| COMM 310 - APOCALYPTIC VISIONS IN ANIME, FILM & MEDIA |
|
Apocalyptic visions serve as metaphors for the human condition. This course examines visual representations of apocalyptic events in film, television, literature, art, and media. The evolution and meaning of "apocalypse" is explored from its simple, monotheistic beginnings to its current state--a complex lexicon that points to science, technology, globalism, and mankind as catalysts for the end of the world, and narratives that embody the supernatural, incorporeal, mythical, fantasy, and folklore.
