BODY, SOUL AND PERSON IN THE EIGHTEENTH CENTURY
This course examines what it means to be a person in the eighteenth century, and how women and men, Afro-Britons and whites express themselves. We explore the role of soul, mind, and body as aspects of personhood and how different genres (philosophical essay, autobiography, and imaginative fiction) demarcate that state.
