Europe, from Hammurabi to Columbus. Heyday of ancient Near East, Late Middle Ages. Culture, European interactions with wider world through religion, conquest, and trade. Beginning of the age of discoveries. prereq: Fr or soph or non-hist major
Class Description:
The course covers the history of western civilization from its beginnings in Mesopotamia until the medieval period in Europe. It introduces students to key beliefs, cities, texts, and structures associated with the peoples of the ancient near east, Egypt, and the Hellenic Aegean. With the beginning of the Common Era, the course turns to the role of the monotheistic tradition and its scriptural legacy. It then focuses on the new institutions of Roman government and empire and the impact they had on the consolidation of Charlemagne's Holy Roman Empire. Students learn about the division of power between the papal and monarchical institutions, the agrarian and commercial changes that occurred, the developments of new technologies, and the maritime expansions in the Mediterranean and beyond. The course presents a chronological narrative, from around the third millennium BCE to the period after the Black Death of the mid-fourteenth century, and covers a geography that extends from the Euphrates to the Thames, and from Arabia to Iberia. Alongside their study of a history textbook, students read from primary sources in historiography, theology, literature, law, and philosophy. These texts serve as documents that link the historical events with the intellectual expressions ? from the laws of Hammurabi to the architecture of medieval cathedrals: Lynn Hunt et als., The Making of the West : Peoples and Cultures, vol. I ? to 1740; and Sources of the Making of the West, vol. 1 - to 1740 ed. Katharine J. Lualdi. The course emphasizes the continuity in western civilization and shows how many of the ideas, social customs, and political theories of the past remain present in the modern world. Along with a midterm and a final, students write a research paper, submitting a rough draft for comments and then a corrected final version.
