IDS 120 LAUGHTER AND THE HUMANITIES

From Aristophanes to Family Guy, laughter has been an integral part of the arts from the earliest works to the present. This course introduces the Humanities, including literature, music, film, and the visual and performing arts, with an examination of how the arts use approaches like parody, satire, slapstick, and dark humor to express, entertain, instruct, and subvert.
