In this course, we will consider a variety of texts in which the lines between good and evil are blurred, making such categorization difficult. Good and evil will be considered in different locations and in different time periods, at both the microscopic level of characters (heroes and villains) and/or at the macroscopic level (utopias and dystopias). Readings on the ethical challenges characters and societies face, and the decisions they make will be used as the basis for oral and written debates in French.
