Synopsis
In Teaching Interreligious Encounters, editors Marc A. Pugliese and Alexander Y. Hwang have gathered together a multidisciplinary and international group of scholar-teachers to explore the pedagogical issues that occur at the intersection of different religious traditions. This volume is both a theoretical and practical guide for new teachers as well as seasoned scholars. It breaks the pedagogy of interreligious encounters down into five distinct components. In the first part, essays explore the theory of teaching these encounters; in the second, essays discuss course design. The parts that follow engage practical ideas for teaching textual analysis, practice, and real-world application. Despite their disciplinary, contextual, and methodological diversity, these essays share a common vision for the learning goals and outcomes of teaching interreligious encounters. This is a much needed resource for any teacher participating in these conversations.

This collection of essays offers thought-provoking, concrete examples of classroom interactions to those who are interested in developing their pedagogical skills in the university setting. * Stephanie Duclos-King, Religious Studies Review * Most of the contributions emphasize that students can learn something personally valuable and meaningful from studying and especially participating in interactions with people who have religious commitments different than their own. This volume offers a rich set of suggestions about how to design and structure such learning opportunities. * Eugene V. Gallagher, Reflective Teaching * There is a vast array of modes by which the topics are approached, from those that are quite pedagogically theoretical to those that are more descriptive of specific courses, and from those assume a Christian starting part to those that start from other places and traditions or assume no particular confessional base... Overall, I think this is a book that many teachers and instructors will benefit from. * Paul Hedges, Reading Religion *
