³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ

By Lucy Barnhouse

In this course, we will study ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ from 500 to 1500 C.E., with an emphasis on social institutions. The thousand-year period often known as the Middle Ages (roughly 500-1500 C.E.) was a period of vibrant life and sometimes violent change.

Our goal this semester is to understand how people in the pre-modern world (that is, prior to 1800), particularly in ³Ô¹ÏºÚÁÏ, discussed, reacted, and tried to remedy contagious diseases before the advent of modern medicine and scientific understandings of immunology and virology.
