About this course
Various cultures hold different attitudes in their approaches to healing. What are the shared characteristics of people who have been considered healers? How does one's own suffering shape his/her idea of God? What is the role of the Earth? Is there a difference between curing and healing? How have the scientific revolution and the development of Western medicine shaped the way we understand healing today? Through the use of religious texts, fiction, guest speakers and art we will examine approaches to the body, suffering, death and healing.
