Narrative Power and Interfaith Peacebuilding

STH TS 807

This course focuses on gathering, analyzing and drawing insight from the narratives of peacemakers from Jewish, Muslim, and Christian traditions. Students will explore: narrative theology; historic peacebuilding narratives; the art and methods of oral history; and the collection and analysis of contemporary oral histories of interfaith peacebuilders. Drawing wisdom from these several modes of learning, each student will construct a theological and practical contribution to inform future peacebuilding efforts.
