RLG313: Love, Sex, Family

Winter 2025

Course Description:

This course will explore the multiple and shifting intersections between religion,on the one hand,and love, sex,and family,on the other.We will pay close attention to the way religions construct,control,and shape these social formations in the Americas from the nineteenth through to the twenty-first centuries.We will use case studies to inform our analysis(e.g.,the Moral Majority and the overturning of Roe v.Wade;Mormon  polygamy;sex workers in Mennonite country;and Pope Francis'declaration of human-animal kinship as "selfish").We will also attend to the long reach of traditional notions of love,sex,and family and their "translation"into   secularized   forms(e.g.,media,entertainment,popular culture)for contemporary life.By analyzing a variety of different romantic and kinship arrangements,this course will help make clear the contingency,constructedness,and historical development of these notions,however natural or inevitable they may seem.

Learning Outcomes:

In this course, you will..

·     understand the religious  roots of modern formations of gender,sexuality,and kinship,focusing on religions  in  the  Americas/Turtle Island(e.g.,Judaism,Christianity,lslam,Indigenous  traditions,and New Religious Movements)

·     think critically about how these religious roots and their modern formations are used,perpetuated, and  transformed in different legal,cultural,political,relational,and  ethical contexts

·    critically analyze and creatively apply the course concepts through close reading,careful research,inquisitive writing,and thoughtful in-class discussions

Class Structure and Expectations:

Participation

Students are encouraged to attend class regularly and to be active members of the classroom dynamic. This means being present,actively listening,aswell as asking questions,and/or respondingto prompts raised by the instructor and your peers when appropriate.Participation may take the form of in-class discussions,group work,and writing activities,all of which will be based on the assigned readings and lecture materials.I understand that our class time is limited and it will not always be possible for all voices to be heard,so there will be an additional opportunity to share your thoughts with your classmates on a discussion board that will be open for 48 hours after class.I will post questions that can betaken up and/or students can raise their own questions,comments,and reflections that emerge from the week's materials.

Reflections

1-Family   Types   &Terms

This reflection(350-500 words)asks students to briefly describe three different types of families (e.g., intergenerational,nuclear,the  Addams  Family)or  to define three family related terms(e.g.,marriage, divorce,mother,sister).Please make these as different as you can manage and write one paragraph per  family type/term.These families  might be real or fictional,from any time  period,families you  personally know (including your own),or families that you've encountered in books or films.The terms can reflect your own  experiences,propose  alternative/creative/fantastical  definitions,or respond critically to the biases, power dynamics,and/or social constructions of more traditional terms.No citations or bibliography are required.

2-Readings

This  reflection(500-750  words)asks students to choose a set of readings and the primary materials

(text,image,video,etc.)discu ssed in one week of the course and write a critical response to the

themes,questions,and points of discussion that come out of these texts.The goal is to critically engage the ideas and offer your own perspectives rather than summarizing the readings.References are not included in the word count.

In both cases,these are not formal essays:rather they are intended to help hone your ability to think critically and in a focused way.

Family Tree

Create a family tree. You can draw or use photos, stock images,illustrations,maps,collaging,and/or

digital visualization tools,such as Canva,etc.to do so.The goal is to visually explore the people you are connected to and how you relate to them.This can be biological and/or chosen family,or any other form. of kinship relation you can think  of(e.g.,pets,food,work,natural  environments).Feel free to be creative and use as much or as lile information as you feel comfortable with.Anonymizing or using pseudonyms to protect this data is welcome and encouraged.

Then,write a positionality paper (700-1000 words)on what you learned about yourself and these relations.What kinds of family structures are you or they a part of?How does/doesn't religion factor into these family stories and relationships?Use at least one of the course readings to support your discussion.   Some research may be required (e.g.,interviewing family members,the history of a nation,religious,or ethnic group).You might also find it useful to build on the ideas explored in the first reflection paper in this essay.

Final Essay or Take-Home Exam

The last assignment is your choice of a final essay(1800-2300 words)or a take-home exam(1800-2300 words). Students will commit to either writing an essay or the take-home exam by an email sent to the instructor(and cc'ing both TAs)by April 9 at noon. Those writing a final paper are free to choose the topic of the final essay,as long as it fits into the general themes of the class.They must include a bibliography with at least four sources,including two from our class.Take-home exams will be based directly on class readings and discussions and do not require additional research. Students will have 72 hours to complete the take-home exam.
