Spring 2010
A 2010 course by Todd Lewis at College of the Holy Cross surveys "a law code, ascetic mysticism, religious biography, popular narrative, and scholastic treatises. We will also consider the cross-cultural definition of “text,” hermeneutical approaches to exegesis, the idea of a “scriptural canon,” and the construction of tradition in the western historical imagination."
