The Genesis of Pop

Catalog description

The Bible may well be the first piece of "fanboy" literature in history. While simultaneously being the most popular book in publication, it is also the inspiration for much of our modern pop culture. This semester we will be discovering how the Bible is reflected in pieces of popular culture on YouTube, TikTok, Instagram and more. The interplay between the Bible and art has been taking place for thousands of years. Throughout this semester we will discuss this as well as focusing on how they inform each other. Would Pop Culture even exist without the Bible?
