Course Description: Fall 2006 
The Western Tradition is a two-semester course, built around the classroom lectures of Eugen Weber, internationally renowned author, historian, and professor at the University of California, Los Angeles. Professor Weber spins thousands of years into a seamless story, making the abstract more concrete and developing the ability of students to analyze and appreciate history. By weaving together history, art, literature, religion, geography, government and economics, The Western Tradition helps students recognize the pendulum swings of history, identify parallels in the modern world, and gain a sense of their own place in the evolution of human institutions. Part I begins with the influential pre-Western civilizations and continues through the classic period to the High Middle Ages. The Western Tradition was produced by WGBH/Boston, in cooperation with Annenberg/CPB. Closed captioned for the hearing impaired. General Info: Fall 2006 General Schedule: September 2 – November 25
