FRIT 35.03 Religions in Modern Italy

Addressing the complex landscape of modern Italian religious life and the cultural production that has accompanied and/or responded to it, this course will examine texts, films, and performing artists that engage with Italian Judaism, Roman Catholicism, Islam, and other religious traditions represented in the country. The focus is on religious affiliation as a cultural rather than a strictly theological practice, reflected in modern Italian social, linguistic, and political realities as well as in questions of race, sexual roles, and gender identity.
