教育目標

What is a city? What were the conditions as well as socio-historical contexts in which modern cities came about? How does the formation and transformation of the urban space have impacts to the people living in that city? What are the relationships between a city and its people, along with their feelings, consciousness, identities, professions, social conduct, consumption, and all the various practices? How do cultural practices like movie and literature reveal a city; how do they help us shape ideas of this or that city? They are all questions that concern virtually us all. Humankind in the 21st century is increasingly becoming a species living in a highly compact and complex space that we call “city”, yet there always seems to be so much we need to know of living in the city. And we learn of the city mostly from images, yet the relations between images and the city are often underexplored. In this class we explore topics regarding urban culture and urban life from cultural and social scientific perspectives. We take examples from some of the significant world cities today, including New York, Paris, Chicago, Los Angeles, and Las Vegas; we also look at the cities we are more familiar with, like Taichung and Taipei. These cities may concern us in their own ways; we may be born/raised there, we may have traveled or lived there for some time, or their social history involves how we perceive what a “modern/worldly city” should be about. Throughout the semester we look at the city in relations to subject matters like gender, migration, and subculture. With all the examples as well as film appreciation in correspondence with certain topics, we try and understand how cultural production reflects on and interact with urban culture and social change.
