The 14th-century World

Thousand Oaks Library Lecture Series

The 14th-century World

Pulitzer Prize–winning historian Barbara Tuchman explored the life of the 14th century, primarily in western Europe, in her 1978 book A Distant Mirror: The Calamitous 14th Century. Four decades later, this series of lectures by Cal Lutheran faculty members also examines the 14th century, taking a more global approach with discussion of Europe, the Middle East, Asia, Africa, North and South America, and the Far East. 

In this lecture, Michaela Reaves (History) will speak on the Americas. The lecture series will conclude on March 15 with a discussion on religious change by Kapp Johnson (Religion and Management).

Admission is free. The Grant Brimhall Library is located at 1401 E. Janss Road in Thousand Oaks.
