About this course
Murder is committed by individuals and consumed, judged, and processed by societies. It is the ultimate crime and yet an enduring source of fascination. This course will examine murder as an act and an idea across different time periods and cultures, and as means of entertainment, rupture, and social analysis. By examining a variety of artistic, humanities and social science texts, it will explore the history, ethics, social appeal, and civic costs of murder on individuals and on the societies in which they live.
