RLST 064 CM - Religion in Motion
How does religion change across time and space? This course examines the ways in which Islamic concepts, symbols, and discourses change across different geographies and time periods. In our explorations, we are particularly interested in (1) cataloging the vast diversity of Islamic expressions in different times and places, particularly in South and Southeast Asia; (2) exploring how actors in these different regions and eras may make claims about ‘authentic’ Islam; and (3) exploring how language associated with these authoritative claims often presents Islam as unchanging. This course assumes no previous knowledge of Islam.
Course Credit: 1.0
