1 RELIGIOUS EXPERIENCE IN COMPARATIVE PERSPECTIVE SEMESTER AT SEA COURSE SYLLABUS University of Virginia, Academic Sponsor Voyage: Fall 2015 Discipline: Religious Studies RELG 2559: Religious Experience in Comparative Perspective Division: Lower Faculty Name: John Nemec Credit Hours: 3; Contact Hours: 38 Pre-requisites: Students are recommended, but not required, to have some experience with the study of religion and/or of particular religious traditions (Hinduism, Buddhism, Christianity, Islam, Judaism, African Religions, Native American Religions, etc.), prior to taking this course. COURSE DESCRIPTION This course will address a single, fundamental question in the study of religion: what is the nature of religious experience? In doing so, we will examine the great varieties of religious experiences, the different modes of religiosity as they appear in personal and, to a secondary degree, corporate or social religious practice. Contemplation, meditation, and prayer, exstatic and enstatic, and other types of experiences will be considered. Mysticism will form a central concern of this course. COURSE OBJECTIVES The dual objectives of this course are to come to understand the many varieties of religious experiences and to gain familiarity with and appreciation for the various approaches to religious experience offered in differing religious traditions and in differing geographic locales in history and today. In the process, students will be encouraged to learn to think critically, read analytically, and write argumentatively. REQUIRED TEXTBOOKS AUTHOR: James, William.

5 Field lab attendance is mandatory for all students enrolled in this course. Do not book individual travel plans or a Semester at Sea sponsored trip on the day of your field lab. Students should use the fieldwork portion of this class to visit famous sites of religious/mystical practices. These may be found literally in any place on earth, and of course in the major religious centers to be visited on our voyage: Assisi in Italy, the whirling dervishes in Turkey, and so on. I propose as a field lab the following: A visit to Galata Mevlevihanesi, located on Galipdede Caddesi, not far from Tünel at the end of Istiklal Caddesi in Istanbul to see the Whirling Dervishes. As an alternative, we could visit a sufi shrine in Senegal, at the Great Mosque of Touba, where Ahmadou Bamba, founder of the Mouride sufi order, is entombed. This would be more complicated, however, as the mosque lies some distance from the port of Dakar. HONOR CODE Semester at Sea students enroll in an academic program administered by the University of Virginia, and thus bind themselves to the University s honor code. The code prohibits all acts of lying, cheating, and stealing. Please consult the Voyager s Handbook for further explanation of what constitutes an honor offense. Each written assignment for this course must be pledged by the student as follows: On my honor as a student, I pledge that I have neither given nor received aid on this assignment. The pledge must be signed, or, in the case of an electronic file, signed [signed]. 5
