In the instructor’s interpretation, “Western Civilization I” is a panoramic study of the civilization of the Western world from antiquity to the early modern era. The course will broadly survey the major attributes, personages, and events associated with the ancient Near East, Greece, and Rome; the Middle Ages; and the Renaissance, Reformation, and early modern Europe. At the forefront of the material covered in this class will be the major political, spiritual, and philosophical concepts of Western civilization that have molded and still impact our own culture today.
