REL 118 - The Religious QuestThree Credits
Fall Semester
This course explores pilgrimage in Christianity, Islam, and Buddhism in light of theories of pilgrimage, ritual, and sacred space. The primary focus will be on the pilgrimages to Lourdes, Santiago de Campostella, Mecca, and Buddhist sites in Japan and India. The course also considers how for many people—even those who do not consider themselves religious—pilgrimage serves as a model for living a meaningful life.
Fulfills the Cornerstone Religious Studies Requirement.
