Money and Meaning in American Fiction
The module examines the way in which culture has interrogated the relationship between money and America. It explores a wide range of novels, short stories, films and art works: from Frank L. Baum's 'The Wizard of Oz' and F. Scott Fitzgerald's 'Diamond as Big as the Ritz' to recent Science Fiction and NFTs. It reads all of these texts through ongoing debates about what money is and what money does. It explores how money facilitates modernity, freeing us from the constraints of time and space. It also explores the ways in which money creates an atomized and uneven social sphere. The module starts with the first 'Gilded Age' of America and ends in our own moment, a time of bitcoins and golden elevators. -

Moral Philosophy
Moral philosophy is concerned with questions of right and wrong, good and bad, virtue and vice. Such questions are familiar: can it be right to lie to someone to avoid hurting their feelings? Is it okay to favour my friends and family, or should I be impartial in all my decisions? Should I give a portion of my income to charity? Is happiness all that ultimately matters, or might achievements, friendship, or understanding matter for their own sake too? What does it mean to have good character? This module focuses on normative ethics, which explores the prospects for general principles about what is right and wrong, good and bad, virtuous and vicious. For instance, might the fundamental moral principle be that we should always bring about the best outcome? Or that we should always treat people in ways that they could not reasonably reject? Or that we should always act as a virtuous person would? Is it always worse to bring about harm than to allow harm? Do the intentions with which we act bear on whether we did the right thing? Or might there be no general principles about morality? -

Moral Psychology
This module will arm you with the skills and experience to examine and evaluate empirical psychological research on morality. We will examine classic and modern research examining questions like how people decide what is right and wrong, what motivates people to help others, blame others, punish others, and reward others, where morality comes from, and how people resolve moral conundrums. You will consider, critique, and integrate perspectives from psychology, philosophy, biology, neuroscience, development, and other fields that speaks to these timeless questions. You will also develop advanced scientific writing and communication skills. This undergraduate version covers similar topics as the graduate version but involves a shorter and less in depth final paper. -
