BCM 245 - Martyrs, Mothers, Mystics

Credits: 4

An examination of the development of theology through the lens of women and others on the margins of society (the enslaved, ethnic minorities, and the poor). Through the contributions, relationships, and experiences of women and others on the periphery, this course will shed light on major theological developments such as the formation of the Biblical canon, ecumenical councils, the rise of monasticism, ecclesiological shifts, and mysticism.
