Description:

This series of first year courses explores the ideas that are key to the development of the American experiment with democracy. An examination of Christianity's stake in this development is held up as a central concern around the themes on which the "Ideas Matter" courses focus. An emphasis is placed on the diverse religious, literary, cultural, artistic, historic, and political expressions of those individuals excluded from, as well as included in, the initial compact of citizenship in the emerging republic.With attention to the American context, major movements in religion, science, government, philosophy, economics, etc. are treated as part and parcel to the concerns of these courses.
