1 KNH1015HF FALL 2010 A GLOBAL HISTORY OF CHRISTIANITY A SURVEY Knox College, Room 4, Tuesdays 2 4 PM Instructor: David Robinson david.robinson@utoronto.ca Instructor I m a PhD candidate at the University of St. Michael s College in the area of Patristics. As a teacher, I wish to lead my students to a broader knowledge and deeper appreciation of the history, theology, and spirituality of early Christianity, and to relate this understanding to their own spiritual life and ministry in the contemporary church. Course Description The course introduces students to the methods and study of the history of Christianity, and surveys major events and trends in Christian history. As a survey course, topics will not be covered in extensive detail or at great depth; rather, the course will allow students to place events in their proper chronological order and cultural context which will allow for more detailed study of topics later in further courses at TST and as needed in congregational ministry or further graduate study. The course comprises a weekly two-hour lecture (Tuesdays 2 4 PM, Room 4) and a weekly one-hour seminar (Tuesdays 12 1 PM, Room 3; or, Thursdays 1 2 PM, Room 2) Course Objectives Knowledge, Skills, and Competencies In successfully completing this course, a student will be able to: 1. Demonstrate ethical behaviour, taking responsibility for the expectations of the course and showing respect and a willingness to listen in the learning atmosphere including class discussions and small groups. 2. Demonstrate an introductory knowledge of the topics covered by the course in the survey of Global Christianity o Identify major time periods, events, and peoples in the history of Global Christianity. 3. Demonstrate an introductory knowledge of the methods used in historical study: o Identify and apply the distinction between primary and secondary historical sources. o Identify, define, and describe the use of the major historical methods. o Apply critical methods to the interpretation of history following models demonstrated in class.
