I miss University. But it is fun to listen to this as a trudge along doing my meaningless menial job and remember a time when I sat through similar lectures with the firm belief that I was going to be among the movers and shakers of the world to come.
Note to everyone before starting this course series. THIS IS NOT A NARRATIVE COURSE on world history, it is a course on how to THINK about World History. If you want the prior, just read a world history textbook.
Glad to know I'm not the only one having audio problems. What is it with college lectures and absolutely terrible audio/video quality? I could understand if it was a community college or something but even some of the "smartest" schools around can't manage basic audio/video quality. (Previously watched some stuff from Stanford) Also, why is it seems like every history teacher ever has the classroom with the blackboard?
very interesting, but doesnt follow the chapter of the same name too well. If you are just listening I'm all for it, but i wouldnt recommend watching this if you are taking a test on this.
Not that it matters now, but after 50+ hours of these videos, I'm guessing it's either cell phone interference or signal blockage from standing behind that taller podium desk ( vs. the short, flat regular table desk. The audio seems to go NUTS when he is standing behind that podium.
Not the best world history lecture that I have heard. Dude complains about the fact that certain facts we focus on in history are arbitrary and yet he goes on and on about transportation, down to the minutia of carriages.
"After all he was English?!?!" What an idiotic basis of an argument to lecture on the importance of the scientific development in the North of Europe....! That was enough for me at this point.

I'm having trouble determining the order in which I'm supposed to watch the lectures from this course.
This is killing my left ear
History is the reinactmente of the past using our intelligent of the present.
My left ear is now a Humpback carrying the hole lecture.😔😣
This can be a graduate course on modern world history.
Oh god, how am I going to remember all of this?
This guy is so fire
