HNSM 165 - Suffering, Grace, and Redemption

3 hours
Flannery O’Connor once stated that “there is no suffering greater than what is caused by the doubts of those who want to believe.” In this freshmen honors seminar, students will read, think, speak and write about what it means to suffer toward understanding -one’s own faith or non-faith, as well as one’s societal, familial, or intellectual place in society, in general. Students will be challenged to read carefully and to think deliberately about our common course text, Dostoevsky’s The Brothers Karamazov, as well as works from various authors, including O’Connor, C.S. Lewis, Mark Twain, and others.
