RELI 380 – Encountering Religion

What is religion? How has religion been understood and explored, past and present? What are the different scholarly approaches to understanding and explaining religion in all its diversity? How has the academic conversation about religion, what it is and how to study it, changed over the years? In tackling these questions, we will read and discuss texts from a variety of religious studies approaches to help illuminate the complexity of studying the phenomenon we call religion.
