Hist of European Civ 1 |
Albritton Jonsson, Fredrik |
"European Civilization" is a two-quarter sequence designed to introduce students to the nature and history of European civilization from the early middle ages to the twentieth century. It complements parallel sequences in ancient Mediterranean, Byzantine, Islamic, and American civilizations, and may be supplemented by a third quarter designed to expand a student's understanding of European civilization in a particular direction. Emphasis will be placed throughout on the recurring tension between universal aspirations and localizing boundaries, and on the fundamental rhythms of tradition and change. Method consists of close reading of primary sources intended to illuminate the formation and development of a characteristically European way of life in the high middle ages; the collapse of ecclesiastical universalism in the early modern period; and the development of modern politics, society, and culture in the centuries to follow. Individual instructors may choose different sources to illuminate those themes, but some of the most important readings will be the same in all sections. |

Colonizations 1 |
|
The course will approach the concept of "civilization" from an emphasis on cross-cultural and societal connections. We will explore the dynamics of conquest, slavery, and colonialism and their reciprocal relationships with concepts such as resistance, freedom, and independence with an eye toward understanding their interlocking role in the making of the modern world. The first quarter (Colonizations I) will take slavery, colonization, and the making of the Atlantic world as its central thematic. The second quarter (Colonizations II) will take colonization as its theme, with emphasis on Asia and the Pacific. It will start with a consideration of the pre-modern Arab and Chinese empires and then turn to European and Japanese colonialism (and decolonization) in Asia. The course will be taught as a two-quarter sequence. Students must take both quarters. |

Colonial Autobiography |
Austen, Ralph |
The focus of this course will be the reading of works which deal, in one way or another, with "coming of age under colonialism" in Africa, the Caribbean, South Asia, and Southeast Asia. Some are autobiographies in the normal sense, others are works of fiction, and many fall in between. Most are colonial but some are literally postcolonial. The focus will be upon themes of developing a personal identity in negotiation between a local culture and a dominant colonial one, with formal schooling as a major common site. There are obviously major issues of "postcoloniality" at stake here, in a mixture of political and cultural terms which we ourselves will need to negotiate. The two weekly session will normally (but not always) be divided between a lecture, which will introduce the historical context and author, and a discussion of the assigned text. Additional texts will be suggested both for background reading and potential paper topics. |

Ancient Sparta |
Hall, Jonathan |
From Herodotos to Hitler, ancient Sparta has continued to fascinate for its supposedly balanced constitution, its military superiority, its totalitarian ideology, and its brutality. Yet the image we possess of the most important state of the Peloponnese is largely the projection of outside observers for whom the objectification of Sparta could serve either as a model for emulation or as a paradigm of "otherness." This course will examine the extant evidence for Sparta from its origins through to its repackaging in Roman times and will serve as a case study in discussing the writing of history and in attempting to gauge the viability of a non-Athenocentric Greek history. |

We will consider trade, manufacture, and agriculture, and we will devote considerable attention to issues of methodology: what questions should we ask about ancient economic life, and with what evidence can we answer them? |

Colloq: The Russo-German War, 1941-1945 |

This course explores the Russian and Eastern European theater of war between 1939 and 1945. This will be a story both of soldiers and entire nations at war, but also of excruciating battles. It will be an exploration of the degeneration of war into massacre, rape, pillage, and genocide and of ethnic conflict mixed into the Great War. Last but not least, we will try to determine how this war fits into what one historian called the age of extremes. There will be plenty of reading from week to week, because we will cover both sides as carefully as ever possible. We also screen (British, German, and Russian) films, television documentaries, and docudramas. Both in terms of subject and in terms of work-load this course is not for the faint-hearted. |

Darwin's "Origin of Species" and "Decent of Man" |
Richards, Robert |
This lecture-discussion class will focus on a close reading of Darwin's two classic texts. An initial class or two will explore the state of biology prior to Darwin's Beagle Voyage, and then consider the development of his theories before 1859. Then we will turn to his two books. Among the topics of central concern will be: the logical, epistemological, and rhetorical status of Darwin's several theories, especially his evolutionary ethics; the religious foundations of his ideas and the religious reaction to them; and the social-political consequences of his accomplishment. 2009 is the 200th anniversary of Darwin's birth and the 150th of the publication of the "Origin."

Econ/ Soc Hist of Euro, 1700-1880 |
Craig, John |
This course examines the causes, characteristics, and effects -- economic, social, and otherwise -- of the "industrious" and industrial revolutions. The course reviews an array of unresolved debates, among them the so-called Brenner debate and the debates over proto-industrialization, the enclosure movements, the sources of technological innovation, path dependence and diffusion patterns within and across economies, the family economy, the standard of living, the formation of the middle and working classes, the consequences of literacy, and the voluntary iniatives and public policies addressing such social problems as poverty, disease, illegitimacy, and crime. The course is the first in a two-course sequence covering the economic and social history of Europe from 1700 to the present, but each course is free-standing -- students enrolled in this course are not required to take its sequel.

Introduction to Black Chicago, 1895-2005 |
Green, Adam |
This course surveys the history of African Americans in Chicago, from before the 20th century to the present. Referencing episodes from that history, we will treat a variety of themes, including: migration and its impact, origins and effects of class stratification; relation of culture and cultural endeavor to collective consciousness, rise of the institutionalized religions, facts and fictions of political empowerment, and the correspondence of Black lives and living to indices of city wellness (services, schools, safety, general civic feeling, etc). Of necessity, this will be a history class that acknowledges its place within a robust interdisciplinary conversation. Students can expect to read works of autobiography and poetry, sociology, documentary photography, political science, and criminology, as well as more straightforward historical analysis. By the end of the class, students should have grounding in the history of Black Chicago, as well as an appreciation of how this history outlines and anticipates a broader account of Black life and racial politics in the modern United States.

This course explores the place of the United States in the construction of international political, economic and cultural order since World War II. While particular attention is devoted to examining the origins, shifting character and end of the Cold War in an international perspective, the course also aims to broaden the lines of inquiry that have traditionally informed the study of American foreign relations. It will do so by considering the nature of transnational linkages between peoples, economies and ideas; the perspectives of state and non-state actors; and the ways in which culture and ideology at home and abroad shaped American perceptions and policies in the world. Weekly readings and discussions will introduce critical primary source materials as well as important interpretative approaches to key issues in post-1945 American international history. |
