RELIGIOUS STUDIES 238 - Liberating Theology

Institution:

Hobart William Smith Colleges

Subject:

Description:

In the popular imagination we often associate Christianity with the elites, colonizers, or oppressors in history. But what happens when we rethink Christianity from the perspective of those marginalized from mainstream society This course does that with the help of major 20th-century theologians who might in some way be considered part of the Liberation Theology movement. Key perspectives covered include Latin American liberation theology, feminist theology, black theology, and others. (Salter, offered alternate years)
