JDS 313LEC - World Religions In what ways are Judaism, Christianity, and Islam religions–or something else? In this course, we will trace the histories, narratives, temporalities, and practices unique to these three religions. With an eye to global varieties of religious experience, we will examine Judaism from Brooklyn to Iraq, Christianity from Japan to Palestine, and Islam from Tehran to Berlin. Students will develop a deeper understanding of these movements by delving into a wide range of sources including sacred texts, travel journals, literature, and films. This course is the same as RSP 313 and course repeat rules will apply.
