PY3066 Life Stories
PY2043 Abnormal and Clinical Psychology

How do persons make sense of illness and deviance? What is the role of culture and context in how we understand persons and their experiences? One of the centerpieces of our trip is a visit to the Human Library where students will have the opportunity to listen to the life stories of persons who have experienced significant challenges in their lives such as mental illness or a need to live outside society. But we will do more than just think about individual persons, we will place persons within their social and historical context in order to think about lives and illness as bound in time and place. In our conversations with experts, dinners with locals, and exploration of Christiana, we will think about how persons make sense of themselves and their experience within concrete sociocultural contexts.
