RLST 097 SC - Queer African Christianities

This course examines the premodern social construction of gender and human sexuality as inscribed in the texts and material culture of Christians hailing from Egypt, Ethiopia, and the Nubian kingdoms (Nobadia, Makouria, Alodia). Specifically, we examine how holy Christian women and men transgressed and subverted gender normativities through gender-queer performatives.

Course Credit: 1.0
Offered: Occasionally


Please refer to the course schedule on the Scripps Portal for current course offerings and details.
