SO 225 Folklore and Mythology (3)
Myth and folklore play important multiple roles in all human groups. This course looks at the patterns of moral values, social order, customs and religious beliefs as they are expressed through traditional myth and folklore (narratives, songs, jokes, etc.) and modern myth and folklore (through mass media, urban cultures, etc.). The course also explores common themes and provides a variety of theoretical models for explanation of them.
