Learning outcomes
This course introduces students to the most significant philosophical and religious streams in East and Southeast Asia (particularly in China, Japan, Korea, Vietnam, and Indonesia). At the beginning, students will be introduced to the region's philosophical and religious traditions of thought that have influenced local populations. Special attention will be given to the origins and development of Buddhism, Confucianism, and Islam, which have played a fundamental role in these countries; however, students will also learn about Hinduism, Taoism, Shinto, shamanism, and local animistic cults.
