REL 515 - Sacred Texts of Global Religions
This course supplements “Introduction to Global Religions” by focusing attention on the scriptures, or sacred texts, of religious communities worldwide. The class will examine the history, content, structure, sacralization process, and in-group meaning of the primary texts from each religious tradition - seeking to develop a broader understanding of those communities, cultures, and concerns from which the sacred texts arose. The world’s great religions have produced many of the world’s great texts, and this course seeks to investigate the latter so as to better comprehend the former.
