RLST 093 SC - Early Christianity and/as Theory

Why do scholars of early Christianity so often turn to theories developed in modern contexts, and why do modern theorists so often use ancient Christianity as a testing ground? We will examine this cross-fascination in the realms of sociology, anthropology, Marxism, psychoanalysis, feminism, postcolonialism and queer theory. HRT II.
