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. Past course, and World Cultures course.

History of Science in a Global Context: What have people come to know about the world and how have they come to know it? This course surveys the history of science from the sixteenth century to the present, paying attention to how science has been related to other enterprises such art, religion, literature, commerce, and politics. By addressing science not just as a body of knowledge and methods but as an activity that has shaped and been shaped by global history, this course has two aims. The first is to develop a historical sensibility about scientific knowledge, which entails not only thinking about the scientific past as something other than a foreshadowing of what scientists now know, but also engaging and critiquing the historical narrative that identifies science exclusively with European and American actors. The second aim is to explore the resonances between the past and our present. To these ends, we will read a range of primary and secondary sources that emphasize the parallels, differences, and interconnections of knowing the world. From astronomical and botanical lore to atomic diplomacy and entrepreneurial science, we will learn to place contemporary issues and debates about science in historical context, as well as how and why certain kinds of questions, spaces, practices, and peoplebut not otherscame to be called scientific. Same as INST 114.

This course surveys the history of the Middle East from the pre-Islamic era to recent events and debates. You will study the culture and milieu in which Islam emerged, its remarkably quick expansion, the new cultural syntheses these early conquests produced, and the political and religious forms they engendered. As we move into the more stable middle period, you will learn about the similarities and differences between the various empires that ruled the areas now known as the Middle East, and how they produced distinctive identities while drawing on a common religious heritage. Towards the end of the semester, we will examine the impact of European colonialism, attempts at modernization in the turbulent nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and the particular challenges that face the Middle East today. Throughout, we pay attention to the various political, religious, economic and social components of the historical moments we study, as well as the various sectors of Middle Eastern society.

Did you know that the Roman Empire lasted for a thousand years longer than is often assumed? After the establishment of New RomeConstantinoplein the fourth century CE, Roman identity, culture, and politics began a long, steady transition and transformation into what scholars call the Byzantine Empire. Of course, Christianity was a central feature of these developments, but equally important were interactions and conflicts with the peoples of Near and Middle East, north Africa, western Asia, medieval Europe, the Balkans, and the Islamic Caliphates. This course will explore these complex and fascinating processes, with a focus on how the developing institutions of the Byzantines exhibited both continuity with and change from the ancient Mediterranean world.

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.

It would be hard to identify another national history so explosive, creative and world-shaking as that of France between 1715 and 1848. Over these years the French blazed new trails in intellectual life, military affairs, culture and the arts. Lurching from revolution to reaction, from restoration to reform, France provided the testing grounds for much of our modern repertoire of politics, statecraft and sensibility. In this course, we will examine these movements, conflicts and trends mainly through primary source materials philosophical tracts, memoirs, contemporary novels and period documents. While class lectures will provide the overall storyline and necessary context, the heart of this class lies in a critical engagement with the assigned readings, in which student participation and discussion will be crucial.

This course, the first in a two-semester sequence on American intellectual history, explores a series of major themes in the history of American social thought from the beginning of English colonization of North America in the early seventeenth century to the end of the Civil War. One primary goal of the course is to develop students skill at intensive rather than extensive reading of complex literary sources such as sermons, speeches, polemics, and essays. Whereas students are often accustomed to reading horizontally across multiple sources, this class focuses on single-tasking in order to draw out the internal tensions, unstated assumptions, conceptual conventions, and rhetorical strategies beneath what can be simply stated or summarized in individual authors and texts. At the same time, the course examines the history of shared social questionsthe fundamental political and economic problems that make up the shifting stakes of social struggle in early America. Well consider how and why far-reaching questions became open, urgent, and fiercely debated in particular periodssuch as the relationship between Christianity and commonwealth in the seventeenth century, the bases of popular sovereignty and self-rule in the eighteenth century, and the meanings of free and unfree labor in the nineteenth century. Such searching questions are generally more profound and enduring than the answers on offer at any given historical moment, and they form the main subjects of intellectual history as well approach it in this class.

Childhood and Race in U.S. History: Examines the experiences of children in the United States from the colonial period to the present, as well as how the notion of childhood evolved over time. While the course focuses mainly on how race shaped the lived experience of childhood and its conception, it also examines how other markers of difference, such as ethnicity, class, gender, nationality, and (dis)ability, impacted childhood and access to its associated rights. Major themes of the course include enslavement, migration, family life, child labor, education, incarceration, advocacy, civil rights, and citizenship. The course is ultimately aimed at providing historical context and analytical tools with which to better understand and engage contemporary dilemmas related to racialized children and youth.

Spanish-speaking people have traveled throughout what is the modern continental United States since the early 1500s, accompanied at times by Africans, Arabs, and Chinese as well. The indigenous peoples they encountered trace their presence here even further back thousands of years. Yet the people produced these encounters--who today we call "Latinos"--are continually cast as recent immigrants, newcomers, or worse yet, invaders. This course explores the long history of Latinos/Latinx people in the United States beginning with the Spanish conquest of the Americas, to northward migration and settlement during the colonial period, and the journeys of various Latin Americans throughout the twentieth century. We will consider themes such as colonialism, labor, race, gender, class, sexuality, popular culture, and others.

Introduction to Multiethnic Digital Humanities: The digital humanities (DH) gives scholars and students a set of tools to perform research and to present information to diverse audiences in various forms, such as digital maps, exhibitions, multimedia chapter books, archives, games, and more. In this course, we will focus on multiethnic digital humanities projects: projects that promote the intersection of digital tools and diverse languages, identities, cultures, and communities. This course is designed to introduce students to the vast potential and current debates in the digital humanities and to prepare students for future research, internships, and employment in a variety of fields. The first part of this course will introduce students to several DH tools and platforms through in-class experimentation, so those new to and experienced in the digital humanities are very welcome. Students will explore digitization, archiving, social networking, mapping, text mining and analysis, image analysis, data visualization, and more. Throughout the course, students will also build or begin a multiethnic digital humanities project (group or individual). Students can also produce a written exploration of digital humanities methods for a new or existing research project or analyze the opportunities and limitations of the digital humanities. We will discuss progress on projects often and consult with each other and with experts around UIC. Same as ENGL 430. Restricted to Undergrad - Chicago.

The aim of History 501 is to introduce graduate students to the breadth and scope of current historical approaches to research and writing. During the course of the semester, we will collectively explore questions of method (or practices of history) concerning how to formulate historical questions, the collection of archival material and strategies of historical interpretation. In order to get a sense of the ways in which historians collect archival material and organize source material to produce specific narratives, we will spend most of the semester reading significant and representative historical scholarship. Required for graduate students in the M.A. and Ph.D. in History programs. Course Information: Prerequisite(s): Graduate standing in history.

This course, part of a two-semester sequence intended for first-year graduate students, offers an introduction to the major issues, methods, theoretical approaches, primary sources, and topics of scholarship in early American history. It covers the period from the beginnings of European colonization in the sixteenth century through the Civil War and Reconstruction era in the nineteenth century. While we focus primarily on British America and the United States, we also consider other contemporary empires and colonies in North America, including New Spain and New France. Together with History 551B, which covers the period from the late nineteenth century to the present, the course forms the basis of the comprehensive examinations required for the M.A. (stand-alone) and M.A.T. in American history as well as a foundation for the preliminary examination required for the Ph.D.
