The paper outlines : 1) what makes nothing human is forever a moral\, 2) how it shapes the an cient and medieval view of cyclical history\, and 3) how it informs Ibn Kh aldun’s philosophy of history.\n DTSTART:20210913T173000Z DTEND:20210913T173000Z SUMMARY:ReOrienting the Global Study of Religion - Waseem El-Rayes URL:/religiousstudies/channels/event/reorienting-globa l-study-religion-waseem-el-rayes-333052 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
