- TOPIC: The Black Death: Plague in History In 1348, the disease that would be called the Black Death swept west from Central Asia to Europe, where it quickly annihilated up to 1/3 of Europe's population in about one year. This was neither the first nor the last occurrence of this dread disease in World history. The Justinianic Plague of the 6th century was devastating as well. This course will investigate the nature and effects of plague in its many medieval visitations. Plague is only one of a number of epidemic diseases such as AIDS, Ebola, and Swine Flu that have wrecked havoc in human societies. We will focus on Western Europe and the societies with which it came into contact, in terms of demographic, economic, social, psychic, intellectual and artistic effects.

- TOPIC: The long Civil Rights Movement The field of civil rights history has expanded tremendously in the past decade, from a focus on the non-violent movement against southern Jim Crow to analysis of a full spectrum of African American politics in the post-World War II era. This change has resulted from increasing dialogue among scholars of African American history and scholars in women's history, labor history, and the history of foreign and domestic policy. It has also led scholars to rethink basic categories of class and gender, as well as dichotomies between moderate and militant, non-violent and Black Power, or northern and southern that seemed unproblematic to earlier scholars of the movement. This expansion has allowed scholars to understand the civil rights movement as a thread uniting a wide array of social, economic and political changes that characterized postwar American history. Historian Jacquelyn Dowd Hall calls this thread the "long civil rights movement." Students in this course will participate in this rethinking of the civil rights movement by producing a 8-10 page paper based on their own primary research. Over the course of the semester, they will read and discuss books and articles that have inspired or built upon the rethinking. They will also learn to identify and use archival records, oral history interviews, and newspaper accounts that document the movement. They will team up with a writing partner who will critique their work and share strategies for completing the final writing assignment before the end of the semester.

This course is taught as a seminar and is offered as one of the options for meeting the capstone requirement for completing the undergraduate history major. It is designed to advance your skills in historical research and writing and to assist you in preparing and completing your major paper. This is your opportunity to do independent historical research and analysis and to write your own original account and explanation of an historical development. The major paper is a 20-30 page essay based on original research in primary sources (i.e., letters, diaries, memoirs, contemporary interviews, newspaper articles, government papers, or other contemporary documents), rather than simply scholarly articles or books by historians.

- Exam Format:
- No exams
- Class Format:
- Seminar format with class discussions, small group work, short oral presentations
- Workload:
- The syllabus includes limited general class readings. The bulk of work for the course focuses on individual research and writing of the major paper
