This course has been especially designed as a common course in the SOPHIA Program. As such, this course is meant to introduce students to the language of purpose and vocation and to motivate and inspire them in their search for life meaning and callings. We will examine a series of cultural texts – fiction, poetry, autobiography, memoir, film, and photography – that explore the idea of vocation across cultures, world views, and spiritual traditions with special attention to how these relate to Catholic intellectual tradition and Catholic social teachings.
