1 An Introduction to Asian Theology KNT2621HF (Fall of 2010) Tuesday 11:00 am 1:00 pm Instructor: Dr. Lee, Bryan Jeongguk ( 이정국, 李廷國 ) , jeongguk.lee@utoronto.ca I. Course Description The purpose of this course is to recognize themes and insights that are developed uniquely by Asian theologians, mainly from China, Japan, and Korea, such as C.S. Song, Kosuke Koyama, and Korean Minjung Theologians. This course will help non-asian students to get some knowledge of Asian cultures and Asian indigenous religions, and Asian students to develop a theology based on their Asian heritage and experiences. Consequently, this course will help theological students, both Asian and non-asian, to overcome Western parochialism and contribute to a development of Christian theology for the coming multicultural and pluralistic century we have been already embarked. The course will be in seminar format with lecture input, analysis of readings, student presentation and class discussion. II. Course Objectives: Knowledge, skills and competencies This course aims to help students to: 1) Identify and describe diverse theological developments in Asia. 2) Become familiar with the major themes, distinctive features, and methodologies of Asian theologies 3) Formulate a broader/global perspective in their theological thinking in relation to our local context 4) Demonstrate skills to express their ideas in both oral and written forms, using proper research formats. III. Required Texts: available at Crux Bookstore. Koyama, Kosuke. Water Buffalo Theology. Twenty-Fifth Anniversary Edition, Revised and Expanded. Maryknoll, N. Y.: Orbis Books, Song, C. S. Jesus, the Crucified People. Minneapolis: Fortress Press, IV. COURSE REQUIREMENTS AND EVALUATIVE CRITERIA Grade scale and grade expectations are contained in the TST Basic Degree Handbook. 1.
