REL 314 - Fiction, Film and the Western Contemplative Tradition


Both the contemplative and artist share a profound inner encounter with the self in a creative and transformative experience. This course aligns these two encounters. The student will be introduced to the scholarly field of Christian spirituality and the praxis of the classic methods of meditation and contemplation. The course targets artistic expression in 20th and 21st century films and literature. (Offered spring semester, alternate years.) 3 credits
