TPHL 647 - Theology of Spirit:A Panentheistic Exploration of the World

3 credits
This course attempts to rethink the idea of the Spirit by questioning the asymmetrically binary constructions of classical Western thought, i.e., of transcendence and immanence, spirit and nature, mind and body, ideal and material, eternity and time, permanence and change, etc., and by seeking more immanent, earthly, dynamic, processional, relational, and pluralistic ways of construing God. The course examines some modern and contemporary theologians and philosophers such as Hegel, Tillich, Whitehead, Deleuze, Hodgson, Clayton, Keller, Schneider, etc. This course is a seminar designed for intermediate to advanced students.  Prerequisite: TPHL 501
