CLWR 1810 - Introduction to the Study of Religion
What is “religion” and how do we study it? The answer may seem obvious but it’s not. In this course, we explore religious practices in multiple religious traditions and examine the relationship between religion and a range of other social factors–social class, gender, ethnicity, politics, among others. Along the way, we will also reflect on broader comparative and methodological questions posed by scholars who have studied religion from diverse perspectives (historical, psychological, phenomenological, and sociological).
