Desc:PROPERTY AND COMMUNITY IN MEDIEVAL EUROPE: In medieval Europe, full membership in the social and political community depended largely on the ownership of property: a share in a family palace or tower; the right to pasture one's herds or gather wood or name someone to church office; or, most often, land, whether held individually or collectively. This course will use property as a lens for viewing the life of medieval communities. Students will learn to use the fourteenth-century tax records of the Tuscan town of Cortona as a source for investigating collective and individual ownership of property, disparities of wealth and the meanings of poverty, naming patterns, migration, female heads of households, life at the center and on the margins of society, and more.

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.
