History 5229 Special Topics in Ancient Christianity
Instructor: Harrill, Bert
Days/Time: WF, 12:45pm-2:05pm
This is the graduate section of History 3218: Paul & His Influence in Early Christianity.
Description
Paul is the most powerful human personality in the history of the Church. His letters are the foundations on which later Christian theology is built. This course introduces the critical study of Paul's literary work as primary sources for reconstructing the development of the Christian movement. We explore how the figure changed over time. We look at the significance of Paul's life and the competing ways its story was retold, appropriated, or resisted. The student will study the Pauline literature closely and will read important secondary treatments of Paul, including areas of controversy in the interpretation of his life and thought. The course presupposes no prior coursework on the Bible or in the academic study of religion.
