A broad survey of human events prior to 1648, History 100 stresses the diversity and interaction of peoples and cultures in the making of Western Civilization. Our story begins in the east and gradually migrates west: from the lands of Mesopotamia (todays Iraq) into the Greek and Roman civilizations of the Mediterranean world. Only towards the end of this story, in the final weeks of semester, do we see a recognizably European civilization begin to take shape a restless, dynamic ensemble of power, culture and interest that, over time, came to be identified as the West. In examining this story, we devote particular attention to the evolving relations between government and religion, and the conflicting claims of reason and faith, in shaping Western politics and culture. While class lectures and textbook provide overall storyline and context, the heart of this course lies in our critical engagement with the documentary record left by the historical actors themselves.

History 101 focuses on developments, events and personalities in European history over a substantial period of time. The course will concentrate on major socio-cultural, political, economic, technical and military changes between the 1640s and 1945, in order to arrive at an understanding of the divergent historical paths of various European countries and peoples as well as the similarities of people's experiences in Europe. The course will explore these similarities through in-depth study of the barbarism of pan-European imperialism as well as via the work of two writers of European stature, the Frenchman Voltaire and the German Erich Maria Remarque. In a short paper on Remarques novel on World War I, you will be asked to investigate in greater depth European-wide concerns with internationalism, nationalism and peace.

This lecture course provides a broad overview of European history since 1648, with significant emphasis on Europes interactions with the wider world. The course examines key events and processes that shaped Western modernity, including the Enlightenment and French Revolution; the trans-Atlantic slave trade and history of European empire; the industrial revolution, nationalism, and nineteenth-century social change; the world wars of the twentieth century; the rebuilding of post-war Europe, the Cold War, and the European Union. Across these disparate events and moments in time, we will unearth foundational histories of state power, democracy, capitalism, and globalization. At the same time, we will also consider cultural histories of ideas, art, music, and memoryin connection with the many wars and upheavals that have marked the past three centuries. The course will be taught online in a synchronous/asynchronous manner. Students will have the option of either attending live lectures using Blackboard Collaborate or watching recorded versions of the same lectures at any time during the week. In addition, students will be expected to meet for Friday discussion sections. Past course, and World Cultures course.

This course trains students to think globally about change over time. It is concept driven as opposed to content driven - so it does not emphasize a specific narrative history. Instead it introduces students to ways of thinking about the histories of people, environments, cultures, economies, technologies, political systems, ideas, animals, foods, and diseases as always involving broad world circulations and intersections. Local histories have always involved global forces. And global processes have always been a combination of local histories. Through primary and secondary sources since 1300CE, students will examine world connections. This course is on-line with synchronous Friday zoom discussion sections and asynchronous weekly panopto video presentations.

This course examines critical issues in Asian American history from the nineteenth century to the present in larger national, cross-racial, and transnational contexts. Our topics include race relations, migration, war, colonialism, assimilation, gender ideology, social movement, multiracial identity, family and community life, and cultural representations in Asian American experiences across racial, ethnic, and national boundaries. Rather than focusing exclusively on historical narratives of selected Asian American ethnic groups, the course examines how race, gender, class, sexuality, and other historical issues have shaped the formation of complex and diverse identities and representations of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders in the United States and beyond.

This course focuses on the experiences of enslaved Africans in the Atlantic world slave economy. Through primary and secondary sources, we trace African experiences from enslavement and transportation inside Africa, to the middle passage, to enslaved labor in the Americas. We look at systems of control and enslaved peoples' resistance to those systems. In the Americas, less than 5% of enslaved people ended up in North America, so we spend more time in Brazil and the Caribbean where most enslaved people (over 80%) lived and died.

What was it like to live under communism in Eastern Europe? Was the party-state all powerful or did individuals and groups find places to assert autonomy and exercise agency? This course traces the history of state socialism in the former Eastern bloc and Yugoslavia from the establishment of communist regimes after World War II to their collapse in 1989 and the first years of transition. It explores the impact of World War II; the development of stalinism, which dominated the politics and society of the region from 1948 to 1956; the Soviet-Yugoslav split; the post-stalinist national roads to socialism; the reform movement, such as the Prague Spring of 1968; the role of consumption and popular culture; dissident movements, and Solidarity in Poland; the revolutions of 1989; the violent disintegration of the Yugoslav state in the 1990s; and the challenges of the transition to liberal democracy. In the process, we will explore diverse experiences of eastern Europeans with special attention paid to the relationship between everyday life and politics. Finally, the class will refer to the ways in which eastern European societies remember and make sense of the communist past.

This course surveys the history of the Russian Empire from the eighteenth century to the revolutions of 1917. But this is not a course about the Russian people and the Russian statewe will deal with the imperial state and a multiethnic, multilingual, multicultural imperial society. We will explore the contiguous space stretching from the Far East to todays Ukraine, and from contemporary Finland to the Caucasus and Central Asia. We will analyze how the empire integrated, alienated, controlled, and managed its diverse subjects (Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, Jewish, and Animist; settler and nomadic; urban and rural, and so on). Most importantly, we will ask how they experienced imperial rule. Learning facts about the Russian Empire is not the ultimate goal of the class. It is just a necessary prerequisite for the much more challenging task of imagining life in a very different society and understanding how this complex and unevenly organized imperial society functioned. How were empires perceived in the long nineteenth century? What mechanisms did they use to govern their diverse populations? How did empires create nations and at the same time nourish hybrid identities? And what were the unique features of the Russian Empire compared to other modern empires? Each class meeting integrates a discussion element. Your experience of living in diverse and complex societies will be highly welcome.

History 300 provides history majors an extended workshop in historical methods and writing, organized around particular themes. In this class we will study the evolving relationship between media, governments and warfare in the modern era. We pay particular attention to World Wars I and II, addressing issues such as censorship, propaganda and stage-managed journalism. We also consider how wars and battlefield deaths have been commemorated, examining the degree to which war experiences have been accurately reflected in public memory. And we will examine the ways in which media, so often serving as accomplices to war, have also worked to undermine the claims and aims of the war-makers. An assortment of books, articles and primary source materials will guide our exploration of these issues. The heart of this course however lies in ways in which students hone their interpretive and expository skills through an intensive schedule of assigned writings, discussion, revision, and class presentation.

3 hours Rome Has Fallen, Again: This seminar examines the period known as Late Antiquity and the historiography of its supposed end. Peter Brown, the most influential scholar in the field, has espoused a vision of this era as one of continuity with the classical past and transformation into the medieval. More recent scholarship, especially that produced by archaeologists, has pushed back against this optimistic picture and has revived a narrative of disruption and discontinuity. Furthermore, the latest scholarly work has turned to environmental considerations, exploring the impact of climate change, natural disasters, and pandemics on the decline and fall of the ancient Mediterranean world. We will investigate these historiographical turns and how each also functions as a proxy for contemporary global developments and their related concerns. Restricted to Undergrad - Chicago.

3 hours Few events have so shaken our world. From the convening of the Estates General in 1789, through the desperate improvisations of the Terror, up to Napoleons final defeat in 1815, the French Revolution widened horizons of political possibility everywhere, for its opponents and supporters alike. It is no accident that nearly all modern political traditions liberal, radical, conservative, socialist have largely defined themselves by reference to one or another of the Revolutions turning points and phases. This class examines the causes, course and consequences of the Revolution through a variety of secondary and primary source materials. We also address the interpretative controversies arising from Frances revolutionary decade: Is the Revolution best understood as epochal class conflict, tragic political accident, or transitory triumph of rhetorical intoxication? And what, when the dust finally cleared, were the Revolutions enduring legacies? While class lectures will provide storyline and contextualization, the heart of this class lies in students critical engagement with the assigned readings; in this process, your classroom participation, discussion and written assignments will be essential.

Topic: "Empires." This course is devoted to helping students develop skills in conceptualizing, researching, and writing an individual research project based on primary sources. With this in mind, the seminar will give students the opportunity to explore the theme of Empires from ancient to modern histories of imperial expansion. Students will learn about the similarities and differences between the Roman, Ottoman, Spanish, Russian and the British Empire. What kind of political and cultural projects did empires take up? What were their successes and their failures? While the class is focused on the theme of Empires, we will spend much of the time learning about the process of historical research, how to evaluate primary and secondary sources and how to formulate an argument from the evidence/sources gathered. The main goal of the class will be to produce a research paper (approximately 12-15 pages) at the end of term that will be closely evaluated in class workshops several times giving each student the opportunity to develop their writing and research skills.

3 hours This advanced seminar introduces students to current trends in the study of modernity and colonialism in the Muslim world. Turning our attention away from the heavily charged debates on the (in)compatibility of Islam and modernity, we will adopt a historical perspective on Muslim encounters with the modern (itself a contested term). Throughout, we will pay special attention to the role of colonial power in facilitating and structuring those encounters. To begin, we will orient ourselves by considering two accounts that compare the pre-modern past to the transformations brought about by modernity. After a methodological discussion on the theoretical issues raised by the critique of Orientalism, we will examine a number of case studies that attempt to uncover the modalities and mechanisms by which colonial modernity reshaped the institutions and sensibilities of the Muslim world. We will then move on to consider the related question of how Muslim social imaginaries and knowledge traditions have both demonstrated resilience and been subject to significant refashioning as a result of changed circumstances. Students will gain a familiarity with central themes that are driving the scholarly study of Muslim societies in the colonial and post-colonial periods. Restricted to Undergrad - Chicago.

Where is Europe? Where do its geographic boundaries lie? What does it mean to be modern? This colloquium introduces students to some of the most important issues and questions in European historiography, focusing especially on events and ideas of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries that have led historians to label the period uniquely modern. We will explore the rise of human rights as a discourse, the construction of national subjectivities, sexual identities, and patterns of European imperial domination. We will look at the eruption of modern mass violence and genocide, the impact of both World Wars on local populations, and the constant redefinition of political boundaries, including the Cold War and post-Cold War reshaping of the map of Europe. The course is designed to help students prepare for comprehensive exams in European history and to provide background for those who plan to teach history at the secondary and post-secondary levels. We will move forward on all of these fronts via a series of close readings of iconic texts that highlight particular aspects of historical moments or provide a unique prism through which to understand European developments. The goal here is to introduce a series of windows or access points to help students grapple with the large questions of the period. Recommended reading provided for each week can be used to develop reading lists for comprehensive exams and to flesh out students understanding of a particular subtopic.

This course provides an intellectual framework and organizational setting for graduate students to work on an original writing project, ideally relating to their dissertation project/interests. The result of the course should be a research article/chapter/essay that can be further developed into a publishable piece. In addition to producing outlines, drafts, and literature reviews, we will familiarize ourselves with practices of academic writing and publishing that include writing book reviews, peer reviews, and responses to reviewers. Most importantly, seminar members will find engaged and critical readers of their manuscripts, who in addition represent different fields of historical specialization. Learning how to communicate, through our projects, with the general historical community is our ultimate goal.
