RS 252 — Religions and African Worldview
BA BA Religious Studies · Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology
Missionary faiths in Africa like Christianity and Islam were introduced to Africans with Euro-American and Arabic cultural worldview. However, African worldview has remained a major component in religious interpretation and perception in Africa. The course is designed to highlight the African worldview and its place in religious interpretation. Attention will be given to the significant phenomenon of oral theology and history. The course will further throw light on the religious beliefs and practices, folklores, symbols, proverbs and cultural institutions with the primary intention of broadening the horizons of students as regards the universe and the environment within which religion operates.
