Description:

CKR,GS, H, SS - This course examines the social, economic, political, intellectual, and artistic achievements of pre-modern and early modern world civilizations from c.700 C.E. to 1800 C.E. Students will obtain a global perspective by studying different worldviews and social institutions, as well as great systems of thought, religion, science and art as they evolved through this historical period, laying the foundations of the modern world. The increasingly global interaction of cultures in both positive and enriching, and conversely, negative and exploitative ways will also be emphasized. Students will critically examine primary source material, such as written texts, artistic productions and archeological evidence as a complement to information gleaned from secondary sources. Courses in the World Civilizations series (126,127,128) may be taken independently and in any order. Prerequisite(s): Completion of ENGL 090 (formerly ENG 090) with a grade of 2.0 or higher or placement by testing in ENGL 100 (formerly ENG 100).
