Religious Roots of Europe (RRE) is a two-year master’s programme, taught in English, and offered in collaboration between Lund University, the University of Copenhagen, and the University of Oslo. The programme focuses on how Judaism, Christianity, and Islam emerged during Late Antiquity and influenced each other.
During the programme, you will gain in-depth knowledge of how Judaism, Christianity, and Islam emerged and developed – both individually and in relation to one another. You will study the religions’ texts, ideas, and traditions from a comparative perspective and see how they have been used historically and in contemporary society. In addition, you will have the opportunity to study languages such as Greek, Latin, Hebrew, or Arabic and read texts in their original language.
