Catalog Description : This course will examine high points of the Hebrew Bible, beginning with the Torah but moving on to the history, poetry, wisdom, and prophetic voices that have made it a major work of world literature. We will start by thinking about how these works fit into a particular historical context, but move forward to sample how these texts have shaped Judaism and influenced other religious traditions and how its language and themes have been repurposed by literary writers and social activists.
