Top ranking US university offers Game of Thrones course

BERKELEY (Web Desk) –  The University of California, Berkeley offers a new course on Game of Thrones, which is part of the Film Studies program and will revolve solely around this one show.

Uproxx reported that the course aims to dive deep into the controversial themes of sex, violence, and power, so discussions should be lively. The reading list for the course includes famous philosophers Rousseau and Foucault.

The course description promises to link up the show’s politics to reality as well, while the university also hosts a Westeros-friendly exhibit of dire wolves (the extinct species favored by George R.R. Martin in his creations).
