Gender, Justice, Empire: Contextual Readings of the OT (BA9040P)

This intensive (face to face) is offered over a course of 5 days (12 - 16 February). Another 6 hours of meeting will take place over Zoom during the course of the semester at mutually agreed upon times. The class will meet from 9am to 5pm.

The Scriptural texts dealt with in this unit raise issues pertaining to women’s lives such as sexuality, and violence, both past and present, which some may find troubling.

The schedule, outline and the reading material for this unit will be available to the student on the ARK Meta site, two weeks before the class begins for those who may wish to get a head start on the reading.

Expectations:

1. Regular attendance and informed participation in class sessions;
2. Submission of two assessment tasks – See unit guide for requirements and the ARK child site for grading criteria.
