Given its unique blend of indigenous and adapted religious belief systems that constitute its devotional mosaic, Korea is a fascinating site for the exploration of religion. This course will provide an introduction to the historical and contemporary expressions of Korea’s major belief systems, while also giving attention to less well-known religious communities and practices. In particular, students will be given information about religious traditions in Korea within a broader context of world religions, such as shamanism, Buddhism, Confucianism, Christianity, and new religions that have developed since the late nineteenth century.
