The department offers study in the nature and criticism of culture and the arts, chiefly literature, film, drama, music and the visual arts, in the light of guided interdisciplinary enquiry into the social conditions in which thought and expression take shape. The department as a whole provides the kind of academic experience which may have pre-professional value to a cultural and social critic or to a teacher of literature, drama or the arts who wishes to emphasize workshop experience in future teaching. This focus of practical and speculative needs is realized in courses whose overall concern is for the way in which theoretical understandings inform as they are informed by actual practice by artists, critics and thinkers in different conditions. The focus is preserved on the level of term-work in that actual production experience or critical work in cultural activity is recommended as a way of sustaining a reflection on cultural problems and conditions in Canada and elsewhere.
