Big History: The Big Bang, Life on Earth, and the Rise of Humanity. by Christian, David,actor.; The Great Courses (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
David ChristianOriginally produced by The Great Courses in 2008.How is it possible for the disciplines of cosmology, geology, anthropology, biology, and history to fit together? These 48 lectures by Professor David Christian of Macquarie University (Sydney, Australia) answer that question by weaving a single story from accounts of the past developed by a variety of scholarly disciplines. The result is a tale stretching from the origins of the universe to the present day and beyond, in which human history is seen as part of the history of our Earth and biosphere, and the Earth's history, in turn, is seen as part of the history of the universe. It's no wonder that Bill Gates declared this to be his favorite Great Course!Like traditional creation stories told by the world's great religions and mythologies, this lecture series provides a map of our place in space and time. But it does so using the insights and knowledge of modern science, as synthesized by a renowned historian. While you may have heard parts of this story before in courses on geology, history, anthropology, biology, cosmology, and other scholarly disciplines, Professor Christian provides more than just a recap of those disciplines. "To understand ourselves," says Professor Christian, "we need to know the very large story, the largest story of all." And that, perhaps, is one of the greatest benefits of Big History: It provides a thought-provoking way to help us understand our own place within the Universe.Mode of access: World Wide Web.

Wonders of Volcanoes with Dara Ó Briain. by Ó Briain, Dara,actor.; BBC Studios (Firm),dst; Kanopy (Firm),dst;
Dara Ó BriainOriginally produced by BBC Studios in 2025.Embark on a journey from Etna to Vesuvius and witness one of Earth’s most fearsome natural wonders. Both dazzling and destructive, volcanoes have fascinated and frightened us for millennia. The mythical home of the gods, these mountains of fire can bury cities and trigger tsunamis, yet they also hold hidden treasures and create fertile soils. Dara Ó Briain marvels at Italy’s lava fountains, drinks wines grown on volcanic slopes, meets the people who call volcanoes home, and learns how volcanoes have defined the country’s fortunes and impacted its culture for centuries. He also asks whether something that holds the key to so much of our understanding of the world could also be the greatest threat to it.Mode of access: World Wide Web.
