1 UNIVERSITY OF COPENHAGEN Religion in Crisis: Philosophy of Religion After the Death of God University of Copenhagen / DIS Fall Semester 2018 Class Meetings: Tuesdays 12:05-14:30. Room: University of Copenhagen, South Campus, Room 7C.1.05 Course Instructor: K. Brian Söderquist kbs@sk.ku.dk Computer policy: No computers in class. No net, no texting during class. Course Content: In this course at the University of Copenhagen, we will explore the possibility of religious conviction in a secularized world. Questions like these are central: In a world in which religious narratives and doctrines strike the contemporary mind as unbelievable as history or scientific explanation, upon what might the modern, educated person base her religious convictions? Are religious sensibilities ultimately expressions of a deep sense of morality? Is the religious attitude better described as a feeling or intuition for the infinite behind the finite world? Is personal religious conviction based on experience of the divine? Is contemporary faith an intellectually indefensible but nonetheless hopeful subjective decision to adopt religious traditions and doctrines? We will follow the evolution of religious thinking in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, much of which argues that religion should avoid the distorting demand of justifying itself solely in terms of rationality and that it ought to consider the volitional and experiential aspects of religious life, as well. Our goal is to gain a critical appreciation of the development of religious thought, with a particular focus on the significance of religious experience, based on a study of a handful of highly influential texts by authors such as Immanuel Kant, Friedrich Schleiermacher, Friedrich Nietzsche, William James, as well as Copenhagen s most famous philosophical mind, Søren Kierkegaard. Readings: Completion of reading assignments as scheduled is required and is a prerequisite for participating in class discussions. Lectures and Discussion: In general, class will be a combination of lecture and class discussion. Class participation includes attendance and the quality of contributions that students make in class. Short Papers: Three short papers (4-5 double spaced pages) will be assigned during the course of the semester. Late papers will be penalized a half-grade for each day after the due date. Research Paper: An analytical/interpretive paper will be due toward the end of the semester. The University of Copenhagen requires a paper of 19,200-24,000 characters including spaces for bachelor degree students, including DIS students. This is roughly equivalent to double-
2 spaced pages. The requirement is 28,800-36,000 characters including spaces for KU master degree students. This is roughly equivalent to double-spaced pages. You must include a character count on the front page of your paper. (You must receive a passing grade on the research paper to receive a final grade in the course. Late papers will be penalized a half-grade for each day after the due date.) Danske studerende må gerne skrive på dansk. Attendance: Class attendance is required, including classes with guest lecturers. According to KU policy, all students must be present 75% of the time to receive a grade. Plagiarism: Any student who plagiarizes will fail the course. Course Evaluation: Research paper: 45% First short paper: 15% Second short paper: 15% Third short paper: 15% Attendance and Participation: 10% Course texts: These books can be purchased at the South Campus Bookstore: Immanuel Kant, Religion Within the Boundaries of Mere Reason, Cambridge, 1998 ISBN: Friedrich Schleiermacher, On Religion: Speeches to Its Cultured Despisers, Cambridge, 1996, ISBN: Søren Kierkegaard, Fear and Trembling, Penguin, 1985 ISBN: William James, The Varieties of Religious Experience, Oxford, 2012 ISBN: Pdf readings on Absalon: Søren Kierkegaard, selected texts from Concluding Unscientific Postscript.
