Age of Revolution Come join us as we continue the study of how we became the civilization we are and how the civilizations of the past accomplished the things they did.
History is first a story .
It is more important to hear and discuss this story with someone who loves it than to memorize volumes of dates, names and places. Aside from the books and usual student materials students must bring an open mind, an insatiable curiosity, and a willingness to question the past. Emphasis is on the death of the old monarchies and their replacement by revolutionary movements. We will try to understand this unique period when humans first started to ponder the difference between Government as an extension of God and Government as an extension of the people. The student will be able to demonstrate an understanding of the forces that undermined the political stability of the high middle ages.
