授業の概要と目的(何を学ぶか)Outline and objectives
Students will learn anthropological approaches for interpreting issues regarding religions, societies, and the relationships between them. This course will not be centered on theological discussions, details of religious teachings, or categories of religions. Instead, we will focus on how people practice religion, how they relate themselves to it, and, ultimately, how religions are related to society.
到達目標Goal
Students will:
-Understand basic anthropological approaches to religion.
-Improve their interest in and ability to understand 'others' as familiar existences through comparative perspectives.
-Acquire the ability to reflect on themselves with the help of 'others', and unfamiliarize the familiarized.
