RELIGION AND CULTURE IN AFRICA The DEPARTMENT OF RELIGIOUS STUDIES offers the Honours course - REL4053F RELIGION AND CULTURE IN AFRICA A/Prof Asonzeh Ukah This course is an exploration of African religions and culture. It will provide in-depth discussions of principal and fundamental issues and themes concerning African culture and African Traditional Religions, beginning with issues revolving around the academic study of African religions. Some concepts and world-views that are ordinarily considered to be uniquely African will be analysed. We will also examine a select set of issues and historical developments in the cultural thinking of Africans about Africa. Selected case-studies of Islamic and Christian religious culture in Africa will also be explored during the course.
