Interesting Course for Spring: REL-B420 Topics in Hindu Religious Traditions

REL-B420 Topics in Hindu Religious Traditions: The Indian Epic in Comparative Perspective (CSA; A&H)

Section 27850, Tuesday/Thursday 02:30P-03:45P, Woodburn Hall 116

Professor: Rebecca J. Manring
213 Sycamore Hall
855-6756
rmanring@indiana.edu

What is our duty as human beings? In this course we will explore how ancient Indian intellectuals answered this question. The Mahābhārata is one of the foundational texts of Indian civilization and is a world classic offering tremendous mythic and psychological insight into the human condition. We will examine that classical Indian epic, stressing its role as a living tradition that is constantly being recreated and reinterpreted. We’ll read significant excerpts from the epic itself, alongside recent scholarship on its literary, religious and historical contexts. We’ll also consider it as performance tradition and so will view and discuss recordings of several modern stagings of the Mahābhārata. Students will also consider recent novels (all available, if not originally written, in English) treating sections of the epic.

Class meetings will include a great deal of discussion. We will also make use of video materials and lecture, to help bring the material alive in the classroom. Students will be responsible for leading discussion for at least two class meetings, and will complete six short written assignments and one final project.

The primary purpose of this course is for you to gain an appreciation of the past, present, and no doubt future significance of this epic in India. You should leave this course with the ability to spot references to the text in news reports, popular cinema, and even casual conversation. You should also gain the following from your participation in this class:
- Familiarity with the complex notion of dharma in Indian society;
- A keener awareness of how the epic genre embodies cultural norms and transcends time;
- An appreciation, if not love, of Indian literature in different eras.

New India Studies core/intro course I-100

India Studies I-100: Introduction to India
30952 1:25-2:15 MW; 7:15 pm film screenings on Wednesdays
Friday small group discussion sections

Introduction to India, organized historically, gives students basic cultural literacy about India. Readings and lectures provide cultural and historical context, and offer critical comment. Visiting lecturers selected from among the faculty who work in the region come M/W; Friday’s class is divided among the core instructor and the AIs for discussion of that week’s material. Weekly film screenings serve as a jumping-off point for further discussion in the small section meetings on Fridays and provide an additional angle on the material covered in the week’s readings, allowing students to hone critical reading/viewing skills.

The first half of the course will examine the birth of the modern Indian nation. To that end, the course will be divided into 4 units, beginning with Partition (3 weeks). Partition raises questions about what led to Partition, and so we turn next to Colonialism (3 weeks). After centuries of foreign rule, why did European colonialism lead to India’s very bloody birth in partition? Colonialism, too, raises questions about the environment (physical, social, political, religious, etc.) the colonizers found, and the next unit covers the ancient and medieval (2 ½ weeks) periods. And finally we return to contemporary India (6 ½ weeks).

The goal of the course is to help students gain cultural literacy about India. By the end of the semester students will understand India within a global context, and have knowledge of the issues, processes, trends and systems that have led to the Republic of India of today. Students will learn to work within Indian frames of reference and perspectives to think critically and solve problems. Faculty’s collective love of the region will lead students to appreciate the arts, religions, philosophies and material cultures under consideration, so that they will become inspired to explore further through more classes and overseas study. Reading assignments will provide critical background that will enrich the film viewings and inform the Friday discussion sessions, and help maintain the thread of continuity throughout the course.

TEACH FOR AMERICA: DEADLINE APPROACHING
Next Deadline for Teach for America: Friday, December 17 at 12 a.m. EST

By the time they reach fourth grade, children living in low-income communities are already two to three grades behind their higher-income peers, and just half of them will graduate from high school. However, we at Teach for America believe that when these children are provided with high-quality teachers, these numbers can be dramatically different. Therefore, we seek our nation's future leaders--outstanding recent college graduates and professionals from all majors and backgrounds--to commit two years to teach in our lowest-income communities and join a movement to ensure educational opportunity for all.

This year alone, 8200 Teach For America teachers are working to revolutionize the educational opportunities for more than 550,000 students in low-income communities around the country. Additionally, more than 20,000 alumni are currently advocating for these students in fields such as business, law, medicine, and more. Will you be the next leader to join this movement?

To apply for Teach for America's December 17th deadline, visit https://www.teachforamerica.org/online/info/index.jsp.

Tonight: SAMMELSURIUM--*U.S. Premiere* @7pm, IU Fine Arts 015

Tonight, Thursday, December 2nd, our second U.S. premiere and final film of the DEFA
Dialogues: 5 Film Rediscoveries!
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
Join us @ 7pm in the Fine Arts Auditorium 015 on the Indiana University-Bloomington campus for:

SAMMELSURIUM [Hotch Potch]--a fascinating documentary by Volker Koepp, the top documentarian of the German Democratic Republic. Subtitled for the first time for this Bloomington screening!

"The landscapes, objects, and sounds of a recent past slipping into history...! Exquisite cinematography by Thomas Plenert (The Wall, Locked Up Time, Herzsprung). A thoughtful film that does not force positions, but offers views, contexts, and processes just at the point of disappearance, irrelevance, and obscurity...A film that stems the tide of this hasty departure by lingering over trinkets, monuments, and architectures just before they hit the crucial drop in the waterfall and are seen and understood no more. A true treasure chest or time capsule."
-B. Wagner, IU DEFA Project

"Koepp's tone is far from elegiac — he collects images as a sign of the pastness of the GDR. Nevertheless, his SAMMELSURIUM has its own eloquence. [...] Koepp has managed to find a visceral image of the violence and abruptness of the Wende."
-Inez Hedges
***************
Followed by a discussion with Ben Robinson and Brigitta Wagner of IU Germanic Studies @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
