(Spring 2015)

07:20 PM to 10:00 PM M

Section Information for Spring 2015

This course is a comprehensive survey of the development of the western world from ancient times to the present day. We shall devote special attention to the ideas that continue to shape the world in which we live and our understanding of who we are. We will also concentrate our attention on how historians think, analyze, and write about the past—in other words, on what historians do and how they do it. This class therefore emphasizes the development of analytical and critical thinking skills which will be developed through in-class group work, and the reading and writing assignments which you will do.
