What
section of history and what literature is covered in KONOS HOW Year II?
HOW
II students study Rome from the Roman Republic to Pax Romana to the fall of
Rome. They study the Holy Roman
Empire, Charlemagne, Byzantium, Medieval Europe, the Moslems, the Vikings and
the Chinese. Students receive one
year of credit for history, English, art, Bible, and half year of credit in
Latin, drama, geography, and even worldview/philosophy depending on how
many hours are spent on each.
There is a fabulous study of
the early church and its history which very few non-seminarians know anything
about. One pastor in Ohio has
learned to check the historical accuracy of his upcoming sermon with his 16-year-old daughter because of the vast knowledge, understanding and recall she has due
to her KONOS studies in HOW II.
