AMST 903 01 (10237) Th 1.30-3.20 Fall 2009 What is the relationship between knowledge produced in the university and the circulation of ideas among a broader public, between academic expertise on the one hand and non-professionalized ways of knowing and thinking on the other? What is possible? This seminar provides an introduction to various institutional relations and to the modes of inquiry, interpretation, and presentation by which practitioners in the humanities seek to invigorate the flow of information and ideas among a public more broadly conceived than the academy, its classrooms, and its exclusive readership of specialists. Topics may include public history, museum studies, oral and community history, public art, documentary film and photography, public writing and educational outreach, and the socially conscious performing arts. In addition to core readings and discussions, the seminar includes presentations by several practitioners who are currently engaged in different aspects of the Public Humanities. A highly flexible term project-including possibilities for an internship with a regional museum, archive, gallery, or media outlet-allows students to explore the substantive and logistical challenges of public intellectual work in the genre or form that most interests them. Participants also collaborate in developing and beginning to organize a Public Humanities program of installations and events to be held during the following academic year. Required for the Master's Degree in Public Humanities.
