Dear Class,
As promised, here is a more detailed set of instructions for the first assignment, which is due in class on October 9. As part of this assignment, I am also asking you to cite at least three articles or chapters / books. By citing, I mean mentioning some information from that source that provides an example or idea that supports the discussion in your paper.
I will post articles in Drop Box that you can use for citations, but you are free to choose other sources as you may wish. At this moment I have not yet posted the articles to Drop Box, but will try to do so within the next few days. You will get links to those articles by email, so you can easily read them online or download them according to your convenience.
As noted here, you are also welcome to propose writing on a topic of your own choosing, as long as it has to do with any of the three religions that we will have covered in the first half of the term (Christianity, Judaism, Islam). If you choose your topic please check with me to make sure it fits the parameters of this assignment. If you choose your own topic, you still need to cite three sources, but it can be any sources (not only the ones in Drop Box).
