Spring 2013 COML classes

New courses for spring 2013:

Want to live artfully? Justly? Can we do both? Think about:

COML 109b: The Art of Living: Imagination and the Just Life [hum] [wi]
Explores whether one can live well without living justly? Live justly without living well? What does justice ask of us? From Plato to Zhuangzi to Nabokov's Lolita, we examine the subjective preconditions for living justly; knowledge, imagination, love, empathy, freedom, and responsibility. (Cross-listed as a RECS elective in Russian Studies!)
