Members of The College of St. Scholastica's Dignitas Program produce this work in recognition of the intricacies of the guest/host relationship. Using popular and celebrated film, literature and other mass media, we develop a deeper understanding of interaction. We explore hospitality from human and non-human perspectives, through fiction and non-fiction, philosophy, theology, and psychology. What are the pleasures and dangers in the role of the stranger? What are the assumptions and liberties of the host? How do the guest and host roles relate to the designations of 'the self' and 'the other'? How do we know when we are the host or the guest? Is it possible to mistake or underestimate one's role? How might diversity, privilege, conflict, and assumption affect the guest/host relationship? Our work seeks a clearer picture of stewardship, intentional being, and the potential for conscious ambassadorship in a complex, multi-dimensional world.
