| Description: | FRESHMEN ONLY SECTION HIS 200-01/01F: A History of the End of the World How will the world end? When will the world end? Will the world end at all? While many recall the May 21, 2011 "deadline" of Harold Camping's Family Radio caravans and the "ending" of the Mayan calendar in December 2012, these questions have provoked the human imagination for millennia. This course will study the history of how these questions have been posed and answered from Jewish and Christian communities in the ancient Mediterranean world to Christians in medieval Europe to contemporary America. Using the lenses of social and cultural history, we will examine how these apocalyptic ideologies have been shaped by historical events and how subgroups have interacted with, and often changed, society.
