CATH 306 Topics in Lives of the Saints

Continues the exploration of goodness begun in CATH 206 through the study of lives of the Saints. The lives of the Saints present extraordinary examples of Christian life lived out in goodness and beauty, often in the face of personal and social challenges of their culture and time. The course will consider the saint's (or saints') achievements both in terms of their intellectual and cultural significance, and of their significance to Catholic history and the development of the Catholic understanding of the possibilities of grace and freedom. This course can be repeated for credit if the course topic of additional courses differs from the first course taken; by approval of the program director.
