1 HIST 040 EARLY MODERN EUROPE Summer 2017 Instructor: Kathryn Taylor Office: College Hall 214 Office hours: Friday, 1:00-2:00, and by appointment Day/Time: Wednesday, 4:30-8:20 This course traces the major cultural, intellectual, social, political and economic changes in Europe between 1450 to Topics will include Renaissance humanism, the impact of the printing press, the Protestant and Catholic Reformations, the Scientific Revolution, and the development of overseas empires. We will pay special attention to the political, ethnic, and religious diversity of Early Modern Europe, analyzing religious conflict and accommodation with respect to Catholics, Protestants, the Eastern Orthodox, Jews, Muslims and unbelievers. In so doing, we will examine the origins of modern conflicts about the historical definition of Europe and Europeans. We will read widely in primary sources those written at the time in order to determine not merely what happened in this period, but also how early modern Europeans understood the events through which they lived. In addition, this course will introduce students to the basic skills employed by historians, including the analysis of primary sources, the identification and critique of scholarly arguments, and the development of written arguments. Requirements include attendance and active participation in seminar meetings, discussion leading, four short primary source analyses, a mid-term, and a final exam. 1

2 REQUIRED TEXTS Wiesner-Hanks, Merry E. Early Modern Europe, nd ed. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, James Brophy, et al. Perspectives from the Past: Primary Sources in Western Civilizations: From the Age of Exploration through Contemporary Times, Vol. 2 (Sixth Edition). All additional readings will be made available online. You are expected to bring either a hard copy or an electronic copy of the week s readings to your weekly section meeting. EVALUATION Class attendance and participation 25% 4 Primary Source Analyses 20% Discussion leading 10% Midterm 20% Final Exam 25% PARTICIPATION Active participation is the foundation of seminar-style learning. In order to maximize your learning experience, it is important that you come to class having completed all the assigned readings and ready to pose questions and explore possibilities with your classmates. Regular attendance is required. Absences will only be excused for valid reasons that you must communicate to me ahead of time. PRIMARY SOURCE ANALYSES Beginning after our first week, students will be expected to write four short analyses of primary sources. Students will be split into two groups, one group will turn in analyses even-numbered weeks, another on odd-numbered weeks. This does not mean that you can skip reading the assigned primary sources on your day off. These analyses should be two to three pages long, double spaced and Times New Roman font (size 12). They are due before the start of class and should be submitted via Canvas. If you have trouble submitting on Canvas, please let me know. On the day your sources analysis is due, you will be the expert in class on that source. Be ready to answer questions about its content and context and prepare a few discussion questions for your classmates to discuss. Your analysis should include basic information about the source (who, what, where, when) and then move on to consider some of the questions listed on the handout How to Analyze a Primary Source. There is no right or wrong way to do these. What I am most interested in is that you learn to engage with sources critically and pay attention to detail. Some questions to get you started are: Textual sources: 2

3 Who is the author and what do we learn about him/her? When was it created? Why did he/she write this text? Who is the audience? What does this text teach us about the past? How does it relate to the themes of the course Visual sources: Who created this object? Why was it created? When was it created Was it commissioned by someone? What materials and tools were necessary to create this object? Where would it have originally been located? Who would have used this object? DISCUSSION LEADING Beginning after our first meeting, students will sign up to introduce the secondary readings and to start off discussion twice over the course of the semester. MIDTERM AND FINAL These in-class exams will consist of a series of ID questions along with two essays. The ID questions will ask students to identify a person/place/idea and explain their significance in relation to early modern European history. The essay questions will be pre-circulated, however notes will not be permitted in the exams. Since you will have time to prepare your questions, I will expect you to cite relevant primary source evidence and historical facts to support your argument.
