the best known image from the Altarpiece. See also the dazzling
Resurrection panel.

Students who have not taken Hist. 220 or Hist. 223 must have the permission of the instructor to
take Hist. 403. This depends on an interview with me. I require students to bring a transcript of
courses and grades at SFU as well as two previously submitted history papers that come closest in
theme and time period to the European Reformation. An interview will not necessarily result in permission
to register in the course. Students who have taken no or few courses in European history at SFU most likely
will not be able to register in Hist. 403.
