TPHL 622 - Topics in Comparative Theology

3 credits
This series of seminars explores comparative theology as a new way of doing Christian theology interreligiously and cross-traditionally, with a view to constructing Christian doctrines with the help of the insights gained from a dialogical and comparative engagement with another religious tradition. The comparison will focus on figures (e.g., Whitehead and Zhu Xi), concepts/themes (e.g., Logos and Tao), or texts (e.g., The Soul’s Journey into God and The Bodhicaryavatara). A particular attention will be given to engaging the North East Asian traditions of Confucianism, Daoism, and Mahayana Buddhism.” Course may be repeated.
