CHMN 597 - Faith and Aesthetics

3 credit hours
In what way does aesthetics interact with our Christian faith? H.R. Rookmaker once declared that for Christians, “Art needs no justification.” How then do we derive meaning from such diverse interpretations? As art and faith are often seen in diametric conflict, how do we find the sacred or sanctity in our creative expression? This class will probe the principles of aesthetic understanding and perspective in light of biblical expression, artistic merit and Christian witness.
