Study theoretical and methodological texts as they interact with the literary, visual, and performing arts. Emphasis falls on current theoretical approaches from the 20th and 21st century, while artistic materials may come from any period. Approaches seminars develop an understanding of multiple theoretical discourses in the world of the arts, with an emphasis on the difference, and divergence, of approaches between them. ATM Approaches seminars assess the particular historical and cultural contexts from which the theories arose, and examine the implications of applying these approaches to other cultures and regions.
