Christology and Salvation

Education facts

Code: RT2317

Thinking about Jesus Christ (Christology) and the question of salvation has in many ways always been at the centre of Christian theology. In this course you will study how these themes emerged, developed, and are discussed today. It will be important to understand how Christology is interconnected with the doctrine of salvation, and how these are integrated into wider theological frameworks. But it will also be crucial to understand how the theology is related to other philosophical and ethical questions: What is a human being? What is the meaning of freedom? How do we live a good life? The course I focused around the reading and discussing of primary texts.
