  • ANTH 2447: Passages:Life Cycles

    4.00 Credits
    Fordham University

    Although the life cycle is biologically based, societies differ in the way they conceptualize the stages of life. This course explores differing concepts of personhood and how a person is linked to moral beliefs and ideologies of power. We examine the way rites of passage (e.g., birth, initiation ceremonies, marriage, parenthood, and death) shape personhood in different cultures. We consider how the perspectives of psychology and anthropology complement, challenge, and enrich our understanding of the life cycle. 4.000 Credit Hours 0.000 Lecture hours Levels: Undergraduate, Post Baccalaureate Schedule Types: Lecture Undergraduate Colleges College Sociology and Anthropology Department

  • ANTH 2500: Taboo: Anthro of Forbidden

    4.00 Credits
    Fordham University

    Taboo helps identify sources of social danger, establishing prohibitions designed to protect society from that which it considers dangerous or repulsive. Yet, the prohibitions always exert an undeniable attraction, leading to a fascination with transgression. Through exploration of the anthropological notion of taboo-and related cross-cultural concepts of impurity, contagion, and transgression-this course will explore the extent to which prohibition and danger structure social life. Topics considered will include incest, cannibalism, eroticism, filth, murder, madness, and sin. 4.000 Credit Hours 3.000 Lecture hours 0.000 Lab hours 0.000 Other hours Levels: Undergraduate, Post Baccalaureate Schedule Types: Lecture Undergraduate Colleges College Sociology and Anthropology Department

  • ANTH 2880: Human Sexuality

    4.00 Credits
    Fordham University

    Human sexuality in Cross-Cultural Perspective. Human sexuality presents a challenge to anthropology which, as a general practice, continues to divide the biological from cultural. Sexuality depends on biology, but its actual practices arise in specific cultural contexts, which vary widely. In this course, we examine older anthropological theories of sexuality as well as a new emerging interactionist paradigm that recognizes the power of both biology and culture. Specific topics include enthnographic method in the study of sexuality, evolutionary theory, cultural constructivism, heteronormativity, and gay, lesbian, bisexual, and transgender issues, in a range of societies. 4.000 Credit Hours 3.000 Lecture hours 0.000 Lab hours 0.000 Other hours Levels: Undergraduate, Post Baccalaureate Schedule Types: Lecture Undergraduate Colleges College Sociology and Anthropology Department

  • ANTH 2887: Anthropology of Religion

    4.00 Credits
    Fordham University

    This course will examine a range of anthropological approaches to the study of religion, from 19th century predictions of its inevitable decline to a more contemporary (near) consensus that religion is just inevitable. A cross-cultural examination of a sample of religious beliefs and practices, from the Paleolithic to the present, will sharpen definitions of religion, attempting to understand how cultural assumptions and social imperatives shape religious expression. Topics include syncretism, "tribal" shamanism and new age religion, text-based orthodoxy in the context of social stratification, and the social inevitability of fundamentalims (in Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism and Islam). 4.000 Credit Hours 4.000 Lecture hours 0.000 Lab hours 0.000 Other hours Levels: Undergraduate, Post Baccalaureate Schedule Types: Lecture Undergraduate Colleges College Sociology and Anthropology Department
