RELG 368 - Mothering and Religion Semester Offered: First Semester Full Course Credits: 4 credits Attribute: 4HU, CD, WINT
This seminar explores motherhood and mothering in relation to religious attitudes and practices. We will analyze how religious practices and theological views in several religions have shaped notions of the normative “good mother,” and well as how mothering images have been used to rethink issues of embodiment, sexuality, sacrifice, and spirituality. A prior course in RELG is recommended. In addition to weekly readings, students should be prepared for independent reading of novels or short stories.
