ANTH 3900 - Anthropology of Religion

Institution:

Weber State University

Subject:

Anthropology

Description:

How do spiritual, cosmological, and religious experiences shape our relationships with the world, each other, and ourselves? In this course, we will explore this and many other questions about the operation of faith, belief, spirituality and religion in the world from an anthropological perspective. That means, we will be examining religious and spiritual practice as culturally informed social action. Through a diverse range of literature, film, and podcasts, we will engage historical and contemporary theories on what religion may tell us about the project of being human.
