The humanities are defined as those fields that have from earliest times recorded?in script or sound, on canvas or stone?the achievements, ideals, and even failures of humanity. The humanities examine the intellectual foundations and values of political cultures through literature, the languages, the history of ideas, and the theoretical and historical aspects of the fine and visual arts. These studies emphasize the relationships of past and present, a sensitivity to aesthetic expression, an appreciation for the complexities of problems, and the abilities to make critical discernments and to express them with logic and clarity. Students may take courses from the fields of Art History, Classics, English, History, Modern Languages and Cultures, Philosophy, and Religious Studies . Courses from other departments that clearly address the above goals may be taken with approval. View more details on John Carroll University .
