Faith and Culture
A new Tuesday evening course on the European theological novel is being offered during the fall quarter,open to auditors as well as to students taking it for credit. Taught by Professor C. John Miller, the class will explore themes in Camus, Dostoevsky, Golding, Greene, and Kafka, with particular attention to the "hurt" in modern man in relation to the healing found in the gospel.
Dr. Miller, a former college teacher of literature, is assistant professor of practical theology at Westminster. He received his doctorate in June from the University of the Pacific. His thesis dealt with James Fenimore Cooper's attempt in his last five novels to criticize American civilization from a Christian point of view.
This evening course is the first of three to be given during Westminster Seminary's fortieth academic year relating the Christian faith to modern culture. The second course is an introduction to Christian poets, and the third will provide a broad perspective of man in contemporary culture, according to President Clowney.
