Some history courses focus on a broad region over decades, even centuries. This course examines the history of a very small and contested region over a span of more than 3,000 years. Issues we will investigate include: the importance of physical geography, material culture, the Bible, and other ancient texts for understanding the history of ancient Canaan (biblical Israel & Judah) in the context of the ancient Near East; competing conceptions of the Holy Land in the Jewish (Eretz HaKodesh), Christian (Terra Sancta), and Islamic (al-Ard al-Muqaddasa) traditions in antiquity and the middle ages; competing conceptions of the Holy Land in the context of the modern Middle East.
The lectures for this CSU Online course will be available via the Echo360 link on the HIST 436 Canvas Page. The lectures are the lectures for the on-campus section of HIST 436, which will be livestreamed on TR 11:00am–12:15pm (Mountain Time). CSU Online students are welcome to participate in the livestreamed class lectures/discussions via the chat function in Echo360 when their schedules permit.
