HUMN 2120 - Comparative Religion

(3 CR, 3T + 0L)

To gain a familiarity with the major religious traditions in the world, you will examine various religious traditions and practices, focusing on the similarities and differences between their conception of the Divine and different religious conceptions of what it means to live the “good life.” You will alternate between (a) reading secondary texts that compare religious traditions from an “outsider” perspective and (b) reading primary texts central to each religion.
