Description Conversation between different cultures requires the description of stories. Knowing a culture’s stories helps one to understand that culture and talk with its people. Sometimes a culture borrows a story from another culture or writes a story about its encounter with that other culture. (For example, American stories about Asia or Asian stories about America). To help students talk about important ideas with people from other cultures, this course examines stories shared across cultures and stories one culture tells about another.
