History

  
  • HS 477 - Seminar: Legends in Medieval History

    (3.00 cr.)

    Perhaps no other era in history has produced as many enduring legends as the Middle Ages. Robin Hood, Arthur of Camelot, Count Dracula, Macbeth, Charlemagne, Joan of Arc, and innumerable saints all join dragons, witches, lycanthropes, and other fantastic beasts as major elements of medieval popular culture. Study of their historicity, legendary use, and effect on medieval society proves a valuable tool to understanding the intellectual history of medieval Europe. Written or electronic permission of the instructor.

    Prerequisite: One HS 100-level course, one HS 300-level course. 
    Sessions Typically Offered: Fall/Spring

  • HS 478 - Global Histories of Sexuality

    (3.00 cr.)

    Can sex have a history? If so, what kind? This course takes a comparative and transnational perspective to the history of sexuality in pursuit of this question. It examines how societies from around the world and across time have regulated, constructed, and policed sexual behaviors and identities. The course asks how race, gender, class, and ability have inflected and shaped people's diverse sexualities and sexual experiences. In doing so, it showcases the ways that the history of sexuality reshapes our understanding of social, political, and cultural history more broadly. Topics vary by semester, but may include male homosexuality, lesbianism, (trans)gender identity and transsexuality, heterosexuality, sexual knowledge, regulation and policing, reproduction, sexual violence and crime, sex work and prostitution, queer and feminist politics, and health and medicine. Written or electronic permission of the instructor.

  • HS 479 - Seminar: Masculinity and Honor in Modern Europe

    (3.00 cr.)

    As part of the general evolution of gender studies, historians have come to realize that both male and female roles are not automatic or natural, but rather tend to be constructed by contemporary social forces. One particularly volatile or rather malleable aspect of such constructions is the notion of honor, which has substantially evolved over the last 500 years. Students examine the nature of this evolution and discusses the impact of the Renaissance, nationalism, capitalism, and liberalism on the definition of what it meant to have honor and how such rituals as knife-fighting, dueling, vendetta, and even nose-biting all served to identify and reinforce masculine behavior among classes and across centuries. Written or electronic permission of the instructor.
