L51 Korean 3340Topics in East Asian Religions: Faith and Salvation in East Asia: Pure Land Buddhism3.0 Units
Description:This course is an introduction to Pure Land Buddhism, one of the most popular forms of Buddhism all over East Asia, from its inception to the 21st century. Centered around the worship of a buddha called Amitabha (C. Amituo; K. Amita; J. Amida), Pure Land Buddhism is a complex tradition that during its long history has included sophisticated visualization practices, simple vocalizations, elaborated doctrinal discussions, and apocalyptic worldviews. In this course, students will adopt a multidisciplinary approach and explore the history, literature, art and practices of Pure Land Buddhism in China, Korea and Japan. In particular, the course will focus on the relationship between devotionalism, practice and salvation; and on discourses about human nature and their implications in terms of approaches to Buddhism. In other words, what do we do when the world as we know it seems to be ending? Students will read primary sources drawn from a wide range of genres - meditation manuals, letters, canonical scriptures and hagiographic narratives. They will familiarize themselves with the most important figures, deities and texts of the Pure Land traditions in East Asia, and they will study the arts and material culture of Pure Land Buddhism, one of the richest in East Asia. No prior coursework on Buddhism or East Asia is required. Fulfills premodern elective for EALC major.

L51 Korean 390EALC Seminar: Kitchen, Studio, Factory: Making in East Asia3.0 Units
Description:How do artisans approach the task of making? If different cultures of making exist, what forms do they take and why? In this course, students will explore these and other questions concerning the central human activity that is the production of material objects. From a Korean rice wine brewer to a Japanese clockmaker and to the Shanzhai cellphone manufacturers, makers in East Asia have distinguished themselves as skillful practitioners throughout history. The aim of this course is to understand their ways of production -- and how these, in turn, evolved alongside broader changes in society and culture. The course begins by appreciating the challenges of studying making cultures and the importance of material, hands-on research, which involves, for instance, cooking with historical recipes. The course then investigates the history of artisanship in relation to social structures and statecraft and the many ways in which it unfolded in Korea, Japan, and China and across various artifacts, from kimchi and porcelain to steam engines and Van Gogh paintings. For the term project, students have the option of reworking a historical recipe or artifact from East Asia before the modern era. During this process, students will learn by doing and explore the tacit knowledge involved in the creation and maintenance of craft practices. This course is primarily for sophomores and juniors with a major or minor in the Department of East Asian Languages & Cultures. Other students may enroll with permission. No prior knowledge of East Asia is required. Fulfills premodern elective for EALC major.

L51 Korean 420Nature, Technology, and Medicine in Korea3.0 Units
Description:This course examines the cultural history of modern Korea with a focus on science, technology, and medicine. From about 1500 to the present, a number of hugely consequential things happened in Korea that have been called revolutionary-or what historians dub "early modern" and "modern." Confucian kings planned large-scale projects that changed nature, rustic scholars made inventories of flora and fauna, colonial Koreans became biologists, nurses, and "Edisons," and in North and South Korea, new professionals created distinctive-and in some cases, globally-competitive-regimes of knowing, making, and healing. Students will interrogate these developments as an opportunity to revisit the history of modernity, which has been told predominantly from the perspective of the West. What does it mean to be "modern" in Korea? How did that modernity intersect with Korean science, technology, and medicine? Students will find and articulate their own answers by writing the final research paper. Recommended to have taken Korean Civilization or equivalent course that provides basic working knowledge of Korean history. Course also counts as an EALC capstone course. Undergraduates enroll in the 400-level section; 500-level section is for graduate students only. Fulfills modern elective for EALC major. Prerequisite: junior level or above or permission of instructor.

Home/Ident

A course may be either a “Home” course or an “Ident” course.

A “Home” course is a course that is created, maintained and “owned” by one academic department (aka the “Home” department). The “Home” department is primarily responsible for the decision making and logistical support for the course and instructor.

An “Ident” course is the exact same course as the “Home” (i.e. same instructor, same class time, etc), but is simply being offered to students through another department for purposes of registering under a different department and course number.

Students should, whenever possible, register for their courses under the department number toward which they intend to count the course. For example, an AFAS major should register for the course "Africa: Peoples and Cultures" under its Ident number, L90 306B, whereas an Anthropology major should register for the same course under its Home number, L48 306B.
