THE 1205: Introduction to Christian Tradition
3.00 Credits
Saint Joseph's University
A broad chronological survey of the history of the development of the Christian tradition from antiquity to the present. This course will examine the origins of Christianity in the unique life of Jesus of Nazareth and trace the subsequent evolution of Christianity from a small Jewish sect to a major world religion. As is fitting for a foundational course taught in a Jesuit institution, this course will place a primary emphasis on the Roman Catholic thread of this great tradition, understanding that this specific tradition is at times clarified and properly understood only in contrast to alternative Christian positions. Critical dialogue with primary sources will be emphasized throughout the course.
