Synopsis

The "Search" course formally titled "The Search for Values in the Light of Western History and Religion" has been taught for over 50 years at Rhodes College (formerly Southwestern at Memphis). It is a two-year, 12-hour interdisciplinary course on the ideas, beliefs, and historical developments that have shaped Western civilization over the past 5,000 years. The course grew out of developments in the humanities in the 1940s and has continued to address feminism, postmodernism, educational technology, and other new developments. Faculty members trace its evolution and explains how it has dealt with thorny issues such as the debate over the canon, teaching of values, and issues of gender and cultural inclusiveness.
