Hello! Please share with any interested students! This course has zero free electives and can appeal to students from a wide variety of majors. This course allows student to delve into the academic study of the bible from a literary perspective. Course Description: The Bible is considered by many Jews and Christians to be a sacred text. People read it devotionally, from a historical perspective, and even theologically, but it may also be read as a literary text, or rather as a collection of literary texts. This course will focus on a variety of literary approaches to the text of the Bible, informed by an understanding of the historical development, selection, and transmission of the text. The instructor does not assume any previous knowledge of the Bible or any particular faith commitment on the part of the student. The course will be taught from an academic, nonsectarian perspective.
