Dr. Goli Bagheri of Pima Community College adapted Persian and other non-Greek, non-Roman mythology into the Humanities 131 (Mythology) course. This outlines the structure of the wider mythology course and explains the underpinnings. It does not include full lesson plans.
Through lecture, small-group activities, in-class discussion, and web-delivered content and assessment, and by using the semantic/syntactic approach to genre, introduced by Rick Altman, as its guiding theory, this course will examine the substitutions and syntax of early modern “Turk” plays and the evolution of tropes—that alternatingly value alterity and perpetuate bias—in representations of the Middle East in Early Modern England.
