Mesopotamian religion was polytheistic with over 3,600 gods, the Enuma Elish and Epic of Gilgamesh were key texts, and they believed in a dismal afterlife. Egyptian religion was also polytheistic but with a unified pantheon of gods reflecting the political structure; the Book of the Dead details the afterlife which was seen as glorious.

He was a dedicated student and teacher who studied and wrote extensively on Aristotle and natural science.

The Great Chain of Being was a philosophy popular during Shakespeare's time that viewed all things in the universe as being linked in a hierarchical order. At the top were God and angels, followed by humans in descending order of social status, then animals, plants, and minerals. Each link had its own inner hierarchy. The human hierarchy placed the monarch at the top as closest to God, and serfs at the bottom. Shakespeare explored the themes of this philosophy, such as the chaos that results from disrupting the proper order, as when a king loses power or status is not maintained.Justice & Power, session ii, Plato

Classical Greece emerged from prehistoric times in the Aegean area starting around 2900 BC. The earliest civilization was the Minoan civilization on Crete, uncovered in the early 20th century. The Minoans built the first major cities like Knossos, home to an impressive palace, and had a wealthy, literate culture as seen through artwork depicting bull leaping.

This document discusses hagiography, which are writings about saints' lives and martyrdom that were intended to educate readers on virtues and inspire emulation of saints, rather than provide strictly historical accounts. It provides definitions and terminology related to hagiography and the cult of saints. It also discusses how historians in Late Antiquity had different approaches than modern historians, prioritizing edification over chronology and impartiality. The document examines themes commonly found in saints' lives and provides perspectives on hagiography from several scholars including Peter Brown, Averil Cameron, and David Brakke.lecture 1.pptx

This document discusses claims that Jesus was simply a copy of pagan god myths and that Christianity borrowed from other religions. It summarizes the views of several people who have made these claims, such as Dan Brown, Timothy Freke/Peter Gandy, and Acharya S. However, it also questions the credibility and reliability of these sources. It notes that many of their assertions are not supported by reputable scholars or historical sources. The document then provides more context about the origins of these ideas and criticisms of the sources used to support these pagan copy theories. Overall, it casts doubt on the pagan copy claims by highlighting issues with the sources and evidence used to make these comparisons to pagan gods.Is Jesus Just A Copy Of Pagan Gods

It presents counterarguments to claims that Jesus was just a copy of Horus, Krishna, and other pagan gods.

Experts in religions like Hinduism have stated there is no evidence for claims that Krishna was crucified or resurrected.

This summarizes the document's discussion of the angelology in the Apocalypse of Abraham. Specifically, it focuses on the description of the angel Yahoel, who acts as Abraham's celestial guide. Scholars have noted that Yahoel is depicted as having the body of a griffin, which is unusual.

Mircea Eliade was a Romanian historian of religion born in 1907 who studied Hinduism in India. He later taught comparative religion in Paris and Chicago. Eliade believed that religious people experience time as both sacred and profane, while non-religious people see time as homogeneous. For Eliade, the sacred is manifested through hierophanies, cratophanies, and ontophanies, and provides order and meaning for religious people through myths and rituals that allow participation in primordial sacred time. Eliade studied how archaic societies constructed sacred space and symbolism to participate in the divine cosmos.Politics of modernities

The French Revolution was caused by financial troubles for the crown, resentment of the privileged social system, and Enlightenment ideas spreading among the populace. In 1789, King Louis XVI called the Estates General to address fiscal issues but tensions rose as the Third Estate demanded more representation. The Tennis Court Oath and storming of the Bastille radicalized the Revolution. The National Assembly adopted the Declaration of Rights of Man as the monarchy was abolished and a republic established. However, internal divisions and war with European nations led to the Reign of Terror under Robespierre and the guillotining of tens of thousands, including Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette.
