DESCRIPTION
This course focuses on the acquisition of basic knowledge and analytical understanding of religion in general and of six transnational and transcultural religions (so-called 'world religions') in particular: Buddhism, Christianity, Confucianism, Hinduism, Islam, and Judaism. The course offers basic access and in-depth insight into these religions and worldviews. Functioning as the introductory backbone course of religious literacy for several bachelor and minor programs in Religious Studies, it will go beyond a superficial overview.
