Description:

Rising from the background of Greece, Rome, and Persia, Islamic culture melded together aspects from each. We will see how this happened and then examine some of the Arabic, Persian, and Turkish contributions. Topics for discussion will include art, law, cultural exchange, and daily life.

Instructor Rudi Paul Lindner has taught Islamic history at the university level for over fifty years.

This class meets on Wednesdays, from April 13 – May 4. No classes on holidays.

Pre-registration is required via the OLLI website or phone. A link to access the study group will be e-mailed to you approximately one week prior to the first session.
