Course Description: This is the second in a pair of courses which comprise a connected narrative of western culture from ancient Greece to the twentieth century.  While highlighting key people, places and events, we will examine such issues as church and state, public versus private interest, human identity, and worldview construction.  Each period will be examined by weaving literature and philosophy into the fabric of history.  Course fulfills Humanities or elective credit hours.
