Description
Summary:This paper will came up with a content analysis of two course textbooks used in swedish high school. The question that will be used is as follows: "How are the selected key concepts in religions Hinduism and Buddhism explained in the course Religious Studies Specialization coursebooks " En människa, tusen världar "and" Religionskunskap 1: om mening, värde och tro". The key concepts in Hinduism are: trimurti, atman, samsara, karma, moksha, the varnasystem, dharma, important books, branches and the Indo-Aryans. In Buddhism there are: Buddha, the four noble truths, the noble eightfold path, karma, nirvana, directions, the three jewels, the three baskets, the bodhisattva and the temple life. " It should be said that "En människa, tusen världar" are written by Robert Tuveson and " Religionskunskap 1: om mening, värde och tro " are written by Olof Franck. The method I will use is content analysis. The conclusions reached by this bachelor's thesis are that Hinduism and buddhism chapter in the work "En människa, tusen världar" tells in more detail when it comes to the key concepts than Tuveson's chapters on Hinduism and Buddhism.
