RELIGION 230c: Anthropology of Religion
3.00 Credits
Bowdoin College
Fall 2006. SUNIL GOONASEKERA. Explores the anthropological perspectives on religious ideas and practices in a wide variety of cultures: the way various cultures define the nature of the world, the place of human beings, the senses of time and space, and how life must be lived. The context for this study includes "salvation religions" such as Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhismas well as "micro-religions" like magic, sorcery, witchcraft, and spirit possession that addressthe everyday concerns of the believers. Investigates the classical and contemporary anthropological theories about the origins of religiosity and the relationships between religion, politics, economics, psychology, and other areas of culture, and with anthropological methods for studying religious phenomena. (Same as Anthropology 207.)

RELIGION 231c: Anthropology of Pilgrimage
3.00 Credits
Bowdoin College
Spring 2007. SUNIL GOONASEKERA. Today, there is a consensus among some educated people that pilgrimages are irrational and performed by the unenlightened. Another perspective balances this consensus with the view that pilgrimages are profoundly meaningful and enlightening. The latter view is held not only by traditional people but also by many sociologists and anthropologists. Develops a discussion about this controversy and explores the second perspective with special reference to theories of pilgrimage, and how these theories relate to the experiences of the pilgrims. Several ethnographies of pilgrimages to Buddhist, Christian, Hindu, and Islamic holy places are discussed in light of sociological and anthropological theories. (Same as Asian Studies 215.)

RELIGION 249c: ESD.Monotheism and Masculinity
3.00 Credits
Bowdoin College
Fall 2006. ELIZABETH PRITCHARD. Focuses on the emergence of and continuing elaborations of transcendent monotheism in the Abrahamic traditions. Of particular interest is the relationship between portrayals of the divine and assumptions about gender, class, and race. Other topics include whether it is possible or permissible to obtain knowledge of the divine (and perhaps be able to see or depict the divine); the relationship between transcendent monotheism, cultural identity, and violence; and the ways in which monotheism informs various renderings of morality and politics. Readings include selections from the Bible, Augustine, Maimonides, Aquinas, Ibn-Arabi, and Luther. (Same as Gender and Women's Studies 238.)

RELIGION 250c: Western Religious Thought in the Modern and Postmodern Contexts
3.00 Credits
Bowdoin College
Spring 2007. ELIZABETH PRITCHARD. Perhaps nothing characterizes the philosophical and political thought of the modern West so much as the array of critiques and reconstructions of religion. Unpacks the complexities and varieties of critical views, as well as rehabilitations, of Western religious ideas and practices. Of particular interest are the critiques of religious knowledge claims, subjectivity, and patriarchy. Authors include Hume, Kant, Schleiermacher, Kierkegaard, Feuerbach, Daly, and Taylor.
