Course Description
This course examines the subject of race and ethnicity in early Christian Studies. The course pursues this study with respect to the texts and contexts of early Christianity as well as with regard to the modern and postmodern interpretation of such texts and contexts. The course includes readings in the areas of: racial-ethnic studies, the historical theorization of the concepts of race and ethnicity and related concepts; classical studies, the construction and deployment of such categories in the world and study of the Roman Empire; and early Christian studies, the recourse to and use of such categories in the world and study of early Christianity. By the end of the course, students should be able to use theories of race and ethnicity in order to inform their interpretations of biblical texts about foreigners and outsiders. Many biblical texts divide people into categories that most modern interpreters intuitively refer to as ethnic or even racial groups, such as Jews, Galileans, Samaritans, Greeks, and Romans. Students gain a better understanding of how to theoretically, exegetically, and theologically engage these passages, and determine for themselves whether race and ethnicity are appropriate terms to use when interpreting biblical texts. Students should also have a better sense of how to ethically and theologically wrestle with texts that portray foreigners and other outsiders negatively and promote acts of violence against them. Textbooks: David D. Fiensy and James Riley Strange, IN THE LATE SECOND TEMPLE AND MISHNAIC PERIODS; Sean Freyne, JESUS AND THE GOSPELS: LITERARY APPROACHES AND HISTORICAL INVESTIGATIONS.

Course Description

The goal of this course is in introducing popular skills for analyzing economic data. We attempt to achieve this goal by getting familiar with the well-known econometric analyses and linking this to the knowledge on the numerical outputs generated by standard statistical packages. In attaining this goal, our interests will be focused more on cross-sectional data and their slight extensions. There are two reasons for this focus. First, analysis of cross-sectional data is a building bloc for the analysis of many other data sets. Second, the analysis of cross-sectional data is easier than analyzing other data sets as they do not involve too much complication that comes from the variation assumptions. Eventually, by these, studying cross-sectional data becomes a good starting point for achieving the specified objectives, even though their applicability is not so limited. After completing this course, students are expected to be able to conduct the following: Understanding the implicit assumptions behind economic data analysis; Interpreting the numerical outputs generated by standard statistical packages.

Prerequisite: Mathematics for economics and statistics; Recommended: Mathematical statistics.
