REL 2365: Religion In India
3.00 Credits
University of Pittsburgh-Pittsburgh Campus
New countries can boast such an extensive and diverse religious heritage as can India. It is the birthplace of Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism, home to a large Muslim community, as well as to small, but ancient, communities of Syrian Christians, Parsis, and Jews. The course gives a brief historical overview of these religious traditions, introduces students to basic concepts related to each of them, and illustrates their rich practices through primary and secondary readings, films, art, and music. This seminar is offered in conjunction with RELGST 1500: Religion in India 1.

REL 2710: Perspectives On Religion
3.00 Credits
University of Pittsburgh-Pittsburgh Campus
This seminar is designed to acquaint students with a broad spectrum of theorists of religion from the 19th and 20th centuries. Topics range widely, therefore, from the relationships between society, individuals, and religion to the role of ideology, mythology, ritual, symbols, and experience. An emphasis upon areas of conflict in the study of religion will be emphasized, including the death of metanarratives; categorical assumptions; challenges to the institutional identity of religious studies; the limits of phenomenology; and methodological pluralism. Readings include such scholars as Asad, Berger, Durkheim, Eliade, Freud, Geertz, Marx, McCutcheon, Pals, J.Z. Smith, and Stark. Each student will write a term paper that engages course readings and themes. While the course serves as a core course in the graduate curriculum, it raises questions and develops skills useful for a lifetime of reflection on the nature of religious experience and its theorization.

RELGST 0283: Us And The Holocaust
3.00 Credits
University of Pittsburgh-Pittsburgh Campus
In recent years more and more attention has been focused on the Nazis and their policy of mass murder. Along with that interest, there has come a spate of questions regarding the perception and response of the Allies to Hitler. This course is an attempt to look at the situation on this side of the Atlantic before, during and after WWII. We shall explore the Holocaust in Europe, but focus on American policy and American policy makers such as F.D.R. in the 30's and 40's and look at those factors which influenced our reaction. There will be an opportunity to explore some of the issues and questions that the Holocaust raises for Americans today. In addition to selected films, there will be an opportunity to meet survivors of the camps.

RELGST 0735: Wisdom
3.00 Credits
University of Pittsburgh-Pittsburgh Campus
We live in a time when there is no single tradition of wisdom that all Americans hold in common. As a result, many of us are searching to find--or reclaim--a wisdom to live by. Fortunately, the resources of the world's traditions are now available as never before, and there has also been an outpouring of wisdom literature in our own culture. Of course, not all of this "wisdom" is really wise, but some of it is--hence the need to think critically about it. This course, then, is a consumer guide to wisdom. Using examples from several traditions, we talk about how to evaluate sayings, stories, and practices that present themselves as "wise." Some of our readings come from the western tradition, some from other traditions, and some from contemporary spiritual and self-help literature. Readings also include theoretical writings on religious language, metaphor, and ritual.
