Undergraduate students of all subjects with an interest in interreligious and intercultural issues
This course follows the complex trajectories linking interreligious and intercultural narratives in Germany today. How does the culture of memory in Germany, with its Christian framework and Jewish focus converge and diverge with more recent narratives of migration that have made Islam a visible presence in Germany? This is the main question this course seeks to address. Students will interrogate this topic through lectures, workshops, and site visits to museums and other locations.
This course is anthropologically oriented and treats the sites as field sites to be explored empirically and analysed critically. It is well-suited to students who are interested in religious studies, history, the social sciences, and/or more specialised fields such as urban studies, ethics, or museum studies.
