1 ! THEO-3930: Jesus in the Qur an Spring 2018 Class Days and Time: TR, 16:00-17:15 Classroom: PRH-4 Prerequisite(s): Theo-100 Credit(s): 333 Instructor: Dr. Carlos A. Segovia Instructor s carlos.segovia@slu.edu Instructor s Campus Phone: , ext. 229 / 235 Office: SIH-315 Office Hours: TR, 15:00-16:00 Course Description: While clearly affirming that God has no partner, and moreover that he is childless, the quranic authors repeatedly encourage their audience to behave like Jesus s disciples, defend Jesus against the Jews, declare him to be the Messiah and the Word of God as well as a spirit from him (a series of titles they never apply to other prophets), make systematic use of a number of crucial Christian rhetorical moves, and quote more or less verbatim the New Testament Apocrypha and the writings of several late-antique Christian authors. Furthermore, they seem to be engaged in intra-christian controversies just as much as they seem to partake in anti-christian polemics. Conversely, the apparently pro-jewish passages that one finds in the Qur ān often prove tricky, as they are usually placed within, or next to, more or less violent antijewish pericopes that bear the marks of Christian rhetoric despite a few occasional anti-christian interpolations. And to further complicate these matters, the earliest quranic layers seems to contain a non-jesus-centred angelomorphic Christology which lacks any reference to any human prophet. What, then, can we make out of this puzzle? Is it possible, moreover, to reinterpret the Christology of the Qur ān as a reaction against the imposition of imperial (Chalcedonian) Christianity in the region? Reflecting on these issues is as essential for a correct understanding of emergent Islam as it is valuable to help foster, and simultaneously delimit, interfaith dialogue in our time. The course will combine lectures and workshops. Most of the work will be carried out through the collective reading, multi-layered examination, and thorough discussion of different quranic texts.
2 Course Goals and Student Learning Outcomes: Students who successfully complete the course will have achieved the following learning outcomes: to understand the style, purpose, and content of the quranic narratives about Jesus to understand the complex textual and contextual problems that they present to critically asses the merits and demerits of their traditional interpretation to canvass the main results achieved in the study of such narratives over the past decades to ponder their relevance for rethinking the emergence Islam and early Muslim-Christian relations to critically asses their implications for modern interfaith dialogue to determine, by one s own lights, how to better deal with all the aforementioned issues Saint Louis University - Madrid Campus is committed to excellent and innovative educational practices. In order to maintain quality academic offerings and to conform to relevant accreditation requirements, the Campus regularly assesses its teaching, services, and programs for evidence of student learning outcomes achievement. For this purpose anonymised representative examples of student work from all courses and programs is kept on file, such as assignments, papers, exams, portfolios, and results from student surveys, focus groups, and reflective exercises. Thus, copies of student work for this course, including written assignments, in-class exercises, and exams may be kept on file for institutional research, assessment and accreditation purposes. If students prefer that Saint Louis University - Madrid Campus does not keep their work on file, they need to communicate their decision in writing to the professor. Required Texts and Materials: The text for the course is Muhammad A. S. Abdel Haleem. The Qur an: A New Translation. Oxford and New York: Oxford University Press, It is required and available at SLU Madrid bookshop.

Oriens Christianum 98 (2015): Attendance Policy: Seven or more absences FOR ANY REASON constitute an unrecoverable loss of course content and will result in an F for the course. Mobile phones are to be switched OFF in class. Computers and tablets are to be used SOLELY for taking class notes. Students are expected not to interrupt class by leaving the room and returning during the class period. Course Requirements and Grading Rationale/System: In this course final grades are calculated as a weighted average of four scores: three exams and participation. The scores are weighted as follows: Midterm exam 33.33% Final exam: 33.33% Participation: 33.33% Exams: The exams must be taken on the dates assigned. Violations of this policy will result in the loss of a grade point (from B to C, for example) in all but the most exceptional cases. The midterm exam will consist of a multiple-choice quiz and a textual analysis. In turn, in your final exam you will be asked to formulate a question relative to the contents of the course and to write a brief essay on it with the help of two concepts of your choice. You will be allowed to bring your class and home notes to the final exam; no materials will be admitted in the midterm exam, though. Participation: This component of your final grade will be based on several written exercises and commitment to the class workshops and discussions. Participation in the course workshops is mandatory that is to say, all students will be asked to take part in, and actively contribute to, these. Please note that, as a student in this course, you are required to adhere to the university s Academic Honesty Policy. Cheating, falsification, and plagiarism are strictly forbidden. Plagiarism is the intentional representation of someone else s thoughts or words as if they were one s own. Any violation of this policy will result in an F for the pertinent academic exercise. A detailed statement of the policy may be found at Campus and course announcements will often be handled by . Students should check regularly.
