The historical analysis of emotions – anger, fear, love, shame, joy and so on - has blossomed in the past twenty years. Arguing that emotions are at least partially defined culturally (in other words, that they are not universal biological reactions), historians have attempted to determine how past peoples understood and experienced emotions and how these understandings helped to shape historical events and processes. In this course, we’ll read a variety of materials, including theoretical treatises, case studies, and primary sources in order to answer a variety of questions, beginning with: what are emotions and how can they be studied historically? In doing so, we will explore a topic that is central to human experience, but which has received relatively little direct attention until recently.

This course will approach the tortured history of the 20th century by way of the life and writings of George Orwell. Best known for his late dystopian novels 1984 and Animal Farm, Orwell wrote many other memorable books and essays commenting on the signal events of his time. He experienced first hand (among other things): India, the British Empire, the Depression, the Spanish Civil War, the Second World War, post-war austerity and affluence, and the Cold War. And he wrote about them all with unrivaled clarity and force. Students will immerse themselves in Orwell's life, work, and times and write a substantial research paper on a relevant topic of their own choice and design.

Mexico and Brazil are countries with complex cultural, racial and ethnic histories. This advanced seminar will explore the process by which these two countries grappled with their diverse populations during the modern era and how policies and attitudes impacted citizens, residents and perceptions. The course will investigate the limitations that arose from Mexico’s pursuit of a “cosmic race” and how the myth of Brazil’s “racial democracy” was created and dispelled. We will use more modern Black migrations to these countries, for example Haitian communities in the twenty-first century, to debate the durability of these constructions and the limitations that arise from cross-country comparisons. The course will also challenge students to think theoretically regarding the salience of racial binaries. In addition to thought-provoking scholarly studies, students will read translated discourses from leading Mexican and Brazilian intellectuals and will generate their own final research papers.

What ideas, values, and anxieties found expression in the United States during the twentieth century? This seminar will pursue that question by exploring fiction, social commentary, the visual arts, and music in relation to such developments as the conduct and aftermath of war; the emergence of modern consumer culture; changing gender roles; economic hardship and affluence; and technological innovation. Reading will emphasize primary sources. Students will write a research paper reflecting their particular interests.

In this course we will explore the nature and development of Greek and Roman economies, the ways in which these economies intersected with social and political structures, and the strategies of the men and women who lived in them. We will devote considerable attention to issues of methodology: what questions should we ask about ancient economic life, and with what evidence can we answer them? All sources will be read in English translation.

Through intensive reading and discussion, we examine the politics and history of American cities. While we read scholarship drawing on the experiences of an array of cities--including Chicago, New York, Detroit, Boston, Philadelphia, Phoenix, New Haven, Atlanta, Buffalo, and Charlotte--our emphasis is on commonalities in the urban experience as well as on systematic differences. We analyze the relationship of cities to their hinterlands in the early stages of urban development, the rise of ethnic neighborhoods, suburbanization, industrialization, de-industrialization, housing and jobs, concentrated poverty, and population changes. Race, ethnicity, and class are central to this course, not only in understanding changes in neighborhoods but also in the nature of politics and governmental arrangements.

Our world is replete with frontiers. We speak of the frontiers of science and medicine, of new or unexpected frontiers in the farthest reaches of the globe, of space as the ‘final frontier.’ The term itself implies action: frontiers are to be crossed, conquered, and pushed back. These frontiers of our popular imagination owe much to a theory first articulated more than a century ago. While it has been challenged, historians have since explored how various frontiers—physical, religious, political, linguistic, cultural—have defined societies throughout the world. Viewing frontiers as barriers but also sites for cultural exchange, we’ll look at colonization, settlement, trade, and the spread of ideas.

Apprentice teachers act as participant-observers in an undergraduate course under the close supervision of a member of the faculty. Ordinarily, students will attend the course; hold weekly meetings with the professor to discuss the progress of the course, and, in many cases, consider strategies for teaching the weeks assigned reading, assist the professor in preparing examination questions, paper topics, and other written assignments; gain experience in evaluating undergraduates work by reading and commenting on (but not grading) exams and essays; and prepare a lecture or lead a class discussion.
