Teaching the Reformation in a Pluralist Age
This NEH-funded institute is intended for humanities colleagues who teach history survey courses. It will focus on the Reformation's key themes, connect these to broader topics in western and world history, and suggest ways to make the Reformation's significance come
alive for undergraduates. Topics include Reformation theology, lay piety, religious and political power, the role of women, the impact of printing, art and iconoclasm, and the Reformation's impact in border areas, especially in Eastern Europe. Karin Maag, Director of the Meeter Center for Calvin Studies at Calvin College, will lead the institute. Visiting lecturers include Robin Barnes, Ward Holder, Henry Luttikhuizen, Graeme Murdock, Charles Parker, Larissa Taylor, and Merry Wiesner-Hanks. The institute will take place from June 25 to July 13, 2007, at Calvin College in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Participants receive a $2,400 stipend for the three weeks. For more information and application materials, please contact Karin Maag: kmaag@calvin.edu. The deadline for applications is March 1, 2007.
