1 HIST 6200 ISLAM AND MODERNITY FALL 2014 Wednesday, 16:00-18:29 Room: Main 323 L INSTRUCTOR Danielle Ross danielle.ross@usu.edu OFFICE HOURS MWF 12:30-13:30 or by appointment IMPORTANT DATES First Day of Classes: Monday, August 25 Last Day of Classes: Friday December 5 Final Exam: No final exam for this class DESCRIPTION This course introduces students to the study of Muslim societies from the late 1700s to the early 2000s. In the course of this period, Muslim societies found themselves politically and economically subjugated to non-muslim states. At the same time, Muslims encountered new technologies and new ideas that altered, sometimes radically, hierarchies, worldviews, and possibilities within their communities. This combination of factors led political leaders, clergy and laypeople to what had happened to the Islamic world, what it meant to be a good Muslim and whether Islam as a lived religion was compatible with life in a modern world. These questions and the conflicts sparked by them persisted across the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and continue to play out today. We will being this course by examining some of the theoretical and methodological approaches scholars have used to analyze Islamic history in the modern period. We will then turn to the topics and subfields of Islamic history, including, but not limited to the role of the ulama or the Muslim clergy, Islamic education, women and feminism, fundamentalism, and state-driven modernization. Note: All students are expected to be aware of all information provided in this syllabus. OBJECTIVES By the end of this course, students will: Be familiar with the major historiographical questions in modern Islamic history Be able to identify the thesis, approach and source base of a given piece of scholarly writing and place it within a broader historiographical debate Be able to compose a literature study for a given historiographical debate
2 Will be able to pose original questions in response to a given body of historiographical literature a COURSE FORMAT This course will meet once per week for 2 ½ hours. The course will be in seminar format and the students will take turns providing their classmates with a verbal introduction to the week s topic and readings. All students are expected to take part in the discussion and participation will account for a significant portion of the student s final grade. Note: Your instructor cannot provide lecture notes for classes you have missed. It is your responsibility to attend class and to get any notes you may miss from a classmate. REQUIRED TEXTS The required texts for this class include the following: 1. Edward Said, Orientalism 2. Adeeb Khalid, The Politics of Muslim Cultural Reform: Jadidism in Central Asia 3. Muhammad Qasim Zaman, The Ulama in Contemporary Islam: Custodians of Change 4. Saba Mahmood, Politics of Piety: The Islamic Revival and the Feminine Object 5. Douglas Northrop, Veiled Empire: Gender and Politics in Stalinist Central Asia 6. Talal Asad, Genealogies of Religion: Discipline and Power in Christianity and Islam Additional readings will be posted online via Canvas. A schedule of readings will be provided in the syllabus. The students will be responsible for completing readings before the seminar for which they are assigned.
3 COURSE REQUIREMENTS ATTENDANCE POLICY Both the material presented in class and the assigned readings are integral to the course. Therefore, it is in your best interest to attend class regularly and to do the reading consistently. Attendance will not be taken and you will not be graded according to your presence in class, but you will be expected to participate in weekly seminar discussions and part of your grade will be based upon your participation. In the event that you miss a class, makeup lectures will not be provided. In the event that you miss a paper deadline due to an excused absence, (i.e. doctor s appointment, medical emergency, death of a relative), you may contact the instructor, who will set a new date for the completion of the assignment. Paper deadlines may also be schedules if you are participating in a university event at that time and have obtained permission from the instructor in advance. PAPERS AND PRESENTATIONS During this semester you will be asked to complete three assignments. At least one of these must be an in-class presentation and at least one must be a literature survey. The third may be one or the other. The guidelines for these assignments will be given in class. All sources that you use must be clearly cited in your paper. You may use footnotes to provide this information. Footnotes should be provided for: 1) Material directly quoted from any text 2) Material paraphrased from any text 3) Ideas and arguments that you have seen in someone else s work If you have any questions about the readings, about how to cite your sources, or about the papers in general, please bring them to your instructor. ADDITIONAL POLICIES ON ASSIGNMENTS Submission of Assignments All assignments must be completed and submitted by the announced deadlines. You must complete all assignments. Failure to submit an assignment will result in a grade of 0% for that assignment. In other words, even if your paper is terrible, you are better off submitting something than nothing at all. Late Assignments Extensions will be allowed only if they have been arranged ahead of time with your instructor and only in cases in which the student has a valid reason for not being able to turn in the assignment on time. (Valid reasons include: doctor appointments, illness or injury requiring medical attention, automobile accidents, or the death of a close relative. Other circumstances may be taken under consideration by the instructor on a case-by-case basis.) If you submit work late without a valid reason, or without previous approval from the instructor, your grade will be reduced by half a letter grade per day late (i.e., a B would become a B-, a B- would become a C).
4 GRADING Your grade will be determined as follows: In-class Presentation 25% Literature Survey 1 25% Literature Survey 2 25%* Participation 25% Total 100% In place of a second literature survey, a student may choose to do a second in-class presentation GRADING SCALE A B D A C D B C F 59.5 and below B C Note: the instructor reserves the right to consider a student s improvement over the course of the semester in determining final grades. RESERVE CLAUSE The instructor reserves the right to make changes in the syllabus when necessary or beneficial to meet the objectives of the course, to compensate for missed classes or schedule changes, or for similar legitimate reasons. Students will be notified of any such changes to the syllabus in adequate time to adjust to those changes. ACADEMIC MISCONDUCT The instructor of this class enforces a zero-tolerance policy toward plagiarism and cheating. Plagiarism includes: 1) Copying (or cutting and pasting) someone else s writing into your work without proper citation. 2) Paraphrasing or summarizing someone else s writing in your work without proper citation. 3) Presenting someone else s idea or argument in your paper without proper citation. It is your responsibility as a student to learn how to cite the sources you use. If someone else s material is found in your paper without proper acknowledgement from you, it will be assumed that your theft of that person s work or ideas was intentional. The minimum penalty for plagiarism is a zero on the assignment. Cheating includes (but is not limited to): 1) Bringing notes to an exam on a note card, mobile phone, hand, or other medium when the instructor had forbidden students to do so. 2) Copying from a fellow student s work with or without that student s permission
5 3) Creating disruptions during the examination period 4) Providing a false excuse for having missed an exam or paper deadline 5) Gaining access to any material (teachers notes, answer keys, other students work) that would give the exam-taker or paper-writer an unfair advantage over his/her fellow students. The minimum penalty for any of the abovementioned actions or a similar form of cheating is a grade of zero on the assignment.
