My classes are proceeding. This year I’ve added classes on The Seven Decades 1806-1875, The Seven Classical Centuries, and The Seven Most Recent Decades 1946-2015. The class on Big History has been much improved. A sister website to support these classes will be launched this year. The domain name historyed.site has been reserved.
