LST 521 - Monstrous Or Marvelous: Religion, Science and Literature


In this course, we will study the interrelationships among western religion, science, and literature from a historical perspective as well as a contemporary one with an emphasis on popular culture. We’ll examine the role that literature plays in disseminating, as well as informing, conflicting and complementary ideas about religion and science. Texts are paired across centuries and across genres, including film and other visual media. Ultimately, we’ll try to make sense of the on-going dialogue between contemporary science and religion and its implications for understanding God and human nature.
