EarthDiverse Course: A History of the Apocalypse
EarthDiverse is pleased to announce it's latest course: HIS221: "A History of the Apocalypse" with Peter Dornauf, starting this Wednesday 29 October 11:00am-1:00pm and lasting for 3 consecutive Wednesdays.
We live in dramatic times globally. Future prospects for our planet are dire. Repent: The End of the World is near! This course asks why such scenarios have such a profound hold on the human psyche? The answer: history needs endings to make satisfying tales with a nice dramatic arc. Apocalypse is the ultimate story. History with no ending is just a meaningless sequence of events. This series of talks traces the history of the end of the world from biblical times down
to our own ecological disaster fears today.
