    Description
    The course is an examination of the Industrial Revolution and some of its most important consequences, positive and negative. It also looks at the second generation of Romanticism in music, art, and literature, in part as a response to industrialization, and the way the disillusionments of Romanticism led into the age of realism in the arts. Not open to students with credit in GENT 22 . Portions of instruction may be offered online; may also be offered fully online.
