Same as RELS 293 and ITAL 293. Previously listed as CST 193.Close readings of selected cantos from Dante's "Divine Comedy" will bring into relief the history and culture of the Medieval Mediterranean world. We will discuss various aspects of medieval culture, such as Medieval views on women or the persistence of classical tradition, while learning about Dante's idea of love and relationship to literary models as well as his political views, philosophical thought and theology. While Dante's poetic vision of the afterlife offers a panorama of the medieval world, many of the issues confronting Dante and his age are important to individuals and societies today: social justice, the relationship between church and state, personal and civic responsibility, governmental accountability, literary and artistic influences. No pre-requisites. Taught in English. Course Information: Same as RELS 293 and ITAL 293. Previously listed as CST 193. |
3 hours. Same as RELS 295. May be repeated if topics vary.

The Beginnings of Christianity Today, Christianity is the largest religion in the world: nearly a third of the world's population identifies as Christian. Two thousand years ago, though, there were no Christians. Rather, in the eastern part of the Roman Empire, there was a small group of people who had begun worshipping a deceased Jewish healer and teacher named Jesus. This is the historical moment to which we turn in this course, because it marks the beginnings of Christianity. We will study the people, events, and texts of the first and second centuries that shaped Jesuss small Jewish reform movement into an empire-wide religion known as Christianity, using as our main evidence the letters and stories of the New Testament. Course Information: Same as RELS 295. May be repeated if topics vary. |
