Winter	13001	14	Hist of European Civ 1	Wilder, Colin	"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.

Winter	14000	00	Intro to Russian Civilization 2	Hellie, Richard	This two-quarter, interdisciplinary course studies geography, history, literature, economics, law, fine arts, religion, sociology, and agriculture, among other fields, to see how the civilization of Russia has developed and functioned since the ninth century. The first quarter covers the period up to 1801; the second, since 1801. The course has a common lecture by a specialist in the field, usually on a topic about which little is written in English. Two weekly seminar meetings are devoted to discussion of the readings, which integrate the materials from a variety of interdisciplinary perspectives. The course attempts to inculcate an understanding of the separate elements of Russian civilization. Emphasis is placed on discovering indigenous elements of Russian civilization and how they have reacted to the pressures and impact of other civilizations, particularly Byzantine, Mongol-Tataric, and Western. The course also considers problems of the social sciences, such as the way in which the state has dominated society, stratification, patterns of legitimization of the social order, symbols of collective social and cultural identity, the degrees of pluralism in society, and the autonomy an individual has vis-à-vis the social order. Also examined are such problems as the role of the center in directing the periphery and its cultural, political, and economic order; the mechanisms of control over the flow of resources and the social surplus; and processes of innovation and modernization.

The power and wealth of early modern empires rested on the massive reordering of the natural world. We will track this process in multiple and interconnected dimensions: ecological, social, scientific, and political. In terms of geographic scope, we will look at a series of concrete case studies in colonization, from medieval Iceland to seventeenth-century Barbados and eighteenth-century Lapland, Mauritius, and New South Wales. Readings will include a variety of primary sources as well as scholarly classics of the field such as Alfred Crosby s Ecological Imperialism and Richard Grove s Green Imperialism.

Students will develop a particular area of expertise that will serve as a test for broader models of early modern state-building.
Winter	23002	01	Protestant Reformation in Germany	Fasolt, Constantin	This course is designed to clarify and test the assumptions underlying the present state of knowledge about the Protestant Reformation. Its method consists of reading extensively in the historiography and reflecting intensively on the issues raised by that reading. So as to maintain a well-defined focus the course is largely limited to the Reformation in Germany. So as to develop a broad perspective the course is not limited to the most recent literature. We will begin with some of the most famous older interpretations (Hegel, Ranke, Engels, Troeltsch, Weber, Febvre). We will then go on to consider the redefinition of the historical agenda since the 1960's and the current state of our knowledge by reading the work of leading contemporary historians of the Reformation (e.g., Bernd Moeller, Thomas Brady, Heiko Oberman, Jean Delumeau, Peter Blickle, Heinz Schilling). The course will consist of a mixture of discussion and professorial commentary.
Winter	23205	01	The European State 1866-1914	Deak, John	Full title: "States, Nations, and the Problem of Sovereignty in Continental Europe, 1866-1914."

Between 1860 and 1871 Germany and Italy unified, Austria-Hungary was reformed under a new representative constitutions, and France threw off Napoleon III s Second Empire to establish the Third Republic. In this course we will examine these new constitutions and delve into how the internal process of state-making continued after these new polities were formed. This course will combine a lecture and discussion format. Readings for discussion will include primary material but also classic and recent scholarship on Italy, France, Austria-Hungary, and Germany. Students will continue to further their skills in reading and evaluating primary documents but they will also begin the process of reading, analyzing and even critiquing recent scholarship.
Winter	23309	01	The Holocaust: Origins, Implementation, and Historical Interpretations	Joskowicz, Alexander	This course surveys the most important literature on the origins and implementation of the murder of Europe's Jewry and relates it to interpretations of the ethical, theological, aesthetic, and political implications of the Holocaust. In the first part of the course we will discuss some of the most important historical explanations of the events. What was the role of individuals and bureaucratic institutions in the exclusion, persecution, and murder of the Jews? How did Jews react to the measures? What was the role of "ordinary" German civilians and soldiers? In the second part of the course we will explore some of the broader interpretations of the Holocaust and ask questions such as: What is the relationship of modernity to the Holocaust? Is this a European, a German, or a Christian phenomenon? How can the Holocaust be compared with other genocides?
Winter	23405	01	New Approaches to L'Encyclopédie	Morrissey, Robert	No author better represents the Age of Enlightenment in all of its complexity than Denis Diderot; no work did more to spread the ideology of the Enlightenment than the Encyclopédie. Mobilizing many of the great -- and the not-so-great -- philosophes of the eighteenth-century, this monumental work that undertook to organize and transmit the totality of human knowledge is also a very subversive work. We will look at the Encyclypédie in its context and explore such issues as the techniques of reading it implies, its notions of what constitutes truth, and some of the implications of the collective, dialogical nature of the enterprise. Readings will include miscellaneous works by Diderot, a selection of texts by him and others drawn from the Encyclopédie texts of other philosophes. There will be an oral presentation and a research paper.  All work is done in French but exceptions will be made for students from other departments.
Winter	24300	01	Hist of Mod China 1	Alitto, Guy	This lecture course presents the main intellectual, political, economic, and social trends in modern China. The course covers the ideological and organization structures, and the social movements that define a process variously described in Western literature as modernization, reform, and revolution, or as political development. Emphasis is on institutional and intellectual developments during this period, especially in the twentieth century. Some attention is paid to historiographic analysis and criticism. Readings are in the English language secondary literature.
Winter	24500	01	Reading Qing Documents	Alitto, Guy	Reading and discussion of nineteenth- and early twentieth-century historical political documents, including such forms as memorials, decrees, local gazetteers, diplomatic communications, essays, and the like.
Winter	25004	01	Evolutionary Theory and Its Role in Human Sciences	Richards, R. & Beck, N.	In the first part of the course we will read selections from Darwin's Origin and Descent, one or two pieces by Wallace, and some essays on the "modern synthesis." We will be interested, along the way, in contrasting Darwin s theory with various religiously grounded views (e.g., creationism and intelligent design). In the second half of the course, we will consider more closely the reasons for this heated 150 year-old debate by examining what is at stake in Darwin's revolutionary theory. We will investigate a wide spectrum of the human sciences in which various versions of evolutionary theory have been advanced or opposed e.g., selections from the works of Herbert Spencer, E.B. Tylor, Walter Bagehot, the Huxleys (T.H. and grandson), Henry George, Ernst Haeckel, the later Wallace, Friedrich Hayek, Milton Friedman, E. O. Wilson, and Steven Pinker.  Our objective in this second half of the course would be to analyze the apparent malleability of "applied evolutionism" and study some of the salient aspects of this enterprise, which although highly problematic, seems almost unavoidable given the nature of the theory itself.
Winter	25005	01	Ideas of Nature 1400-1900 Cancelled	Gugliotta, Angela	Nature is, and has been, a fundamental category in human thought. Yet Arthur Lovejoy (1935) enumerated 66 senses in which the word had been used in European literature and philosophy. What roles did the (nominally continuous) category of nature play in Medicean Florence, Enlightenment France or ante-Darwinian England? How were ideas of nature contested and reconstituted in such contexts? We will critically and historically examine changes in conceptions of nature from the Renaissance through the nineteenth century. This course is chronologically second in a two-course survey but can also be taken independently. Those planning to take both halves of the survey may take them in either order.
Winter	25204	01	Econ/ Soc Hist of Euro, 1880-Pres	Craig, John	This course is a sequel to History 25203/35203, but the latter is not a prerequisite. It focuses on economic and social problems and debates identified with mature industrialization and the transition to a postindustrial and increasingly integrated Europe. Themes receiving particular attention include the crisis of the old rural order, international factor mobility (including migration), urbanization and "municipal socialism", the rise of the professions and the new middle class, the demographic and schooling transitions, the economic and social impact of business cycles, the world wars, and mass movements, the evolution and so-called crisis of the welfare state, and the social policies of the European Union.
Winter	25600	01	Contemporary Central Asia	Arik, Kagan	This course follows Turkish 243/343 "Introduction to the Turkic Peoples of Central Asia," with an emphasis on the current affairs of the modern nation-states of Central Asia.
Winter	25606	01	History of the Ottoman Empire, 1300-1923: Regional Specifics and Interregional Dynamics	Antov, Nikolay	The Ottoman Empire was one of the longest-lasting empires in world history (ca. 1300-1923). The first part of the course traces the history of the empire from its obscure origins as a tiny principality in western Anatolia in the fourteenth, to its growth into an imperial power in the eastern Mediterranean, controlling Anatolia, the Balkans, and the Middle East in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Due attention will be paid to the formation of a distinct Ottoman imperial tradition and its constituents, by reviewing the developments in areas of law, practices of government, ideology, and arts and sciences. The second part of the course will deal with the Empireâ s gradual transformation in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries in its quest to catch up with the institutional, economic, technological, and cultural advancement of Western powers, as well as with its subsequent disintegration under the twin pressures of war and nationalism in the early twentieth century. Throughout the course an emphasis will be placed on the role that the three large and distinctive regions of the Empire (Anatolia, the Balkans, and the Arab Middle East) and the interrelationship between them played in its historical development as a culturally, religiously, ethnically diverse and famously long-lived imperial polity. The broader objective of the course is to explain the importance of the Ottoman imperial past to understand the present-day Middle East and beyond.
Winter	25804	01	Islamic History and Society 2	Woods, John	This course is the continuation of Islamic History and Society 1 and presumes a familiarity of early Islamic history, 600-1100. This course covers the period from roughly 1050 to 1750 and deals with, among other topics, the coming of the steppe people (Turks and Mongols), the Mongol successor states, and the rise of the great early modern Islamic states (Ottomans, Safavids, and Mughals).
Winter	26106	01	Tropical Commodities in Latin America	Kourí, Emilio	This colloquium explores selected aspects of the social, economic, and cultural history of tropical export commodities from Latin America-- e.g., coffee, bananas, sugar, tobacco, henequen, rubber, vanilla, and cocaine. Topics include land, labor, capital, markets, transport, geopolitics, power, taste, and consumption.
Winter	26403	01	Women and Revolution in 20th Century Latin America	Osten, Sarah	While images and stories of Emiliano Zapata, Che Guevara and Fidel Castro, and Daniel Ortega commonly dominate popular conceptions of the Mexican Revolution, the Cuban Revolution, and the Sandinista Revolution in Nicaragua, this course focuses not on these male revolutionary leaders, but rather, on the participation and experiences of women who joined the same revolutions. The purpose of the course is to familiarize students with the histories of each of these modern Latin American revolutionary movements, and to examine the roles of women within each: as supporters, as opponents, as leaders, and as soldiers. For each case study, we will consider the economic, social, political, and personal factors that led women to join revolutionary movements, as well as the political impacts their participation had in their respective nations. We will also consider the various similarities, differences, and commonalities that existed between these three case studies, as well as the larger themes, questions, and debates which they collectively raise.
Winter	26504	01	Construction of Latin America	Myers, Jorge	Full Title: The Construction of Latin America: Cultural History and the Definitions of Latin America's Continental Identity. A survey of a series of classic texts in the "cultural history" of Latin America, as this was defined during the middle decades of the twentieth century, with the purpose of examining the manner in which this corpus contributed to an affirmation and definition of "Latin Americanness" in terms that were neither biological and racial -- as in the Positivist era-- nor militant and politicized -- as in the period following the Cuban Revolution.
Winter	26603	01	Liberalism and Feminist in Inda: A Historical Survey	Majumdar, Rochona	This course will map the main currents that have shaped and divided the field of gender/ feminist/ sexuality studies in India by focusing on the Indian feminist movement relationship to the liberal legacy its purported relationship to the state and to legal reform. Our analysis will be both historical and theoretical. For instance, we will explore historical writings pertaining to the so-called women question in India beginning with the banning of widow immolation in 1826, the legal restraint imposed on the consummation of marriages with child brides below the age of 12, questions around women right to property, to more contemporary issues such as the debates around a uniform civil code (laws governing marriage, divorce, property settlement etc) for all Indian communities, or gay rights. These readings will be offset by critical readings of key feminist texts that argue about the efficacy of law in the Indian context, many of them proposing more direct political action by citizens. In sum, the course is intent on asking whether or not the historical phase of liberal faith in the Indian state promises to women and minorities is now past. Underlying these debates are deeper questions of how scholars understand the feminist project, both in its global and specifically Indian instantiations.
Winter	27102	01	Lincoln: Slavery, War, and the Constitution	Hutchinson, Dennis	This course is a study of Abraham Lincoln's view of the Constitution, based on close readings of his writings, plus comparisons to judicial responses to Lincoln's policies.
Winter	27300	01	Af-Am Hist since 1877	Holt, Thomas	This course explores in a comparative framework the historical forces that shaped the work, culture, and political struggles of African-American people in the United States from the end of American Reconstruction to the present.
Winter	27505	01	Medieval Pilgrimage	Pick, Lucy	This course seeks to investigate the nature, meaning, and significance of the phenomenon of pilgrimage in the Middle Ages. We will consider the origin and development of pilgrimage and its relationship to the medieval cult of saints. We will use narrative accounts as well as art and architecture, and although our focus will primarily be on Christian pilgrimage, we will also investigate parallels in the Jewish and Muslim traditions.
Winter	27604	01	Asian Americans and the Legacies of War	Mah, Theresa	This is a course that explores the ways in which U.S. wars in Asia have transformed Asian American social, economic, political and cultural life in the United States. Focusing on political conflicts and their aftermath rather than on the diplomatic or political relations between nations, the course will open up discussions of migration, citizenship, U.S. imperialism, nationalism, neo- and post-colonialism, and the production and use of racial representations in political conflict. We will pay particular attention to the ways in which these conflicts affect social relations and the production of knowledge. During the quarter, we will trace Asian American histories and experiences through the Philippine-American War, World War II, the Korean War and conflict in Southeast Asia. The broad scope of this course will also allow us to examine such topics as race, gender, national identity, power, violence and cultural production within specific historical contexts.
Winter	27702	01	The Politics of Sexuality in US History	Lefkovitz, Alison	This course will examine the problem of "sexual deviancy" in the United States from the colonial period until the late twentieth century. We will question what s at stake when certain sexual practices are identified as not merely abnormal, but rather dangerous or threatening to society. We will do so by identifying the different sexual practices that most concerned society over time for example, adultery in the colonial period and homosexual behavior in the twentieth and also the changing meaning of similar practices such as interracial sex before and after emancipation. This course will ultimately interrogate how sexuality was used to organize, justify, and counter other social categories, including race, class, and gender.
Winter	28102	01	Business Hist of the late 20th Century	Levin, Matthew	Full Title: Business History of the Late 20th Century: From the Decade of Decadence to the New Gilded Age. This seminar will explore the history of American business during the final two decades of the 20th century. Throughout this period, American business saw a transformation in the way risk was evaluated, capital was raised, and organizations were led. Above all, the rules of the game during this era were altered regarding corporate control, business management and wealth creation. We will explore the transformations in business culture during the 1980s and 1990s that have led to current trends and problems. Students interested in the recent history of Wall Street, financial markets, and business culture will enjoy this seminar. This class will also appeal to people intrigued by late 20th century American society - specifically how business and American industry have influenced America s identity. Those who may want to explore a career involving business should find the seminar helpful in preparing for many types of professions across disciplines.
Winter	28300	01	Early Amer Legal Hist	Novak, William	This course explores the role of law in history and of history in law through a survey of American legal developments from the colonial era to the Civil War. It treats the law not as an autonomous process or science, but as a social phenomenon inextricably intertwined with other historical forces. This quarter, we will examine the life of the law in antebellum America by exploring the interrelationships between changes in legal institutions and doctrines and larger social processes like migration, revolution, constitution-making, economic transformation, social regulation, and civil war.
Winter	29302	01	Human Rgts 2: Hist & Theory	Novak, William	This course is concerned with the theory and the historical evolution of the modern human rights regime. It discusses the emergence of a modern "human rights" culture as a product of the formation and expansion of the system of nation-states and the concurrent rise of value-driven social mobilizations. It juxtaposes these Western origins with competing non-Western systems of thought and practices on rights. The course proceeds to discuss human rights in two prevailing modalities. First, it explores rights as protection of the body and personhood and the modern, Western notion of individualism entailed therein. Second, it inquires into rights as they affect groups (such as ethnicities, and potentially, transnational corporations) or states.
Winter	29408	01	Human Rights in Mexico	Gzesh, Susan	This course will examine human rights in Mexico from the early 20th century to the present. It begins with the notion of rights created in the post-revolutionary Constitution of 1917, through the consolidation of the relationship between the individual, sectors of society, and the state in the Cardenas period. The course will examine the role of Mexico in the formation of international and regional human rights agreements as well as Mexico s role as a country of refuge for political exiles. The second half of the course will focus on two contemporary case studies. In the area of civil and political rights, it will examine the 1968 massacre of students in Mexico City. In the area of economic, social, and cultural rights, it will examine either agrarian reform and right to land in west-central Mexico or the situation of indigenous peoples in southern Mexico.  A reading knowledge of Spanish and good oral comprehension, and at least one course on Latin American history or culture are required.
Winter	29617	01	Hist Coll: Themes in Australian & New Zealand History	Fitzpatrick, S. & Chakrabarty, D.	This course will address the following themes: Australia and New Zealand as parts of the British Empire; settlers (inc. immigration) in these countries; their indigenous peoples and their histories; radical tradition and politics.

Winter	29903	01	Ancients & Moderns	Griggs, Tamara	What does it mean to be "modern"? How much authority and power does the past have over us? Is there such a thing as progress? Do we live in an age of decline? These were some of the questions posed by scholars, writers, and artists in the final decades of the seventeenth century in a battle that erupted almost simultaneously in England and France. Looking back at the Renaissance and the new natural philosophy of their own time, Europeans began to question the authority of the ancient past. Yet the seventeenth-century "quarrel" was not the first time that Europeans confronted the cultural and intellectual legacy of Greco-Roman antiquity. In this course, we will examine the relationship between ancients and moderns in European history, from the myths of origins in archaic Greece to the full-blown classicism and anthropology of the nineteenth century.
Winter	29904	01	European Enlightenment	Griggs, Tamara	The Enlightenment was one of the most important cultural and intellectual movements in European history. The secularization of intellectual life that took place between 1685 and 1789 had tenacious roots and enormous consequences. The Enlightenment was also a cosmopolitan movement that stretched from Scotland all the way to Poland and Russian. In this course we will focus on the major problems that preoccupied contemporaries, including science & nature, society, history, the state, crime & punishment, and religion. For each of these themes, we will examine a range of primary sources. Readings include Voltaire, Spinoza, Diderot, Hume, Beccaria, Rousseau, Frederick II of Prussia, Marquis de Sade, and Casanova.
