Religion and Culture

This course examines the intersections of religion and culture. It does not focus on religious texts; instead, its focus is on how religion plays a part in people's everyday lives as a source of meaning and order, as well as by creating a nexus of rituals, communities, spaces, and identities. It analyzes world religion (Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Buddhism and Hinduism) as well as local and indigenous religious traditions from a cultural perspective
