CA-IS3721HS

"Introduction to CA-IS3721HS" is a graduate-level course offered at the University of Toronto, typically within the Christianity and the Arts (CA) program. It explores the intersection of Christian theology, spirituality, and the arts, focusing on how artistic expressions—such as literature, visual arts, music, and film—engage with religious themes. The course encourages critical analysis of artistic works through a theological lens, examining their cultural, historical, and spiritual significance. Students may study diverse perspectives, from traditional Christian aesthetics to contemporary interdisciplinary approaches. Key topics include the role of art in worship, the relationship between creativity and faith, and the dialogue between Christianity and modern artistic movements. The course often involves discussions, readings, and creative or reflective assignments. Prerequisites vary, but a background in theology, arts, or humanities is beneficial.
