Storytelling Without Words
6 or 12 classes
Human beings have always told stories, whether to explain their world, convey some deeper truth, or merely to entertain. Stories generally use words. But this course will look at some of the ways in which stories can be told by non-verbal means. Through visual art, in a single picture or a series of them. Through maps, diagrams, and cartoons. Through dance. Through tone poems in music. Through ritual. Through film. Through any medium that can engage us with a character or idea, and take us on a journey to a different place.
