THE-314 JEWISH CIVILIZATION & PRACTICE

This course examines the variety of elements that coalesce to define Judaism as both a civilization and a religion. The course uses Jewish historical phases such as the biblical, rabbinic, medieval and modern periods, as backdrops against which Judaic theology, practice and ritual are examined. The primary means by which Judaism is analyzed is via the study of biblical, rabbinic, and modern Jewish texts. Pre-requisite: ENG 112 or 210.
