Omschrijving	Overview of the History of Christianity from ca. 300-ca. 1500 with a focus on the making of Christian traditions and the connection to other religion in the regions in which Christianity functioned. In the course, we will reflect on the role of cultural traditions in the making of Christian theology and practice, and upon its dynamic nature. We will discuss how what is seen as a part of the tradition varies according to context, as determined by relations of power and other aspects. The continuities and discontinuities between the late antique, medieval and early modern past and what current denominations in Christianity claim as their tradition will be discussed.
