Course summary
This degree focuses on the connections between philosophy, politics and art to explore pressing questions about modern culture and society. You will explore the intimate connections between philosophy, politics and art using material drawn from the histories of art, ideas and political struggle to address problems in modern society. The degree looks at issues such as race, class, gender, the conflicting beliefs and values that characterise contemporary culture and the ongoing legacies of colonialism. By emphasising the historical dimensions of these issues, and by treating both art and philosophy as politically charged, it explores the ways in which our present condition emerged from social structures and struggles in the past. This combination of philosophy, politics and art means that the degree is more directly engaged with philosophy and politics than many history of art courses, and more focused on cultural material and theory than most philosophy and politics courses. Through small seminar groups you'll be able to explore ideas through group discussion and debate. It will also help you learn how to develop and advance arguments and to speak in public.
