Class Description:
CSCL 1501W Reading History: Theory and Practice 4 credits, meets Lib Ed req of Historical Perspective Core; meets Lib Ed req of Writing Intensive Course description: ?Theory? in the title of this course refers to the various ways of thinking about the past and conceptualizing history; ?Practice? refers to ways of reading and writing critically about these concepts and theories in order to analyse how the past is imagined and history is written. In other words, this is not a course on how to write history, and the goal of this course is not to present a chronological account of historical events. Instead, we will continuously engage critically with how and why history is written and the past is remembered. We will read texts of and on history from Antiquity to the present, and analyze objects from a wide variety of sources, from ancient and medieval texts to music videos and the buildings that surround us.
