RELI 108 - (HP) Peter, Paul and Mary

Semester Hours: 3
Periodically
This course explores the lives and traditions of some of the most significant and intriguing figures in early Christian history: Simon Peter, one of Jesus’ closest disciples; Paul of Tarsus, missionary to the Gentiles; and Mary, the mysterious woman from Magdala. Mary is also, however, the name of Jesus’ mother, and this course explores the traditions of both Marys. This course will focus on these personalities, surveying the historical information available to us, the legends that arose around them, and their importance in the history of Christianity.

Prerequisite(s)/Course Notes:
Any RELI or JWST course  or permission of instructor.
