5510 Religions Of The World (3)

This course is designed to introduce graduate students to the major religions of the world, as well as to selected small-group religions. Our goal will be to learn to appreciate the similarities and differences in the structure and history of these religions. A primary focus will be on using the categories of the history of religions to examine and analyze the various dimensions of religion (e.g., historical, sociological, ritual, mythological, aesthetic). In addition, methodological issues of comparison will be addressed.
