HISTÂ 249. The Reformation. 1 Credit.
Offered Either Fall or Spring; Lecture hours:3
This interdisciplinary course explores how five 16th-century reformations -- Lutheran, Calvinist, Zwinglian, Anabaptist, Catholic -- altered practices of daily life. Students will "re-live" debates that occurred regarding the perceived advantages and disadvantages of these theologies, and explore how class, gender, occupation, and local economy affected the reception of these systems.
