In addition to The Lord of the Rings, course readings will include Tolkien's influential essay On Fairy-Stories and selections from The Silmarillion. Popular views and critiques of Tolkien's Middle-Earth will be expanded and complicated as we discuss how Tolkien's works, fantasy, and fiction generally, can offer escape and consolation to readers, while at the same time reflecting and speaking to the real world and real world issues. 20308 ENGL 222 - C70 Susan Bauman Fiction MTWR 0930 - 1045 Practice in the analysis of fiction.

M. Hopkins MTWR 0930 - 1045 This course studies the work and poetic theories of G. M. Hopkins, the nineteenth century poet who is acknowledged as a major precursor of modern poetry. However, he was unknown and unpublished in his own time because his poetry was quite revolutionary in the context of Victorian poetics. His highly original and exciting experimentation with poetic rhythms and language, and his revitalizing of the English poetic tradition, greatly influenced the development of the new poetry of the twentieth century, and he is today ranked among the major poets in English literature.

21074 FILM 380AN - C40 Philippe Mather French Science Fiction Film MW 1800 - 2045 This course will provide a historical survey of Frenchlanguage science-fiction cinema, examining form, content and cultural context in an effort to identify its unique characteristics. The unique contributions by French filmmakers to science fiction cinema are widely unknown, but greatly influenced the art of science fiction film. Georges Mlis took theatre audiences to the moon for the first time in 1902. Moreover, French science fiction comic strip artist Jean-Claude Mzires was clearly the inspiration for George Lucas' costume and set designers, who kept personal copies of Mzires' Valrian albums in their libraries when working on the Star Wars film series. In addition, a multi-disciplinary conference on French Science Fiction will take place at the university November 2-3, 2012. More information is available on the festival website: www.sf-fr.ca

Chemistry
Robert Petry 31267 CHEM 360 - C01 MWF 0930 - 1020 Quantum Chemistry In quantum chemistry we explore what really governs the behaviour of atoms and molecules. The fundamental principles of quantum mechanics are introduced. The theory is then applied to chemical and spectroscopic problems involving atoms and molecules. A brief introduction to how these calculations may be done on computer (computational chemistry) will also be given.

Classical Studies
31422 CLAS 100 - C01 David Meban Greece and Rome MWF 1130 - 1220 In a 2009 survey of Canadian undergraduate students, 87% of the respondents believed that Gerard Butler led the Spartans at the Battle of Thermopylae. Ninety-one percent of the respondents indicated that Julius Caesar crossed the Rubicon in order to face down Xena Warrior Princess. If you are among these numbers, and are in the midst of giving yourself a congratulatory pat on the back, do the future of Western culture a favour and register for CLAS 100 Introduction to the Civilizations of Greece and Rome. Today's high school and university curriculum sadly neglects the classical world. This course aims to remedy this shortcoming by providing students with an introduction to the history and culture of ancient Greece and Rome. To this end we will discuss important historical developments such as the emergence of civilization in Greece, the expansion of Classical Athens, and the growth and consolidation of the Roman empire. But we will also devote a considerable portion of the course to an examination of other topics such as (but not limited to) Athenian democracy, Roman leisure, artistic production, religious practice, and daily life. 30086 CLAS 150 - C01 David Meban Latin Language I MWF 1330 - 1420 Barrack Obama, Mahatma Gandhi, Sigmund Freud, and Will Ferrell. Beyond their extraordinary contributions to the political, scientific and artistic life of the last one hundred years, one thing unites these individuals: as undergraduates they all majored in Latin. No doubt these cultural giants were well aware of Latin's coolness factor, and the street credibility it confers. But they also realized there was no skirting one undeniable and universal truth: success in this life and the next depends on one's knowledge of Latin. Be forewarned: learning Latin is not for the weak, humble, or pathetic. Many who register will be overwhelmed with self doubt as they are ground to dust under the wheels of my chariot, distraught by the peals of laughter reverberating throughout the classroom. But for those who endure there awaits one sure reward: a mitochlorian count that is off the charts. 30821 CLAS 160 - C01 TBA Greek Language I MWF 0930 - 1020 In this class, students will quickly master the exotic alphabet of the ancient Greeks and learn the basic

31694 CATH 200 - C01 Benjamin Fiore, SJ Introduction to Catholic Studies MWF 0830 - 0920 The goal of Catholic Studies 200 is to introduce students to the range of methodologies and topics that the study of Catholicism includes. It will equip students with the tools they will need to understand Catholic history, culture, and theological disciplines. The main areas of study will be scripture, history of Christianity, systematic theology, art and literature, and contemporary topics and issues. The methodologies will be biblical, historical, philosophical, and comparative. 33982 CATH 290AC - C01 TBA Science & Ethics with the view from a Roman Catholic perspective MWF 1130 - 1220 Scientific breakthroughs have indelibly changed our lives, yet one seldom reflects on what these changes do to us as human beings. This course will survey different lines of anthropological perspectives, including that of the Catholic Church. With these in mind, the implications of contemporary scientific and technological issues will be discussed. These include topics such as reproductive technologies, stem cell research, the human genome project, human enhancement technologies, ecology and internet-related matters.

grammar and vocabulary necessary to take the rst steps in the language memorably used by Homer, Herodotus, Sappho, Plato, Sophocles, and Euripides, as well as the New Testament. Rather than be "barbarians" (from the ancient word for "people who do not speak Greek"), students will be able to say: "It was Greek to me!" 33175 CLAS 200 - C01 Deborah Hoffmann Greek Mythology TR 1130 - 1245 Are the myths of the ancient Greeks "true" in any way? Why are we still fascinated by them? In this course we will study many of the most famous stories from antiquity, with a focus on learning the myths from original source material where possible; understanding the different forms of myth; recognizing recurring motifs and themes; exploring the relationship of myth to culture, religion, history, archeology, and art; and observing how myths have evolved and how they have been reinterpreted up to the present day. 31219 CLAS 210 - C01 TBA Greek and Roman Epic TR 1300 - 1415 A study of the works of Homer, Vergil, and Ovid, in English translation, with particular emphasis on their mythological content.

This new poetics, with its emphasis on the lyric as the essence of poetry, was to affect the course and development of literature to the present day. 33194 ENGL 338AF - C01 Leanne Groeneveld 33848 THST 381AA - C01 Theatre of the Absurd W 1900 - 2145 In this course, we will study works spanning the career of Nobel Laureate Harold Pinter: the master of menace, the crafter of the Pinter Pause, and the originator of the Pinteresque. In Pinters plays, the everyday innocuous rapidly degenerates to become the very strange and ominous. A woman on holiday visits the remaining members of her husbands family, who offer her an alternative life of domestic bliss. A lodger at a seaside bed and breakfast is thrown a birthday party by the elderly female proprietor and two mysterious guests. A manipulative tramp is given temporary lodging by down-and-out brothers in their depressing hovel of a home. A group of friends enjoy a cocktail party while outside the army marches, arresting their family members, friends, and colleagues. *Warning: you will leave this course completely unsettled and with your faith in theatre restored.* 31690 ENGL 371AE - C01 Susan Bauman The Literary Gothic TR 1130 - 1245 This course explores, at an advanced level, the
FaLL 2012 8

development of one of the most popular, and infamous, genresthe Gothic novel and its connections to Romanticism and its later transformations. In these texts, desire, violence, monstrosity, terror, and horror combine to push the boundaries of what can and cannot be represented in polite society. Beginning in the eighteenth century, this course traces the development of the Gothic from horror to romance. Students will start by examining both the masculine tradition of the horror Gothic, and the feminine tradition of the terror gothic, which challenges and replies to it; they will also consider some philosophical and aesthetic theories which shaped contemporary readers experiences of the Gothic. Next the course shifts to the study of some nineteenth century practitioners of the Gothic, in order to examine how they reinterpret traditional Gothic elements in new ways. The authors expose the reader to the irrational, unknown or inexplicable in the self and in society through their more internalized and psychological fictions. By tracing the Gothic tradition through various manifestations in England and America, students will consider the universality of the human emotionsof fear, awe at the sublime, terror, and horrorwhich permeate Gothic narratives. Since all of these texts are also interconnected in their use of Gothic conventions, this course will also be a study in intertextuality: students will be analyzing these novels responses to each other as well as to their particular periods and contexts. 33206 ENGL 386AE - C01 Christian Riegel Literature and the Environment TR 1130 - 1245 This course examines trends in Canadian and American environmental literature, focusing on work in the last 100 years or so, and includes such topics as nature poetry and the environment, aesthetics, gender, poetics, and prose approaches. We will be centrally concerned with what the trends have been over the past century and in how contemporary writers relate to a larger tradition. A key focus will be writing in the last 30 years. 31423 ENGL 388 - C01 Susan Bauman Methods - Literary Genre MWF 1330 - 1420 An exploration of methods used in study of literary genres. Students will be required to write essays that analyze literature according to generic approaches. 33236 ENGL 440AD - C01 Christian Riegel 33235 ENGL 808AD - C01 Canadian Poetry Since 1970 T 1730 - 2020 This course examines a variety of poets from the 1970s onwards, including firmly established as well as new voices. A broad spectrum of poetic forms, styles, and philosophies are represented in the readings. The purpose of the study of this corpus of poems is not so much to determine the predominating trends, though this will be an issue we will raise, but to explore how a varied group of poets approach the question of finding a meaningful poetic to write with in the contemporary era.

Geography
Louis Awanyo 33466 GEOG 100 - L01 World Regional Geography TR 1000 - 1115 This course has three major goals. First, it provides students with insights into the nature of geography, and the fundamental skills and techniques required by geographers, including map and statistical interpretation skills. Second, the course gives a theoretical overview of the global patterns of a variety of phenomena, including landforms, climates, population, and standards of living. Third, the course provides insights into some of the major regions of the world. The physical and human geography of each region is examined in order to provide an all-encompassing knowledge of each place. In-depth analyses of prominent issues are undertaken in each region, such as the benefits and potential problems for the European Union, the enigma of tourism in the Caribbean, and the implications of Latin American debt. 33467 GEOG 316 - L01 Louis Awanyo Third World Geography TR 1300 - 1415 This course explores the processes that have shaped and continue to shape the region called The Third World from a development focus. Historical and contemporary processes of colonization and globalization, and their impacts on this region, are evaluated to help explain the similarities and differences in the geography of development (or underdevelopment) of the Third World. A variety of development theories and their explanation of development, or lack of development, are critically explored. Specific topics, including agriculture, industrialization, population, gender, and urbanization are examined in order to provide systematic insights into this broadly similar, but also heterogeneous, region.

the few European colonial powers who took advantage of southern winds and ocean currents. Although not intended to be a comprehensive survey on the global history of slavery, this course will introduce students to problems and themes in the history of the Americas: how historians make sense of the practice of slavery and how this peculiar institution has shaped different geographies and populations in the western world. 32231 HIST 116 - C01 Allison Fizzard Issues in World History TR 1130 - 1245 An exploration of major themes, periods and events in World History, this course introduces students to the methods and sources of historical study, familiarizes them with significant historical developments in global history, and encourages them to make comparisons between civilizations. 30985 HIST 200 - C01 Stephen Kenny Canada to 1867 TR 0830 - 0945 From the time of European contact Canada developed from a colony to a country on the threshold of real independence. New France needed the expertise of the First Nations people already established in the St. Lawrence Valley. Then by force of arms and military conquest Canada was transferred to the British. How they governed and Canadians responded concludes with Confederation. The trials, tribulations and achievements of these years can tell much about how Canadians are now. Political, economic and cultural issues as well as the conflict of French and English speakers are among the important fields to be examined in this class. 30724 HIST 234 - C01 Dawn Flood The United States 1865-1941 MWF 1330 - 1420 Topics covered include Western expansion and development; growth of the urban industrial order; immigration and ethnicity; African Americans; gender issues; society and culture; regionalism; politics; emergence of the United States as a world power. 31898 HIST 239 - L01 Mark Anderson History of the Cowboy TR 1130 - 1245 The cowboy has served as a central masculine archetype in the Americas since horses were introduced. Not only of historical significance empirically in Argentina, Mexico, and the United States, culturally the cowboy influence has reached from Hollywood to the White House, the Pampas to Chihuahua. This course explores why. 30723 HIST 265- C01 Allison Fizzard Early Middle Ages 300-1100 TR 1430 - 1545 This course covers the emergence of medieval Europe out of Roman, Germanic, and Christian influences. Topics include the Viking attacks, the rise of the Christian Church, the decline and revival of urban life, the King Arthur controversy, and the development of kingdoms and empires.

33207 HIST 114 - C01 Dawn Flood Issues in History of Americas: The Transatlantic Slave Trade MWF 1030 - 1120 The practice of slavery is as old as recorded history and has affected all regions of the world, particularly those that border the transatlantic world. This course focuses on the history of the transatlantic slave trade, especially as it shaped the development of the western hemisphere during the fifteenth through nineteenth centuries. Three geographic areas will provide comparative context in which the modern history of slavery will be analyzed: (1) The importation and expansion of slavery in the Caribbean, which helped European powers develop and maintain a powerful colonial presence in the New World. (2) The importation of slaves to the American colonies before the revolution and the expansion of the practice in especially the southern United States after the international trade in slaves ended there in 1808. (3) The development and eventual limitations of the southern slave trade. Unlike the historically more familiar middle passage of slaves to the Caribbean or North America, this trade centered around Brazil primarily, and linked West Central Africa to South America via

The Renaissance introduced new ways of seeing and depicting the natural world. The Reformation fragmented the Christian Church and led to an era of religious wars. The voyages of Columbus set the stage for the European conquest of the Americas. The rulers of Europe fought for dominance at home and at sea. Copernicus, Galileo and others began to explore new ways of understanding the physical world. This course will probe the history of these events and examine their relationship to one another. 30217 HIST 316 - C01 Stephen Kenny Canadian American Relations R 1430 - 1720 In investigating the shared history of Canada and the United States this course will attempt to challenge some familiar stereotypes. Are Americans ignorant of Canada? Do Canadians have a sense of smug superiority to Americans? How is Canada understood by Americans and how do Canadians understand them? Are we friends or competitors? Given the enormous economic, demographic and cultural imbalance can we be both? These and similar questions have often been posed over the long history of the Canadian-American relationship. This class delves into Canadas historical ties with the United States by lectures, readings, discussion and significant student presentations. 31897 HIST 348 - L01 Mark Anderson Imperialism in Latin America T 1800 - 2045 This course investigates the several waves of imperialism that have swept the region, beginning with Christopher Columbus in 1492.

This course will examine these and other so-called contemporary issues by placing them within their historical context, beginning in the 18th century and continuing through to today, and by studying what political thinkers, essayists, and even poets, novelists, and artists of the past had to say about these issues. We will look at how the world-views of our ancestors have shaped the world we live in today, with the hope that by understanding the past we are not condemned to repeat it. Some guest speakers will be invited to offer in-depth consideration of some of these issues.

Students will also learn to identify and avoid the most common mistakes in reasoning. The course provides students with reasoning skills that are useful in whichever disciplines and careers they may pursue (such as law or business). More generally, Critical Thinking empowers students to formulate and express their own ideas and arguments well, building their capacity to act as citizens and as full members of communities to which they belong. 33176 PHIL 211 - C01 Ann Ward Later Greek Philosophy TR 1130 - 1245 This course explores the main philosophical ideas and concepts developed by Aristotle and later Greek thinkers, including Epicurus, the Stoics, the Sceptics and Plotinus. We will address a wide variety of issues concerning knowledge, morality, pleasure, beauty, matter and evil. These themes will be approached in their interconnectedness. We will constantly want to see what kind of view about the ultimate nature of reality underlies specific answers given to the more particular questions, and how, a specific view about knowledge, for instance, determines a specific outlook of ones moral beliefs. 33179 PHIL 241 - C01 Anna Mudde Philosophy of Science MWF 0930 - 1020 A critical examination of some of the problems of the nature of scientific theory; the status of scientific laws, induction and the foundation of probability, confirmation, analysis of causality, and the nature of scientific explanation. 30840 PHIL 242 - L01 Roger Petry Philosophy of Religion TR 1000 - 1115 This course examines contemporary philosophical debates about religious claims including the existence of God, religious experience, and the role of faith in relation to reason. In doing so, modern formulations of traditional objections to these claims, such as the problem of evil, natural accounts of religion, and the meaningfulness of religious language will be examined. Other topics including religious pluralism, the relationship between religion and ethics, and religious practices such as prayer will also be explored.

In addition to learning how to approach and understand a major philosophical work, a concern of the class will be to give the student some idea of why Hegel has had such an enormous impact on contemporary philosophy. 33180 PHIL 332 - C01 Robert Piercey 33181 PHIL 435AG - C01 Philosophy of History W 1430 - 1715 In Philosophy 332, well reflect critically on the study of history. Well examine a number of philosophical questions that are raised by the kind of thinking that historians do, and well ask how the study of history might be related to other important philosophical themes. The course will be divided into three parts. The first will focus on the epistemology of historythat is, on whether and to what extent we can acquire knowledge of the past. Among other things, well ask what it might mean to explain an historical event, and whether historians can be objective. The second part of the course will address so-called speculative historiansthat is, those who attribute a meaning or purpose to history as a whole. As an example, well read Hegels Lectures on the Philosophy of History. Finally, in the third part of the course, well examine what might be called existential approaches to history. Our main text for this part of the course will be Nietzsches On the Uses and Disadvantages of History for Life.

33191 THST 200 - C01 Leanne Groeneveld Theatre History MWF 0930 - 1020 Theatre Studies 200 introduces students to the history of the practice of theatre, beginning in the fifth century BCE and progressing through to the twenty-first century. We will discuss the development of the theatre as a collaborative art form relying on the contribution of many artists, architects, playwrights, actors, directors, designers, and technicians. Discussing the evolution of these various roles, as well as the changing stages on which theatre has been performed, we will answer such burning questions as: How did Shakespeare's acting troupe get by without a director?; Why were performing dogs so popular on the nineteenth-century stage?; Why do Method Actors have so many psychological problems?; Why do actors in small avantgarde companies insist on harassing me when I'm in the audience, touching me, talking to me, making me uncomfortable? 33285 THST 252 - C01 Leanne Groeneveld Critical Approaches to Theatre TR 1000 - 1115 What are the characteristics of a good play? What does good mean, anyway? Should plays follow a clear formula? Should theatre appeal to the mind, to the heart, or to the senses? Should the stage be used as a place of instruction or as a place of play, where anything goes and morality can and should (if only temporarily) be discarded? What should or shouldnt be the rights and responsibilities of theatre practitioners and their audiences? What is the relationship between individual and collective performance and identity, gender, community? How have larger critical movements influenced the theatre, and how have theatre practitioners influenced larger critical movements in their turn? In Theatre Studies 252, we will examine, discuss, and debate these and other questions/problems as we survey performance theories and methodologies from those of the Greeks to those of today. The premise of this class is that theatre should not just be something we doit should also be something we examine and theorize and debate, from a position of familiarity with and understanding of its rich critical and practical history. 33848 THST 381AA - C01 Leanne Groeneveld 33194 ENGL 338AF - C01 Comedies of Menace: Pinter W 1900 - 2145 In this course, we will study works spanning the career of Nobel Laureate Harold Pinter: the master of menace, the crafter of the Pinter Pause, and the originator of

the Pinteresque. In Pinters plays, the everyday innocuous rapidly degenerates to become the very strange and ominous.
