Description: The History of Christianity is a two-term course spanning the approximately two thousand-year history of Christianity in its many forms. This type of course is frequently called “Church History.” However, for reasons that we will discuss in the course itself, we have chosen to refer to it by the name The History of Christianity. In the spring term we will cover from the first century through the prelude to the Reformation in Europe. In the fall term we will examine the history from the time of the reformation to our present day. During this course, we will pay particular attention to the relationship between Christianity in Europe and the Jewish people with whom it came into contact.
