Description

A survey of edifying classics, which were highly regarded in Lutheran homes as families took on the task of religious education. Luther's Small Catechism, devotional books, hymnals, and song books; Johan Arndt, Pia Desideria, Rosenius, Hallesby are studied. In some cases, novels and films such as "Buddenbrooks" and "Babbette's Feast" are used to teach how a piety was lived and experienced in its own time. Prerequisite: EL1515 Education I.
