The three-volume series emerged from 1996-2002 annual meetings of the Center for Millennial Studies at Boston University, where an international array of scholars discussed the texts and traditions of religious revelation or apocalypses concerning the end of the world as they knew it, and searched for a more nuanced understandings of perhaps the most ancient ideas of social change. The 15 studies look at core ideas of millennial theory, approaches to millennial history, and millennial hopes and apocalyptic disappointments. Distributed in the US by the David Brown Book Company.
