FYE 101 - Cross-Cultural Encounters

What happens when cultures cross geopolitical, historical and imaginary borders? How do they migrate through both time and place, navigate communication and exchange, and transform their identity and experience of others? Through an exploration of musical, linguistic, artistic, visual, and literary texts, we will examine questions about personal belonging, identity, and home in order to understand the nature of community identity as a dynamic relationship between the shifting boundaries between self and other.
