Comparative and Digital Humanities at Bucknell

Comparative and Digital Humanities at Bucknell Follow Comparative Humanities at Bucknell for the latest news about our events, courses, students, faculty, and alumni.

Founded in 2000, Bucknell’s Program in Comparative Humanities explores cultural traditions, history, literature, and art from an interdisciplinary perspective. By examining specific topics through several lenses, students learn to compare and analyze different cultures, historical periods, media, and modes of thought in a thorough and multidimensional way. The program’s small size and flexibility

fosters close collaboration between students and faculty and creates opportunities for a highly individualized academic experience.

Just six weeks ago, US marines captured and imprisoned the president of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, and his wife, Cilia Flores. Since then, the Trump administration has claimed rights to Venezuelan oil. As spectacular or strange as these events may seem, this is just the latest episode in more than a century of US military, political, and economic intervention in Latin America. Learn about this long history to better understand the present in conversation with your peers and a panel of local experts. Free pizza for all!
