This course is co-hosted by the College of Arts and the Hunterian Museum combining an introduction to contemporary cultural practices with an analysis of their historical, cultural and socio-economic roots. With Scotland as the primary example, the course enables you to
- study a variety of art forms (theatre, music, dance, visual arts) via trips to performance venues and museums;
- undertake significant hands-on research with artefacts both at the Hunterian and in Special Collections at the University of Glasgow; and
- participate in class discussions of theories, methodologies, and interpretation of cultural practices.
