Content
2024-2025
What's the point of theology?
Is theological reflection pointless or useful in the light of the urgent issues of the day?
What tasks, what direction, what relationship with philosophy, the human sciences and, more broadly, contemporary rationalities?
What internal structure and responses to current challenges?
Teaching methods
The teacher proposes a thread of reflection with recommended authors who will be the subject of student interventions and debates during the session.
Evaluation methods
Oral exam of 15 minutes based on a written summary of an A4 recto/verso (1000 words, 6000 characters including spaces) sent to the teacher 48 hours before the exam. In this synthesis, the student proposes a personal and argued answer to the questions dealt with in the course.
