L22 History 101CWestern Civilization I3.0 UnitsLab Required
Description:This course is a history of Western civilization from 3500 BC to AD 1600. Western Civilization may be characterized as one long debate on the holy. In no other civilization did this debate about the limits of the sacred and the profane, this constant effort at trying to grasp the divine through word and deed, last continuously for over five thousand years. To argue over the holy is to argue over the very nature of how to live a life, from the most mundane daily activity to the most sublime act of the imagination. It is to argue over how politics, economics, art, philosophy, literature, and religion are realized in a society. Apart from many types of polytheism, we study the three great world monotheistic religions - Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. We study the ancient cultures of north Africa and the eastern Mediterranean, the empires of Alexander the Great and imperial Rome, the Christianization of the Roman empire and the rise of Islam, the early medieval world in the North Sea and the Byzantine Empire in Constantinople, the formation of Latin Christendom and the papal monarchy, the crusades and the reaction of the Islamic lands, concepts of individuality, the persecution of Jews and heretics, chivalry and peasant servitude, the Mongol Empire, the Black Death and the devastation of the fourteenth century, the renaissance in Italy and the Protestant reformation, the hunt for witches and the scientific revolution, the medieval origins of the African diaspora and the European conquest of the Americas. What defined being human, and so a man, a woman, or a child over five millennia? A fundamental question of this course is what is "Western Civilization" and when do the characteristics defined as "western" come together as coherent phenomenon? What, then, is historical truth? This course (through lectures, reading primary sources, discussion sections, and essay writing) gives the student a learned background in almost five thousand years of history. Introductory course to the major and/or minor. DISCUSSION SECTION IS REQUIRED.

L22 History 2006"Reading" Culture: The Visible and the Invisible: Introduction to American Visual Culture Studies3.0 Units
Description:The poor are the "unseen" multitudes, the Ku Klux Klan is the "Invisible Empire," W.E.B. Du Bois's African American culture exists "behind the veil," gay men and women come in and out of "the closet," terrorists lie hidden in "sleeper cells"-these are just a few of the common visual metaphors used to describe the complex forces and subjects that make up U.S. culture. Despite its status as metaphor, however, visuality shapes our relationship to American society in very real ways. To become visible in the eyes of the state is to access citizenship, to become a full member of the social world. In this course, we will encounter a variety of cultural texts that figure identity through visibility. From narratives of haunting in U.S. culture to spectacular displays of national identity and accounts of minority groups insisting on the right to be seen, we will look to the moments in American culture when the question of visibility has been most crucial. The course is arranged thematically and will feature both primary texts as well as classic and contemporary work in the field of American Studies. Possible topics include: the theory and practice of Holy Land tourism in the nineteenth century; antebellum hoax culture; the relationship between lynching and mass media; documentary accounts of natural disasters from the San Francisco earthquake to Hurricane Katrina; queer representation in popular media; the rise and fall of the Vine app; the rhetoric of terrorist "sleeper cells"; oppositional mythologies of the "white working class" and "undocumented" immigrants. The semester will culminate with a discussion of the globalization of American Studies alongside a serial viewing of the first season of the acclaimed drama series, Homeland (2011). American Culture Studies (AMCS) is a multidisciplinary program that provides both a broader context for study in different fields and a deeper understanding of American culture in all of its complexities.

Desc:THE STUDY OF THE MIDDLE AGES: This course concerns itself with addressing and familiarizing students with some of the major issues, debates, problems, themes, and methods, adopted and adapted by historians of the Middle Ages. As such, a great deal is not only learned about the Middle Ages themselves, from around 300 to just after 1500, but also about the history of medieval history, from the the seventeenth century up to the twenty-first. Each week we will explore the various methodologies for discovering and reading primary sources of various kinds, whether a chronicle, a poem, a land contract, inquisition records, and even textual fragments that nevertheless that help us imagine the past. How an historian writes is as important as what he or she says and so this course will pay close attention to the art and craft of the historian. Is history a science as was argued in the nineteenth century? What, ultimately, is truth for the historian? Topics to be explored are the Christianization in the early Middle Ages, the relationship of popes to kings, of cities to villages, of Jews to Christians, of vernacular literature to Latin, of knights to peasants, of the sacred to the profane. Along the way, our attention will be directed to things as various as different forms of religious life, the establishment of frontier communities, the crusading movement, heresy, magic, witchcraft, the shift from a penitential culture to a confessional one, the beginnings of the inquisition, Gothic art, the devil, chivalry, manuscript illumination, definitions of feudalism, female spirituality, and the Black Death. Finally, the question of "medievalism" will be thought about - in other words, how ideas about the Middle Ages, whether bizarre or not, have shaped nineteenth, twentieth, and twenty-first century Europe and America. Students will participate in weekly discussions and write two historiographic essays. PREREQUISITE: NONE. Pre-Modern, Europe. This section is crosslisted with L23 301R.

Desc:THINGS: A HISTORICAL METHODS SEMINAR: We live, we are told, in a consumerist society. Our lives are mediated by, and through, the things we surround ourselves with. They become synecdoche for untold experiences, moments of our lives frozen in material form. They stand in for political ideas, for morals, for labor issues, for "ways of life." They help to worship and they open gateways to the world of art. We can be dependent on them. We can throw them away without a thought. This seminar will look at various things from what has now been termed the "first consumer revolution" (1650-1850): pocket watches; guns; tobacco; ginseng; woolen blankets; Chinese porcelain; chocolate; cowrie shells; maps; and vacuum pumps. A famous painting and a cheap engraving. A book. Or even one of your things. PREREQUISITE: NONE. Modern, Transregional. This section is crosslisted with L97 301.

L22 History 3082City on a Hill: The Concept and Culture of American Exceptionalism3.0 Units
Description:This course examines the concept, history, and culture of American exceptionalism-the idea that America has been specially chosen, or has a special mission to the world. First, we examine the Puritan sermon that politicians quote when they describe America as a "city on a hill." This sermon has been called the "ur-text" of American literature, the foundational document of American culture; learning and drawing from multiple literary methodologies, we will re-investigate what that sermon means and how it came to tell a story about the Puritan origins of American culture-a thesis our class will reassess with the help of modern critics. In the second part of this class, we will broaden our discussion to consider the wider (and newer) meanings of American exceptionalism, theorizing the concept while looking at the way it has been revitalized, redefined and redeployed in recent years. Finally, the course ends with a careful study of American exceptionalism in modern political rhetoric, starting with JFK and proceeding through Reagan to the current day, ending with an analysis of Donald Trump and the rise of "America First." In the end, students will gain a firm grasp of the long history and continuing significance-the pervasive impact-of this concept in American culture. American Culture Studies (AMCS) is a multidisciplinary program that provides both a broader context for study in different fields and a deeper understanding of American culture in all of its complexities.

L22 History 3173Service Learning: Documenting the Queer Past in St. Louis4.0 Units
Description:Around the U.S. and the world, grassroots LGBTQ history projects investigate the queer past as a means of honoring the courage of those who have come before, creating a sense of community today, and understanding the exclusions and divisions that shaped their communities and continue to limit them. In this course, we participate in this national project of history-making by helping to excavate the queer past in the greater St. Louis region. Course readings will focus on the ways that sexual identities and communities in the United States have been shaped by urban settings since the late nineteenth century, with particular attention to the ways that race, class and gender have structured queer spaces and communities. In their community service project, students will work with local LGBTQ groups, including the St. Louis LGBT History Project, to research St. Louis's queer past. Each student will also conduct an oral history interview with an LGBTQ community member. IMPORTANT NOTE: This is a service-learning class, which means it combines classroom learning with outside work at a community organization. In addition to regular class time, there is a service requirement, which necessitates an additional 3-5 hours a week. Before beginning community service students must complete required training. Prerequisite: Introduction to Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies or Introduction to Queer Studies, or permission of instructor.

L22 History 3731Topics in Near Eastern Cultures: Slavery in the Middle East3.0 Units
Description:This course will examine slavery and its abolition in the Middle East and North Africa from 600 through the present time. Starting from late antique practices of slavery, we will expand our discussion chronologically to cover various forms of slavery as practiced and imagined through the centuries. In addition to theoretical and moral discussions of slavery in pertinent genres of literature, we will be examining household, field, and military slavery as well as the remarkable phenomenon of slave dynasties. We will conclude with the abolition of slavery in the 19th and 20th centuries and discuss the legacy of slavery in the contemporary Middle East. Topics of discussion will include legal and moral views on slavery, forms of male and female slavery, political, military, and economic dimensions of slavery, issues of race and gender as well as slave writings to reflect on experiences of slavery from within. Primary sources in Turkish, Persian, and Arabic will be available for those who have an advanced knowledge in any one of them, but both primary and secondary sources will be in English. The goal is to enable students to understand slavery in the Middle East in its various forms and practices and eventually compare it to that of other regions and cultures, such as European and Atlantic slavery.

L22 History 3810Between Sand and Sea: History, Environment, and Politics in the Arabian Peninsula3.0 Units
Description:Although today primarily associated with oil, the Arabian peninsula was for most of its history defined by water: its surrounding seas, its monsoon-driven winds, and its lack of water in its vast and forbidding interior deserts. As home to the major holy cities of Islam and a key source of global oil, the region has played an important role in the Western European and North American imagination. Despite being relatively sparsely populated, the peninsula hosts millions of believers each year on the annual Muslim pilgrimage and has been the site of major wars and military occupations by European, American, and other Middle Eastern countries for much of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries: an outpost of the Ottoman Empire, center of British colonialism and (at Aden) an axis of its global empire, location of Egypt's "Vietnam" (its long war in Yemen in the 1960s), the Gulf Wars I and II, the recent wars in Yemen, to name a just a few of the major conflicts. Often depicted as unchanging until caught up by the influx of massive oil wealth, this region is frequently characterized as a place of contradictions: home to some of the world's largest skyscrapers and also the most inhospitable and largest sand desert in the world, known as "the Empty Quarter"; the location of crucial American allies and the home of al-Qa'eda founder `Usama Bin Laden. In this course, we will examine the development of the peninsula historically to understand these contradictory images. We will investigate changes in the following arenas: environment and society; colonial occupation; newly independent states; the demise and development of key economic sectors (pearling, shipping; agriculture; oil; finance; piracy); political regimes; resources such as water, oil, date palms; the growth of oil extraction infrastructure and its effects on the political regimes and societies in the region; the emergence of new Gulf cities; Islamic law; women's rights; human rights debates; religious and ethnic minorities. PREREQUISITE: Sophomore standing or permission of the instructor. Modern, Middle East.

L22 History 4010Capstone Seminar: Antisemitism and Islamophobia: A Comparative Perspective3.0 Units
Description:The capstone course for Jewish, Islamic, & Near Eastern Studies majors, Arabic majors, and Hebrew majors and an advanced seminar in History. Today's newpapers, magazines, and websites are filled with images and sweeping characterizations of Islam and its adherents. Many of these messages are embedded with symbolic associations designed to provoke concern and even fear in their readers and listeners. One reads and hears that Muslims cannot be--or refuse to be--integrated into European or American society; that Islam has no conception of democratic citizenship; that Islamic law produces anti-social behavior; indeed, that Islam poses a severe threat to Western security and values. To anyone who has studied the history of Jewish-Christian relations in the West since the Middle Ages, many of these charges will appear eerily familiar. Each of these claims, in one form or another, has been directed toward Jews and Judaism in the past, as recently as the 20th century though less so today. One wonders then, whether these are merely recycled tropes, to which identical meanings have been attached, or distinct responses to fundamentally different historical situations? To what extent should the Jewish historical experience influence how we assess and understand the contemporary encounter of Islam with the West? At the same time, Jewish communities and individuals have had their own history of relations with the Islamic world, at times distinct from those of the West, at times deeply entwined. This course, then, has two intersecting goals: The first is to survey Western, mainly Christian, conceptions of Jews and of Muslims--Judaism and Islam--since the Middle Ages, being alert to common patterns but also to important distinctions between the two phenomena. The second is to examine some key episodes in Jewish-Muslim encounters: e.g., medieval Iberia; the early-modern Ottoman empire; Zionism and Arab nationalisms; and the current Israeli-Palestinian conflict. One of our major challenges will be to examine how a body of images and symbolic associations can be deployed against different cultures and social groups, in distinct historical settings, and whether the differences in chronology and context render the two situations incomparable.

L22 History 5810Beyond Sand and Sea: History, Environment and Politics in the Arabian Peninsula3.0 Units
Description:Although today primarily associated with oil, the Arabian peninsula was for most of its history defined by water: its surrounding seas, its monsoon-driven winds, and its lack of water in its vast and forbidding interior deserts. As home to the major holy cities of Islam and a key source of global oil, the region has played an important role in the Western European and North American imagination. Despite being relatively sparsely populated, the peninsula hosts millions of believers each year on the annual Muslim pilgrimage and has been the site of major wars and military occupations by European, American, and other Middle Eastern countries for much of the twentieth and twenty-first centuries: an outpost of the Ottoman Empire, center of British colonialism and (at Aden) an axis of its global empire, location of Egypt's "Vietnam" (its long war in Yemen in the 1960s), the Gulf Wars I and II, the recent wars in Yemen, to name a just a few of the major conflicts. Often depicted as unchanging until caught up by the influx of massive oil wealth, this region is frequently characterized as a place of contradictions: home to some of the world's largest skyscrapers and also the most inhospitable and largest sand desert in the world, known as "the Empty Quarter"; the location of crucial American allies and the home of al-Qa'eda founder `Usama Bin Laden. In this course, we will examine the development of the peninsula historically to understand these contradictory images. We will investigate changes in the following arenas: environment and society; colonial occupation; newly independent states; the demise and development of key economic sectors (pearling, shipping; agriculture; oil; finance; piracy); political regimes; resources such as water, oil, date palms; the growth of oil extraction infrastructure and its effects on the political regimes and societies in the region; the emergence of new Gulf cities; Islamic law; women's rights; human rights debates; religious and ethnic minorities. PREREQUISITE: Sophomore standing or permission of the instructor. Modern, Middle East.

Label

Home/Ident

A course may be either a “Home” course or an “Ident” course.

A “Home” course is a course that is created, maintained and “owned” by one academic department (aka the “Home” department). The “Home” department is primarily responsible for the decision making and logistical support for the course and instructor.

An “Ident” course is the exact same course as the “Home” (i.e. same instructor, same class time, etc), but is simply being offered to students through another department for purposes of registering under a different department and course number.

Students should, whenever possible, register for their courses under the department number toward which they intend to count the course. For example, an AFAS major should register for the course "Africa: Peoples and Cultures" under its Ident number, L90 306B, whereas an Anthropology major should register for the same course under its Home number, L48 306B.

Grade Options
C=Credit (letter grade)
