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 before gradually migrating west: from the lands of Mesopotamia (todays Iraq) into the Greek and Roman civilizations of the Mediterranean world. Only towards the end of our story, in the final weeks of semester, does a recognizably European civilization begin to take shape a matrix of culture, institutions and ideas that became, over time, identifiable as the West, that restless, dynamic ensemble of power and interest that, for better and for worse, has played so outsized a role in making todays world. As we examine this story, we will 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. Class Schedule Information: To be properly registered, students must enroll in one Discussion/Recitation and one Lecture. 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.

3 hours History 214 tracks European developments from the First World War through the conclusion of World War II, and considers the worlds undone and remade by these epochal conflicts. Historians sometimes refer to the traumatic years from 1914-45 as Europes Second Thirty Years War, a phrase that underscores the continuities between the two world wars, as well as the tumultuous times between. Yet alongside their awful catastrophes, these years also saw remarkable innovation and departure in European culture, politics and social relations, and our approach emphasizes this bracing modernity alongside the eras iconic disasters and atrocities. At semesters end, we will briefly survey European developments after 1945 the remaking and resettling of postwar Europe, the dynamics of conflict between East and West, and the forging of new European relations in the shadows of Cold War.

Hardly a day goes by without news of the many ways in which climate change is reshaping societies around the world, and the influence of environmental transformation on human society now seems obvious. But until recently, historians tended to narrate the histories of global societies and cultures as the outcomes of human action alone. Strongly influenced by new environmentalist movements, environmental history emerged several decades ago as an effort to write the non-human world back into the making of human pasts. Environmental history encompasses a wide array of subjects relating to the effects of human societies on the environment, the role of non-human nature in the making of human history, and the history of ideas about humans and the environment. We will begin by reading some classic texts that showcase the diversity of approaches to writing environmental history. The remainder of the course will cover major themes in the environmental history of global capitalist modernity. Topics will include the many natures of pre-capitalist empire states, colonial capitalism and agrarian development, imperialism and the production of environmental knowledge, the making of global commodity frontiers, disease and the environment, energy regimes and the rise of petro-politics, the city as environment, global food production, and the politics of climate change. Environmental history is an inherently interdisciplinary field, and students from all majors and departments are welcome.

3 hours Athenian democracy, especially in its most radical form, was a grand experiment in shared governance, and some might say, ultimately a spectacular failure. Aristophanes is our most direct witness to its practice, but because he was a comedic playwright, we are left with the difficult task of discerning fact from fantasy, reality from satire. We are fortunate to have other testimoniesfrom historians, philosophers, inscriptions, and (cranky) participantswhich, together with the comedies of Aristophanes, will serve as our guides into the world of the fifth-century BCE Athenians and the development of their political practices. We will also explore the paradoxes between their democratic ideals and their imperialism and martial aggression. Finally, we will think critically about how the voices of the ancient past echo in our present. Restricted to Undergrad - Chicago.

We will also explore the paradoxes between their democratic ideals and their imperialism and martial aggression. Finally, we will think critically about how the voices of the ancient past echo in our present.

3 hours This class zooms in on the dramatic transition from the Russian to the Soviet imperial formations. Building on new historiography, we will reconsider major themes that typically inform historical accounts of the first three decades of the Russian/Eurasian twentieth century. These themes include the Russian fin de sicle, the Russian Revolution, the Civil War, Bolshevik utopias, Soviet state building, and so on. We will try to approach them through the lens of human diversity, cultural hybridity, social fluidity, and the variability of postimperial imageries. The old empire was a very diverse and complex polity and society; the new Soviet polity was no less diverse and complex but dealt with this diversity very differently. The continuum of crisis that included World War I, the Revolutions of 1917, and the Civil War shook the society in a most dramatic way yet did not eradicate its imperial nature and internal complexity. While familiarizing ourselves with these experiences and new studies in political, social, and cultural history, we will ask questions about the meaning of subjecthood and citizenship; about Russian revolution as imperial revolution and its colonial and anticolonial aspects; about the correlation between national and universal in the Soviet project; and about imperial complexity as a context for arts and sciences. This class will emphasize interdisciplinarity in topics, approaches, and interpretations. It will provide an opportunity to think about generally familiar textbook events from rather unfamiliar perspectives, defined by geographical, gender, or ethnic otherness. The class is reading-heavy, but the reading load and assignments are different for undergraduate and graduate students. The class will be held face-to-face. Restricted to Undergrad - Chicago.

History 440 offers history majors a structured setting in which to write their senior papers; in our case, those papers will address the theme life during wartime. This theme provides a shared denominator to our labors while presenting students a wide range of perspectives and research agendas, including battlefield versus homefront experience, relations between occupiers and occupied, behaviors of collaboration and resistance, policies of ethnic cleansing and forced resettlement, and the role of atrocity and sexual violence in war. Students have wide latitude in their choice of world regions and historical eras in determining their specific research topics (every continent outside Antarctica is fair game). Final papers should reflect a solid grasp of the secondary literature and, most importantly, research in primary source materials. This emphasis upon research and writing means that the greater part of coursework will take place outside the classroom. Yet weekly class sessions are no less critical, as we devote reading and discussion to a) the diverse historical approaches to our life-during-wartime theme; b) research strategies; c) interpreting evidence; and d) craft and responsibility in the writing of history.

Beginning with the rise of slave patrols in the U.S. South and the settler colonial campaigns of Native elimination in the West, the course considers how multiple forms of policing and surveillance since the nineteenth century worked to reinforce the nations structural inequalities and its racial and gendered hierarchies. While we will trace the history of conventional forms of policing and carceral institutions like police, prisons, jails, juvenile detention facilities, and sites of immigrant incarceration, the course will also consider how non-traditional sites of imprisonment like schools and workplaces practiced carceral logics and served as arms of the carceral state.

The graduate colloquium on the Global Sixties examines cultural, intellectual, social, and political transformations of the long Sixties (ca. mid-1950s to mid-1970s) from a global perspective. Particular attention will be paid to how the global culture of contestation affected everyday life, individual identities, class and gender hierarchies, political decisions, and transnational interaction. Drawing on specific examples from Europe, the United States, Latin America, Africa, and Asia, the class will address a range of topics such as international youth culture, student revolts, feminism, the New Left, decolonization, Third-Worldism, artistic experimentation, counterculture, the sexual revolution, and the politics of memory. We will explore contested definitions of the Sixties and the usefulness of decades as analytical frameworks. How do scholars conceptualize the Sixties? Is this a meaningful term that could be applied to different national contexts? What does global mean, and how did global trends interact with local conditions? On a broader conceptual level, the course will ask questions about the definition and applicability of global and transnational frameworks to historical studies. While discussing specific narratives and concepts, we will look at possibilities to transcend national boundaries by interrogating global connections made possible by new cultural, social, and technological developments across the so-called First, Second, and Third Worlds.
