Begin to analyze Western culture and creatively navigate it as a conservative Muslim. Analyze the literary devices, theme, setting, characters, and plot of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet, comparing its Christian Renaissance culture with traditional Muslim culture, experiencing and navigating the conflict between romantic love and doing the right thing, and imagine how a fallible but faithful and well-educated Muslim in the shoes of the protagonist would play out the series of events that he or she encounters. Students will also apply the principles they learn in this course to an examination of modern LGBQT+ issues.
