HIST 237 - Jerusalem through the Ages(4)
This course introduces students to the history and geography of the region commonly known as the “Holy Land.” Together we will examine this region from three main viewpoints: 1) as a geographic, social, cultural, economic, and religious crossroads; 2) as a fluctuating religious construct; 3) as a meeting place of three great monotheistic religions: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. By examining these issues, we will aim to come to a better understanding of the legacy of the Holy Land for modern civilizations as well.
