Course Overview
The history of human civilization is an astonishing story of migration, innovation, and social development. Over 200,000 years, humans have populated the planet, adapted to environmental challenges, experimented with systems of government, and left such a strong mark on the earth that scientists now refer to our era as the Anthropocene—the era of humanity.
Now, the exciting new field of Big History allows us to explore human civilizations in ways unavailable to historians of previous generations. Scholars of this multidisciplinary approach study great spans of time, unlocking important themes, trends, and developments from around the world that have occurred over millennia.
The Big History of Civilizations is your chance to apply this leading edge historical approach to the epic story of humanity around the world. Taught by acclaimed Professor Craig G. Benjamin of Grand Valley State University, these 36 sweeping lectures trace the story of human civilizations from our evolution as a species, through our major adaptations and revolutions, and into the future.
Unlike a traditional survey of history—with its focus on dates and events, kings and battles—Big History takes an expansive approach that allows you to:
Ask the big questions about the rise of civilizations around the world, and lay out key similarities and differences among different civilizations.
Consider the necessary conditions for modern civilizations to exist, from trade and media of exchange to ideas about religion and approaches to governance.
Find out how the environment—including geography and climate—has driven human migration and population growth over the millennia.
Examine the evolution and adaptations of our species to discover what makes humans unique in the animal kingdom.
Draw from the work of anthropologists, biologists, geneticists, chemists, linguists, and more to gain deeper insights into human history.
It only takes a few minutes of one lecture for you to discover that Big History offers a distinctive vantage point from which to view the story of humanity. Its grand vision will give you powerful new insights into human civilization, and it offers a profound analysis of some of our biggest questions: What makes us human? Where did we come from? And where are we going? There are no easy answers, but The Big History of Civilizations frames them in a unique and captivating way.
