This course will explore the overlapping histories, religions and cultures that connect the region of South Asia: broadly inclusive of modern-day Afghanistan, Pakistan, India, Bangladesh, Nepal, and Sri Lanka. In order to understand the political and cultural histories of the region, it is important to trace the regions thrust into the global order in the last 150 years starting with British conquest in the 18th century to the dynamic nationalist movement that arose in the late 19th century demanding freedom from British colonial rule. This course will begin with the 1857 revolt against British imperial power on the Indian subcontinent and end with reflections on the politics and culture in the South Asian region, with a primary focus on the contemporary states of India and Pakistan. Past course, and World Cultures course.
