| Wymagania wstępne: | (tylko po angielsku) This seminar does not require prior academic study of Religion, nor does it require language skills other than English. This is a seminar designed for postgraduate students (Studiów Europejskich SUM, Visegrad MA, CES MA, etc). Students from outside of those programmes who would like to participate in this seminar should have already completed a BA/first-cycle degree. Please speak directly with the instructor if you have questions or doubts about your status. This seminar assumes that all students have a C1 or higher level English skills (this covers especially the reading assignments and the term paper). There are a limited number of places. |
|
| Forma i warunki zaliczenia: | (tylko po angielsku) Assignments: 1. Every student must select and briefly introduce one of the topical assigned reading selections to the other members of the seminar. The introduction should include a very brief summary of the main points of the reading, followed by the student’s own reaction to the reading, followed by questions for discussion. (Readings will be chosen during the second meeting.) 2. Every student must select and introduce a current news item (ie, published between the end of the previous meeting and the current meeting) related to religion in Central and Eastern Europe to the other members of the seminar. 3. Every student must write a short term paper (approximately 6 standard pages which is roughly 10,800 characters including spaces) on a current topic concerning religion in Central and Eastern Europe. The paper must be submitted in electronic format (pdf, rtf. docx). Deadline: 9 January 2024. 4. There will be an oral exam in which the student will discuss their own terms paper and presentations, as well as general questions from the course.

| Skrócony opis: |
The aim of the course is to introduce the students to the distinctive characteristics of the religious aspect of Central and Eastern Europe with a special focus on the most recent developments: from the new Europe of the early 1990s through to daily current events that occur over the course the semester. Although suppressed and persecuted in the Communist past, religion has now openly returned to the social scene, public life and discussions in the mass media. What are the avenues of religious transformation? What kind of relevance, if any, does religion have for modern social life? Is Central and Eastern Europe completely different from the West in this respect? Do religion and religious institutions play any role in the visions of the European Union for this region? |
