THE MICHIGAN DAILY FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1963 THE MICHIGAN DAILY FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER ~7, 196~3 a . _ _ - Te :_ !JGION, AMERICAN STUDIES: Honors Program Offers Two New Courses By GAIL BLUMBERG o new courses, American Evaluation and the Nature eligion, have been added to onors program. e Nature of Religion course is mprehensive -two semester e taught by Prof. Louis Or- f the department of Near ein Languages and Litera- * The course examines religion igh a variety of disciplines. ereas the University provides amination of religion through ology, sociology, philosophy, 'opology, or history, this new e attempts to widen its scope embrace all of these aspects in order to develop a cohesive and integrated study of the true na- ture of religion, Prof. Orlin said. Ultimate Concern As an ultimate concern of hu- man life, a study of the sacred leads to a more comprehensive study of human activity, he added. The study is opened by viewing the sacred in human life, with th objective aspects of religion stud- ied in perspective to their place in world groups. Thus, instead of Lehigh Sets TJAI~l'il gI nnovations an ideological, doctrinal study, re- ligion, as it has been practiced in society, is examined, he said. Six religions, Old Testament Hebrew, Judaism, Christianity, Is- lam, Buddhism and Hinduism, as well as ancient Near Eastern re- ligions, are used as a core. Define Values This approach is used to help define the value system of a re- ligious community through sym- bolic literature, dance, law, ritual and world outlook. The formation of the obligations of holy and sacred principles and the virtues of the deity are seen as reflections of such a group, Prof. Orlin con- tinued. The course progresses into the psychological aspects and the philosophical view of the universe as found in a religion's ideological and sacred legends and literature. Finally, the function of religion is studied in a historical context. This honors course is an out- growth of the continued interest of the University in a studies in religion program. Prof. Orlin de- clared that most courses, espe- cially those given in state and city supported institutions, seem reluctant to deal with religion be- yond the surface. American Self-Evaluation is taught by Prof. Allan Seager of the English department. The course is an attempt to use first hand source material to determine the contemporary attitudes of the American populace during certain eras. Instead of studying what an age of people did, the emphasis will be on what they thought they were doing. Early America The first period of study is that of the early American colonization. This is to be followed by the im- mediate pre-revolutionary era with thought attached to the point when Americans actually began to consider themselves Americans rather than British subjects. The next era of study, the Civil War, will .draw on contemporary source material such as diaries and military records. Finally, the study of the modern age will attempt to help students decide what they and their con- temporaries are trying to do. This will be accompanied by the critical analysis of current political and economic documents. Across Campus "The American Race Crisis and the World" will be the topic of a lecture by James Robinson at 4:10 p.m. today in Aud. A.
