Six Pretty Good Buildings

HUMS 025
Prof. Michael Faciejew
Providing an intensive introduction to studying the humanities at Yale, this course is anchored by six trans-historical spatial models: the Capitol, the Library, the Ship, the Factory, the Museum, and the House. Covering a range of historical epochs and geographies as well as genres and media these six building “types” provide a foundation for questions about how societies and individuals organize value systems.
