REL019.25: Religions of the Caribbean

Last offered 18S

This is an introductory course that explores African-derived religious practices of the Caribbean. Drawing on works of fiction, social science and historical studies, the course uses the African and Caribbean diaspora as analytical frameworks to understand the role of religion in diasporic communities. The course will explore the effect of New World slavery and migration and the process of creolization on Afro-religious practices. While the course focuses predominantly on the English-speaking Caribbean, we will also examine traditions in the French- and Spanish-speaking Caribbean, including Brazil. Open to all.
