In all eras disease has been a shaper of human affairs. It has affected the life of empires and the outcome of wars, helped alter the economy and the structure of society, and evoked outbursts of mass unrest. It continues to challenge the development of civilization. The course examines the impact of disease on Western history; the efforts of Western society to deal with disease through magic, religion, and science; and the role of disease as the theme of art, literature and popular culture.
