Abstract
Description
This course will provide you with a broad outline of World History from its origins to 1500. The course will cover the origins of humankind, our organization into cities, states, and empires, our social tendencies, economic needs, and spiritual wants. The heart of the course is to compare and contrast civilizations and cultures from five key regions: the Fertile Crescent, India, Africa, Eurasia, and the Americas. We will learn how to think historically, use a variety of sources, and apply good reading and writing skills. The goal for this course is to foster openness and appreciation for other cultures, and encourage you to think creatively about modern society and your own position within it.
