CRIT 321 Afterlife



3 credits 45.0 hours
300 level undergraduate course

The concept of an afterlife, that there is an immortal future, has been central to most cultures. By understanding different conceptions of what happens to us after we die, we really explore how societies engage in continuous conscious reflection upon ethics, identity, tragedy, the nature of good and evil, repentance and forgiveness. In short, beliefs about the afterlife are perfect vehicles for us to understand how a given culture understands and values life itself.
