ARLT 230 - Vatican Councils I & II

3 credits
This course seeks to understand the Council’s decrees in context: first, in relation to its predecessor to which it was integrally related, historically and otherwise; second, by considering the philosophical, theological, cultural, historical, political and social influences which brought about the convocation of both councils and the final documents. Students are guided through original texts and assisted in evaluating how the teachings of these councils have been “received” within the Catholic Church, and how they have in turn had an impact on ecumenical, interreligious and political affairs.
