Marking Time in the Holidays:
The origin and history of ancient, modern, lunar, solar, and modern religious calendars.
As the holiday season and new year are upon us, this talk addresses the question of how these calendars inform us about how we mark events, years, and days within the major religions of Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and their predecessors.
