CLWR 4430 - Women and Religion
Examines images and roles of women in major world religious traditions. We will study religious ideology and its role in shaping social life, the many ways in which women exercise authority in religious traditions, the ways in which women have been innovative in those traditions, and the ways in which women have reinterpreted and re-appropriated patriarchal texts and structures. Students will apply the insights gained in this examination to a project of their own choosing, which should result in a research paper. Students will also have opportunities to increase their understanding of their own religious choices and of religious phenomena more generally.
