TRS 1450 Religions of Japan
(formerly TRS 145)
This course presents an introductory survey of religions of Japan in their historical development and contemporary expression. Particular attention will be given to the dynamic relation between religion and Japanese culture throughout the major phases of Japan’s history, and the manner in which Japanese religions/cultural forms have been notably present in the contemporary context of cultural globalization. The course is recommended for students who will participate in the Molloy College International Education Study Abroad trip to Japan, although enrollment in the Study Abroad trip is not a prerequisite for the class.
