No longer offered. It’s in Waterloo’s scanned calendars from 1992–93 to 1994–95 (before that, 1987–88 to 1991–92 used the number for Man and Nature and Nature: Art, Myths and Folk- tore); the 1995–96 to 2023–24 calendars are on ucalendar.

This course explores the symbolic representation of nature in art, architecture, myth and literature from a multi-cultural perspective. The ideas about sacred spaces and environments will also be discussed.

As printed in the 1992–93 to 1994–95 calendars, read by OCR; the scanned page is the original. Later calendars (1995–96 on) aren’t on uwloo.
