REL 15.01 Other Christs: Introduction to Eastern Christianity
Every church preaches its own Jesus: this course is devoted to the ‘other Christs’ of the Eastern Christian traditions. Some celebrate the liturgy in the language of Jesus, others in the language of the pharaohs, and their communities are spread across Egypt, the Middle East, Russia, the Caucasus, India and beyond. This course explores the rich, multicultural history of Christian communities whose origins reach back to early Christianity, and the challenges they face today.
