1 Fall Semester 2007 Tuesday / Thursday 9-9:50 a.m. Devlin Hall 009 Prof. Stephen Schloesser: schloess@bc.edu Teaching Assistants: Casey Beaumier: casey.beaumier.1@bc.edu, Mimi Cowan: cowanmb@bc.edu Amanda Cragen: amanda.cragen.1@bc.edu The course subtitled "Inventing the Subjective Individual" tells the story of early modernities as the invention of subjective individualism, i.e., of the individual rights-bearing subject and not the community as the primary source of conceptual significance and ethical value. IN THEORY, a traditional society is one in which community and communal values have priorty over the individual. Seen this way, modernity completely rejects and negates tradition. IN PRACTICE, however, modernity is always an ongoing negotiation with some elements of inherited (or retrieved) tradition - and so it produces multiple modernities that are often hybridizations of seemingly self-contradictory elements.
