ANTH 267
Memoirs of Africa

Credit: 3 hours.

This course satisfies the General Education Criteria for a
Advanced Composition, and Non-Western Cultures course.

(ANTH 223) Course introduces Africa to students who have read little or nothing about the continent. The course will provide a "user-friendly" approach by offering engagingly written narratives of actual lives lived. The texts are a combination of memoirs written by Africans (about their childhood experiences growing up in various regions of Africa) and by non-African scholars and other authors (including but not limited to anthropologists) who have spent significant amounts of time on the continent. Same as AFST 267. Prerequisite: Completion of Campus Composition I general requirement.
