THE 472 Theologies of Encounter

This course will introduce students to both the historical and theological development of interreligious dialogue in the Roman Catholic Church’s tradition. Particular attention will be given to the meaning and purpose of interfaith encounters, identity, culture, memory, history, and politics. We will appropriate insights from theological, cultural, philosophical, and political voices from the global north and south.
