10 EWCAtional OHO PiCTVPK the complete courses in physics and chemistry do for the Sciences It is true that the world has changed and the work men do has changed but the mind that created the pyramid is essentially the same mind that created the sky scraper In a way we are all thousands of years old about 500000 years old the time which has elapsed since human beings like ourselves first appeared on earth And there is another sense in which we are all older than we think For a very long time man had a fulltime job just keeping himself alive on the earth Then may be ten thousand years ago we began to ask questions about outselvest who we were what we were supposed to be doing on earth where we were headed And we began to figure out answers to these questions first scratching them on the walls of caves or dancing or singing them finally writing them down About 1000 years before Christ our Western civilization began to keep records of its questions about life and its answers So in another sense you and I began about 1000 BC For some of the ideas and feelings of early Western man govern our minds today Mans ideas and feelings about life recorded in certain definite ways make up the Humanities The record of these ideas and feelings makes up this course in the Humanities Literature drama music painting and sculp ture architecture the dance these are some of the ways in which Western man has recorded his hopes and fears his joys and sorrows his vast guesses about his place in life these are the Humanities you will study in this course Another way to describe the Humanities is to say that they deal with matters that never go out of style basic questions basic answers basic ideas basic feelings Human beings of today arent really much different from human beings of another time All men have been interested delighted scared and puzzled by life and the world around them In this course you will study the ways in which they have translated their reactions into forms that have lasted books musical sounds sculpture colors on canvas structures in stone or marble Whats the good of studying what a lot of dead people have thought and felt What will the Humanities do for you The real answer is that eventually as you study and enjoy the Humanities youll feel a little less lost a little more at home in this puzzling and rather scary world But you wont realize that until some years have passed There is another answert the Humanities ask and sometimes answera large number of fundamental questions that con cern all of us as thinking human beings What are we what does it mean to me a man or woman Why are we on this earth what is our purpose here Is one way of living as good as another or is there one best way to live Are we masters of our own lives or are we driven by fate These questions may not have occurred to you yet but they will The man who has never thought about them will always feel lost The Humanities will help to save you from that lost feeling Another thing the Humanities do for us is help us make sense out of the confusion that life often seems to be Often we are not quite sure where we fit in or where we are headed But from a beautiful summer day or from a piece of music or from being with a friend or from praying to God we suddenly get the feeling that everything does make sense that we do fit in Now the Humanities can give us the same feeling by showing us how we fit into certain unchanging patterns in human life how each of us is part of some thing So far we have learned that the Humanities ask and try to answer certain basic questions that they chal lenge us to think up our own answers that they reveal to us certain underlying patterns beneath lifes apparent confusion and that they help to express our emotions for us and so release them In all these respects the Humanities are unlike the Sciences The Sciences are concerned with giving us exact information They enable us to understand and control nature But there is no rivalry between the Humanities and Sciences They represent different approaches to life but both are the result of mans refusal to live without thought or aspiration Both mark us off from the animals In embarking on this course you yourself will become part of this long tradition You will study roan and so arrive at a better understanding of yourself And you will discover that in this great drama
