Course Descriptions

The discovery of number altered the evolution of human consciousness. Among the unforeseen consequences is the fragmentation of modern scientific knowledge into an ever-increasing array of hyper specializations. The primal and archaic sense of wholeness now seems to be an almost impossible dream. And yet, even so, the artistic impulse to speak to the whole of things continues to burn brightly. This course will examine the integral cosmologies of some traditional and contemporary works of literature as a way of wondering over the possibility that new planetary epics are emerging in our time.  Priority to PCC students
