Objectives
The aim of the course is to introduce the students through various taboos - or phenomena considered to be taboo - to communication themes and scenes that are actively present in everyday discourse (minority, politics, subcultures, power, sexuality, grief, etc.), but with these related social norms and communication strategies are quite divergent and often create tension, for example we cannot talk about them, we cannot look at them, we cannot hear them. If we initiate public discourses/thinking about these topics - even within the framework of an institutional course - then the students can experience the usefulness of an understanding analysis of communication, as well as its positive consequences in relation to phenomena for which individual taboo discourse methods are developed, so that they cannot or very difficultly start a dialogue . In the classes, we examine different types of social/communication acts (such as habits, misunderstandings, fear of sanctions, assumptions, rumours, human games) as communications, and we observe that the layers of meaning that emerge during the analysis – body, illness, relational taboos, deviance, etc. - how they can influence our understanding of our everyday world.
