Level 1 Module
Spring Semester

This module is designed for anyone who is interested
in music and who would like to know more about chanting and overtone
singing (also known as throat singing). Any tone that we make with
our voice contains a series of hidden tones that we don't normally
hear. Overtone chanting isolates these overtones to produce an often
beautiful sound. This class explores many forms of chanting and
teaches you the first stages of overtoning. If you think that the
human voice can produce only one note at a time, this style of
singing will both surprise and delight! No singing skills are
required. METHODS OF TEACHING: Weekly 2-hour lectures (20

CE4374 - THE NATURE OF THE VOICE AND ITS CARE
Level 1 Module
Spring Semester
10 credits
Among musicians, singers are probably the most aware
of the biological principles that underlie their art. However many
standard texts on singing technique give confused accounts of
breathing and the actions of the larynx. The object of this module
is first, to give a clear and accurate account of laryngeal function
and breathing in the context of singing, and second, to present an
up to date account of the more recent information that has become
available on the physiology of singing and voice care. It will also
deal with hearing in a musical context and its protection from noise
related deafness, and the management of performance-related stress.
Participants will have an opportunity to participate in a practical
session in which they can monitor their breathing movements and
analyse the sound spectrum of their voices to see the effects of
vocal projection. METHODS OF TEACHING: Weekly 2-hour

RELIGIOUS AND
THEOLOGICAL STUDIES MODULES
RT2306 - ANCIENT, MEDIAEVAL AND MODERN JUDAISM
Level 3 Module
Double Semester
20 credits
The module examines the key ideas and principles in
the development and structure of Judaism during the past 2,000 plus
years. As the history of the Jewish religion is hardly separable
from the history of the Jewish people, it also provides an overview
of Jewish history generally, and a more detailed insight into the
history of those periods which are considered of special
significance for the development of religious ideas. The emphasis,
however, is on the intellectual and religious history of Judaism,
the structure of Jewish religious thought, the ideas and events
which have moulded and influenced it, and the challenges it has
faced in ancient, medieval and modern times. METHODS OF
TEACHING: Lectures and seminars METHODS OF
ASSESSMENT: 2 hour examination (worth 75% of the final mark) and

RT3321 - APOCALYPSE NOW! NEW TESTAMENT ESCHATOLOGY
Level 3 Module
Autumn Semester
20 credits
For most people, Revelation is a book that is either
largely ignored, or it is the object of such fanatical study and
fanciful interpretation that it passes from the realm of the
interesting and helpful into the realm of fantasy and speculation.
Much literature has been published in recent years on its
interpretation - some of which is scholarly and technical, and some
of which is populist and accessible. The problem is that the
technical and scholarly material frequently requires careful and
detailed study, combined with an advanced level of knowledge,
whereas much of the populist material tends toward the fanatical and
fanciful. The aim of this module is to bridge this gap, equipping
students to critically evaluate a range of interpretative approaches
to Revelation. Students will also gain confidence in formulating and
articulating their own approach to the Apocalypse, based on
engagement with recent relevant academic scholarship. Methods of
teaching: Lectures and seminars. Methods of assessment: two
essays of 3,000 words each. Contact Religious and Theological
Studies School Office.
RT1339 - BODIES, SPIRITS, AND SOULS: THE PERSON,
ETHICS, AND RELIGION
Level 3 Module
Double Semester
20 credits
This module examines the notion of the person in
Buddhism, Hinduism, and indigenous religions within Africa, the
Americas and Oceania, through a comparative study of ideas about
body, soul, re-birth, and consciousness. Highlighting ethical
debates concerning family, community, gender and violence, it
suggests ways in which these debates have been influenced by
practitioners' engagements (including dream or trance states) with
animals, ancestors, spirits, demons, and deities. The role of
religious specialists such as shamans will be explored, with
reference to issues of power, resistance, and moral authority in the
contemporary world. METHODS OF TEACHING: Lectures and
seminars METHODS OF ASSESSMENT: Two essays of 3,000 words
each. Contact: Religious & Theological Studies School

Kyoto, the Indonesian tsunami, Dolly the sheep, GM
crops, designer babies, the beginning and end of the universe - this
module will explore some of the key questions raised by scientific
discoveries, and address the disputes that have surrounded the
conceptual revolutions in science, especially those brought about by
Galileo, Newton and Darwin. The implications of the discoveries of
chance, design and evolution for our understanding of a creator God
and of human persons will be examined. Natural suffering through
weather patterns and tectonic movements of the crust will be
discussed, and genetic engineering and cloning will be critiqued.
Our ethical approach to the environment and to the use of energy
resources will be explored, and the module will conclude by asking
what meaning and hope is found both within and beyond scientific
research. METHODS OF TEACHING: Lectures and seminars.

RT4207 - EARLY CELTIC RELIGION
Level 2 Module
Spring Semester
20 credits
What did the early Welsh and Irish believe about their
gods and goddesses? What did pre-Christian and early Christian forms
of religion look like in ritual and practice? This module aims to
introduce and investigate these and other questions about the
religions of the Celtic inhabitants of Ireland, the British Isles
and Gaul. Following a number of investigative paradigms, this module
will examine and contextualise the literary and material evidence
for Celtic civilisations up to the Normanization of Britain from the
1100 CE onwards, by critically evaluating the cultural ‘artefacts’
of these societies, including their Myths, Sagas, Annals, Laws,
Saints’ Lives, Archaeology and Inscriptions. The module will also
consider in detail the relationship between other forms of paganism
in this period, principally Greco-Roman religious paradigms, which
will also entail considering the process of Christianisation of
Britain, Ireland and Gaul. METHODS OF TEACHING: Lectures
and seminars. METHODS OF ASSESSMENT: An essay of 4,000
words and a journal of 3,000 words. Contact: Religious and
Theological Studies School Office
RT1215 - EMOTIONS, SYMBOLS, AND RITUALS: STUDYING
SOCIETIES THROUGH FILM
Level 2 Module
Autumn Semester
20 credits
Drawing from the anthropology of religion, this module
uses films and texts to explore the nature of emotions within the
individual and society. Using examples from a number of cultures,
including those of Aboriginal Australia, the Amazon, and Africa, it
suggests ways in which horror, laughter, anger, and love are
expressed and shaped through symbolism. Rites of passage surrounding
birth, marriage, initiation, and death are examined, highlighting
their engagement with the relationship between emotions, symbols,
and the body. While symbols and emotions may be employed to maintain
a sense of balance and harmony in society, they may also express
tensions, divisions, and hierarchies. Problems associated with the
study and interpretation of emotions and symbols will be raised, for
example, women are represented by men, and indigenous peoples are
represented by western scholarship and media. METHODS OF
TEACHING: Lectures and seminars. METHODS OF
ASSESSMENT: Two essays of 3,000 words each. Contact:

RT1214 - THE LIFE OF THE BUDDHA
Level 2 Module
Autumn Semester
20 credits
This module will provide a critical overview of the
ways in which accounts of the life of the Buddha have been a
resource for the fashioning of religious and political identities in
South Asia and beyond. The course will consider the primary source
materials available for the study of the life of the Buddha and
different ways in which these materials have been interpreted by
academics: as sources of historical data, as evidence of the shaping
ideals of the early Buddhist community and as narratives connected
to broader social, political and philosophical debates in South Asia
and beyond. The course will provide a broad examination of the
conventions and functions of biography in relation to scriptural,
inscriptional, and visual evidence in the history of Buddhist
traditions. In particular, it will look at the ways in which the
construction and re-construction of the life of the Buddha can give
us clues concerning changing patterns of historical, political and
religious consciousness amongst Buddhists both within, and beyond,
South Asia. METHODS OF TEACHING: Lectures and seminars.

Bron canrif a hanner ers glaniad y gwladfawyr cyntaf, y mae ymgais wladfaol fwyaf deheuol y Cymry wedi profi’n fenter â chanlyniadau hynod ddiddorol sy’n haeddu astudiaeth fanwl. Bwriad y modiwl hwn yw bwrw golwg ar y Wladfa ers ei sefydlu hyd at y presennol trwy ddefnyddio ystod eang o ffynonellau academaidd a chynnyrch creadigol gan awduron o Gymru a Phatagonia.
