Section Information for Summer 2019
Beginning in 1450, this course will use global history to investigate historical trends both shaped by humans and that, in turn, helped shape human life. With a focus on culture and identity, as well as investigations into politics, economics, and society, this course will take a topical approach to examining trends in world history, focusing on specific parts of the globe including not just North America, but also Latin America, Asia, Africa, and Europe. Students will learn how to identify and describe important trends in global history, and will be able to determine distant and proximate causes for both historical events and events today. They will be provided with a lexicon with which they can describe the creation and evolution of historical identities on an individual and global scale. Through a combination of course readings and lecture, students will be able to develop an understanding of a timeline of important global historical events. This is a required core course.
