range of illness the unconscious. We then read modern Freudians, from John Bowlby and narratives, including ones involving eating disorders, cancer, depression, Margaret Mahler to Erik Erikson and Heinz Kohut. We look at Melanie and AIDS. We explore questions central to medical anthropology and the Klein and the British Middle Group, particularly Donald Winnicott.

Do different media cultures intersection of factors including subjectivity, biological inheritance, personal produce different articulations of disease? Students learn to consider biological history, and culture. We question the idea of a “normal” personality and study phenomena from a cultural perspective, with special attention given to the the way each theorist defines the abnormal or pathological. We also draw on way they are reinforced or countered by media. The class also looks at the cultural and clinical texts to illuminate these theories and the relevance of use of public space to discuss medical views of illness. In the process, we psychoanalysis to art and other cultural practices. (3 credits) explore social, historical, and cultural views of media as an avenue for social change. (3 credits) Cross-Cultural Psychology NPSY3345 A 9 weeks, June 2 thru Aug. 1. Noncredit tuition $650. ONLINE Instructor to be announced Traditional theories of psychology, developed primarily by Western Europeans and North Americans, are based on the unexamined assumption that all human behavior can be explained through a single worldview. However, recent research has demonstrated that despite certain universals among human societies, norms in non-Western societies sometimes differ from those in Western Europe and North America. In this course, students learn to make distinctions between behaviors exhibited by all humans, like the use of language, and culturally determined behaviors. To that end, the class explores the influence of culture on perception, cognition, education, individual and social behavior, expressions of physical and mental illnesses, and self- perception. (3 credits)

Abnormal Psychology NPSY3501 A 15 sessions. Mon. & Wed., 6:00–7:50 p.m., beg. June 2. Noncredit tuition $650. Instructor to be announced Using a multitheoretical model of psychopathology, students explore basic contemporary and historical conceptions of abnormal behavior. They are introduced to the current classification system of mental disorders, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM-V), and consider its strengths and weaknesses in an increasingly complex field. Psychodynamic, cognitive, humanistic, and sociocultural approaches to major Axis I and Axis II disorders are presented. Students employ critical thinking as they examine current controversies over classification, assessment, and treatment of mental illness. (3 credits)

Students also conduct research on potential audiences for such discussions and design materials for use in public settings across New York City. (3 credits)

Emily Dickinson NLIT3324 A 5 sessions. Mon., 6:00–7:50 p.m., beg. June 2. Noncredit tuition $220. Andrew Rubenfeld Radical in her own time, still relevant today, Emily Dickinson’s poetry probes universal themes such as love, death, society, nature, and God. Her style is deeply personal, sometimes enigmatic, always innovative—yet surprisingly accessible. This course, an introduction to her poetry, considers topics including Dickinson’s metrical debt to hymns, her relationship to transcendentalist philosophy, the use of various literary masks, feminist approaches to gender, and the nature of the creative impulse itself. Dickinson explores not just American life but the cosmos itself from the vantage point of mid-19th-century Amherst, Massachusetts. An investigation of Dickinson’s correspondence reveals the indistinct line between lyric and letter, each telling the truth, but, in her own words, telling it “slant.” (1 credit)

Nineteenth-Century Novels and Movies NLIT3880 A 9 weeks, June 2 thru Aug 1. Noncredit tuition $650. ONLINE Abigail Bloom Great novelists are able to see beyond the limitations of their own society, to glimpse the realities beneath the surface and draw out the psychological depths of their characters. Is this subtlety of penetration lost in the transition from the printed page to the screen? Does the quest for popularity demand alteration of the original? Or does translating a novel into a movie in a different era give it new depth? Through analysis of the choices made in creating adaptations, deeper levels of the novel and the film emerge, revealing the richness and depth of both art forms. We read three classic novels (Jane Austen’s Emma, Emily Brontë’s Wuthering Heights, and Charles Dickens’ Great Expectations) and consider how they have been changed, envisioned, and enlivened by filmmakers. (Films are not posted online; students must arrange to view the films on their own.) (3 credits)

Employing a double Luis Guzman articulation that reaches both child and adult, these authors wrote fantasies that, like dreams, take us beyond the conventional idiom of ordinary reality What does it mean to believe we are free? How do we reconcile the concept into worlds of wonder and that allow us to explore deep-rooted wishes, of an omniscient god with the idea of individual freedom? Are our actions needs, and fears. We examine how each of these highly sensitive authors predetermined? These questions have been raised by philosophers for confounded the categories that license sexual normality, valued the eccentric 2,500 years. Without an answer to them, our self-understanding as moral and the singular over the conventional and the standardized, and promoted beings, responsible for our actions, is jeopardized. In this course, students the development of social consciousness through either satire or social consider different answers to these questions offered by thinkers from Plato criticism. Each author employed fantasy in a revolutionary way, as a means of to Nietzsche and beyond. Focusing on the problem of free will from both countering an overly puritanical, utilitarian mentality that tended to be deeply religious-ethical and scientific-materialist points of view, students learn the suspicious of the imagination; and, because all wonder tales depend on the importance of ascribing moral responsibility to human action.

Modern Classics: Joyce, Woolf, and Faulkner NLIT3545 A 15 sessions. Tues. and Thurs., 4:00–5:50 p.m., beg. June 3. Noncredit tuition $650. Margaret Boe Birns This course focuses on challenging works by three of the greatest authors of the 20th century, each a major force in the cultural awakening we call the modernist movement in literature. We begin with James Joyce’s groundbreaking experimental novel Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man, in which he transforms his suffocating Dublin boyhood into a symbol for the struggle of young modern artists everywhere. We then turn to Virginia Woolf’s To The Lighthouse and Mrs. Dalloway, each a metaphysical and psychological journey taken within the context of daily life. Last we read William Faulkner’s The Sound and The Fury, a narrative rooted in the American South but reflecting the universal landscapes of the human soul, and The Reivers, a novel that weaves together rascality and wisdom. We also view major screen adaptations of “The Dead” from Dubliners, The Reivers, and Mrs. Dalloway. (3 credits)

The American Short Story NLIT3364 A 9 weeks, June 2 thru Aug. 1. Noncredit tuition $650. ONLINE Nicholas Birns It has long been observed that the short story, in its brevity and sense of implied significance, is more like a poem than a novel. Readers who feel overwhelmed by the all-embracing quality of a long novel find the enigmas posed by short stories a more satisfying literary experience. How is a short story not just shorter but fundamentally different from a novel? How, therefore, do we read it differently? Reading 20th-century American short stories gives us access to some of our greatest writers, from Ernest Hemingway, James Baldwin, and Willa Cather to Ursula K. Le Guin and Tillie Olsen. It also provides an opportunity to sample the cultural and geographical diversity of the United States. Tracing the changes in style and subject matter elucidates the evolving priorities and preoccupations of American culture from 1900 to 2000. (3 credits)

Thomas Forster Local, healthful, and sustainable food movements are often defined as alternatives to the dominant industrial model of global food supply. This class examines the history that led to present-day systems of food production and distribution. How did the institutional and political power of industrial agriculture become so well established? How did technology come to dominate food production, at the expense of social and environmental approaches? The history of feeding cities and regions, explored through readings, class discussion, and visits from guest speakers, offers insights into the future of food systems design and management. Among the topics examined is the rise of local and regional food systems in the early 21st century. What are the roots of the organic, sustainable, locavore, fair and food justice movements? How do they relate to the rise of food sovereignty movements in the Global South? How does the history of policy relate to the future of food? (3 credits)

Academic Program IRP study groups are noncredit, and there are neither tests nor grades. However, all members of the community take their responsibilities seriously, and student participation in the study groups is an essential element in the continuing success of the institute. In the IRP model, information is created by the students themselves in study groups rather than transferred from teacher to student. Students also have opportunities to explore the broad range of New School courses and to participate in other aspects of university life as part of its diverse student body. The IRP itself sponsors regular public events at The New School, including the annual conference on elder abuse.
