This course examines the history of the idea of "the West" from its beginnings in ancient times through the birth of Christianity and the evolution of the largely Christian "western" world. It also looks closely at the notion of "Israel" from the very dawn of Jewish history, and the interaction of that notion with western history and with Islamic history. Finally,  it looks specifically at interactions between and among Jews, Christians and Moslems from the birth of each of theses people to contemporary times, including Jews and Christians living in Moslem lands and  Muslims living in Jewish and/or Christian lands.
