Titel 1 Shit Storms

What is a shitstorm? Why do they happen and what can be done about them?
The course focuses on apology and apologia. What are the strategies that a person, country or company can employ when they need to defend, or apologize for, their actions?

Along the way, students are introduced to rhetoric as a concept as well as analytical vocabulary specific to apology and apologia: kairos, evasion, mortification etc.

Material will be a state apologies, celebrity apologies, political apologies and even the wonderful genre of youtube apologies. If possible, the teacher will focus on a number of recent shitstorms as well as some classic ones, preferably with a focus on Great Britian.

Students will end the course by making their own apology videos, showcasing what they have learned.
