講義概要/Course description
|
This seminar aims to analyze major issues in Japanese and global history from a range of perspectives. Students will be able to read and discuss a variety of important works of scholarship in English from around the world, study historical sites and projects, and develop an informed understanding of how our perspectives of the past have developed.
Third years will focus on studying issues in Japanese history, considering how we can learn about the past, and historical texts and contexts. Fourth years will focus more on issues in global and comparative history. However, students will also be encouraged to pursue historical topics of interest to them, whether related to Japanese, Asian or world history. This seminar will be particularly helpful for students interested in comparing different societies and gaining a better understanding of those societies through history.
