This course will introduce major individuals, events, and movements that have played a formative role in shaping the present notion of Western Civilization. Discussions in class will teach you how to analyze primary sources and use them both to understand perspectives from the past and to form historical arguments. To learn about the past we will consider not only texts but sometimes also such highly visual media as pottery, city planning, architecture, and painting.
