| Zusammenfassung: | In Canadian universities in the early 1960s, no courses were offered on Hinduism, Buddhism, or Islam. Only the study of Christianity was available, usually in a theology program in a church college or seminary. Today almost every university in North America has a religious studies department that offers courses on Western and Eastern religions as well as religion in general. Harold Coward addresses this change in this memoir of his forty-five-year career in the development of religious studies as a new academic field in Canada. He also addresses the shift from theology classes in seminaries to non-sectarian religious studies faculties of arts and humanities; the birth and growth of departments across Canada from the 1960s to the present; the contribution of McMaster University to religious studies in Canada and Coward's Ph. D. experience there; the Centre for Studies in Religion and Society at the University of Victoria; and the future of religious studies as a truly interdisciplinary enterprise. Coward's retrospective, while not a history as such, documents information from his varied experience and wide network of colleagues that is essential for a future formal history of the discipline. His story is both personally engaging and richly informative about the development of the field. -- Provided by publisher. |

Waterloo, Ontario, Canada : Wilfrid Laurier University Press, [2014] ©2014 1 online resource text txt rdacontent computer c rdamedia online resource cr rdacarrier Editions SR Includes bibliographical references and index. Preface -- 1 Early Days: From Theology in Seminaries to Non-sectarian Religious Studies -- 2 The Golden Decade 1966-1976 -- 3 McMaster Days: My Personal Experiences of McMaster in the Early 1970s -- 4 McMaster's Contribution to Religious Studies in Canada -- 5 Growing into Maturity: Development of Religious Studies Departments from the Late 1970s to the Present -- 6 The Centre for Studies in Religion and Society at the University of Victoria -- 7 Taking Seriously Our Interdisciplinary Heritage: The Future of Religious Studies -- 8 Conclusion. In Canadian universities in the early 1960s, no courses were offered on Hinduism, Buddhism, or Islam. Only the study of Christianity was available, usually in a theology program in a church college or seminary. Today almost every university in North America has a religious studies department that offers courses on Western and Eastern religions as well as religion in general. Harold Coward addresses this change in this memoir of his forty-five-year career in the development of religious studies as a new academic field in Canada. He also addresses the shift from theology classes in seminaries to non-sectarian religious studies faculties of arts and humanities; the birth and growth of departments across Canada from the 1960s to the present; the contribution of McMaster University to religious studies in Canada and Coward's Ph. D. experience there; the Centre for Studies in Religion and Society at the University of Victoria; and the future of religious studies as a truly interdisciplinary enterprise. Coward's retrospective, while not a history as such, documents information from his varied experience and wide network of colleagues that is essential for a future formal history of the discipline. His story is both personally engaging and richly informative about the development of the field. -- Provided by publisher. Religion Study and teaching (Higher) Canada History 20th century.
