GSWS 1620 - WOMEN AND RELIGION


Minimum Credits: 3
Maximum Credits: 3
This course will examine the role of women in the Bible, the way in which such roles were constructed and reinforced in the Western tradition, and the contemporary viability of this tradition as a meaningful one in our own world. Specifically, we will consider the polarity of "mother" vs. "fallen woman," as the prototypical models of female behavior and social acceptance, and the way in which ""salvation"" is construed for each type.
