Re St 307F: Introduction to the New Testament
3.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
What can be known-from a historical perspective-about the life and teachings of Jesus and his earliest followers? How did Jesus see himself and how did his followers see him? How did the lives, teachings, and deaths of Jesus and his followers come to form the heart of a new movement? If Jesus and the apostles were all Jews, how did Christianity emerge as a distinct "religion"? This course investigates these questions through a focus on the earliest sources for Jesus and his first followers, including and extending beyond the canonical books of the Christian New Testament. Our approach in this course is historical and literary, rather than theological or confessional: we ask what Jesus, his first followers, and their Jewish and "pagan" contemporaries did and believed, and we try to catch glimpses of the worlds in which they lived and the cultures that they took for granted.

Re St 3082: Introduction to Rabbinic Judaism
3.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
This course offers a survey of the historical, literary, social, and conceptual development of Rabbinic Judaism from its inception in late antiquity to the early Middle Ages. The goal of the class is to study Rabbinic Judaism as a dynamic phenomenon as a constantly developing religious system. Among the topics to be explored are: How was the sacrificial cult of the Temple replaced by a ritual centered on the reading of Scripture and the recitation of prayers? How did the "Rabbis" emerge as a movement after the destruction of the Second Temple, and to what extent can we reconstruct their history? How did Rabbinic Judaism develop in its two centers of origin, Palestine (the Land of Israel) and Iraq (Jewish Babylonia), to become the dominant form of Judaism under the rule of Islam? How did Jewish ritual and liturgy develop under Rabbinic influence? How were the Rabbis organized and was there diversity within the group? What was the Rabbis' view of women? How did they perceive non-Rabbinic Jews and non-Jews? As Rabbinic Literature is used as the main source to answer these questions, the course provides an introduction to the Mishnah, the Palestinian and Babylonian Talmuds, and the Midrash collections, a literature that defines the character of Judaism down to our own times. All texts are read in translation.

Re St 3090: Chinese Thought
3.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
This course offers an introduction to Chinese thought through a study of thinkers from arguably one of the most vibrant periods of religious-philosophical discourse in China. We examine early classical texts from the Daoist, Confucian, Mohist, and Legalist traditions, and follow arguments where the thinkers expand upon, dispute, and respond to each other in regard to questions that are still important to us today. We explore issues such as notions of the self, conceptions of the greater cosmos, the role of rituals, ideas about human nature, and the subjects of freedom and duty. Motivating the course is the underlying question: What is the good life?

Re St 3092: Confucian Thought: The Sage and Society: Writing Intensive Seminar
3.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
This course offers an introduction to the ethical dimensions of Confucianism through a study of a select number of religio-philosophical texts ranging from ca. 500 bce through the present day. We begin with a study of Confucianism as a commentarial tradition on the classical text of the Analects. We then turn to the theme of self-cultivation and examine three contrasting ideas put forth on the subject: self-cultivation through learning the classics, through mystical intuition, and through a study of history. In the third part, we explore the role of Confucianism in addressing contemporary ethical issues such as ones regarding government, abortion, the environment, human rights, feminism, and intellectual property.

Re St 3101: The Problem of Evil
3.00 Credits
Washington University in St Louis
The question of how God can allow evil to occur to the righteous or innocent people has been a perennial dilemma in religion and philosophy. We study the classic statement of the problem in the biblical book of Job, the ancient Near Eastern literature on which Job is based, and traditional Jewish and Christian interpretation of Job. We study the major approaches to the problem of evil in Western philosophical and religious thought.
