How to Study Religion
How to Study Religion
Directions: This first assignment will ease you into the study of religion by discussing a method or approach to religious studies that you find interesting. Drawing on the course readings, choose something like the psychology of religion, the sociology of religion, the anthropology of religion, or critical theory and religion.and write a 1-page summary and analysis of this approach. To receive full credit on this exercise, you’ll want to (1) give a brief overview of the approach; (2) discuss key theories or terms employed within this discipline; (3) overview the method’s primary thinkers; and, lastly, (4) identify the approach’s main contributions and, if possible, weaknesses of limitations. These four above items include the exercise’s required content areas.
As for the structure of the writing itself, please do (1) organize your exercise into coherent paragraphs; (2) proofread your prose carefully to create strong, grammatically sound sentences; (3) use a balanced mix of summaries and quotations, the latter of which will (4) include at least two in-text references to authors, dates, and page numbers for the readings. For example, let’s say that you decide to write on the chapter titled “The Anthropology of Religion.” Follow this example sentence for citations: According to the author, “Anthropology approaches religion as an aspect of culture” (Bowie 2018: 21).
Role of a researcher of human cultures an anthropologist
Role of a researcher of human cultures an anthropologist
For this assignment, which supports your final project, you should place yourself in the role of a researcher of human cultures, an anthropologist who is looking from the future back into our world today. You are asked to conduct a thorough analysis of today’s culture via a cultural work, seeking to understand how it represents culture and how it reflects its cultural environment. The work you select here will be used for your analysis in the project. Aside from selecting a work for your project, you will also look to evaluate cultural works of cultures unknown to you.
Prompt
Specifically, you must address the following rubric criteria:
Select a cultural work from the world around you, one with cultural or historical interest, and briefly describe it in your submission. This cultural work should meet the following conditions:
It can take any form and be from any physical modality (visual, aural, tactile, and so on).
It should be a form of expression that you might encounter any day, which intrigues you and makes you want to know more about it.
It must be a specific work; for example, instead of choosing the American flag, you might elect to analyze the flag at the capitol building in Washington, DC.
It should be artificial in nature, with aesthetic design elements.
After choosing a cultural work to evaluate, answer the following questions:
What characteristics or elements of the work stand out to you?
What do you think the creator intended to express?
Were they successful?
Next, select a cultural work that meets the conditions above but is from a culture unfamiliar to you. Reflect on the value or meaning of studying cultural works from different cultures.
Evaluate the impact of diversity in the study of the humanities by considering the following:
How does looking through the lens of the humanities affect your understanding of diverse cultural works and the reasons for their creation?
How could learning more about cultural works from other cultures equip you with skills or new perspectives for experiences in your life (work, community, family, and so on)?
Guidelines for Submission
Your submission should be a Word document, one to two pages in length, with 12-point Times New Roman font, double spacing, and one-inch margins. One source is required. Sources should be cited according to APA style.
