Raj to Republic: India in the Modern World (1756-1984)
The Indian subcontinent has for centuries been central to global patterns of
trade, conquest and migration. As the world’s largest democracy, India has
recently become an object of widespread attention due to its continued
robust growth and extraordinary economic potential. Moreover, in the ‘post9/11’ climate, the world has been reminded of the significance of Indian and
Pakistani nuclear potential, as well as South Asia’s strategic location nestled
between Central Asia, the Middle East, and China. In order to contextualize
India’s increasingly pivotal role in today’s world, this course will examine
the major themes in modern Indian history. Through an investigation of the
evolution of the caste system, the implications of changing religious,
communal, sexual and cultural identities, as well as the specific challenges
posed to South Asian societies by economic and commercial development,
students will consider the subcontinent’s transition from Raj to Republic.(N)

History
The Viking Age (c. 800-1100 AD): History and Culture of the
Medieval Scandinavian Expansion
Who were the "Vikings"? Though the word "Viking" is charged with
meaning in modern popular culture, the true cultural identity of the
medieval Scandinavian peoples it refers to is often misunderstood.
This course will explore various elements this cultural identity,
including the art, language, literature and material culture that
characterised the medieval Scandinavians both in their homelands of
Denmark, Sweden and Norway, and in their Eastern and Western
expansions throughout Europe and beyond. This dramatic diaspora, which
we have come to know as the Viking Age (c.800-1100), is a phenomenon
that must be studied both in its domestic and its wider European contexts.
Though often considered as peripheral to the main narratives of European
medieval history, the Vikings had a wide-ranging and lasting impact that
has left its cultural marks to this day.

These courses are reserved for students in history (majors, honours
specialisation, and joint honours). We do not have enough resources
to accommodate all students who would wish to take these courses.
You are therefore limited to the number required to graduate, unless
you receive special permission from the department (see registration
FAQ on the department website for more information).
If you register without permission for more 4000 courses or seminars
than you need, we unfortunately will have no choice but to remove
you from the extra seminar (otherwise some students will not be able
to graduate.)

Seminar in Canadian History
(3,0,0) 3 cr.
Canadian Historiography: Historians Interprete Canada’s Past.
The objective of this course is to provide students with an overview of
the History of Canadian Historians. How have Canadian historians,
writing in either or both of Canada’s two official languages,
understood their role as historians? To what extent are Canadian
historians influenced by their upbringing, their education, and their
times? How have these factors shaped or altered over time the
interpretation of the central themes and personalities in the Canadian
historical experience.
The initial focus of the seminar discussions will be on the monographs
of Carl Berger and Ronald Rudin that deal with English language and
French language Canadian historians. Students will be called upon to
analyze the evolving interpretations presented by these historians--as
individuals and as members of a particular school— on a chosen
historical topic. The goal is to understand why and how specific
historical interpretations emerged. What were the strengths and
weaknesses of a specific historical interpretation? It will also be
important to explain how and why an established interpretation of a
past event or historical personality was set aside for a new
interpretation.C)

Seminar in American History
(3,0,0) 3 cr.
American Foreign Policy History Since 1914
The United States entered the 20th Century as a regional power. It
declined to join World War I until 1917 but sought to shape the peace.
Despite Woodrow Wilson’s efforts, the Allies inflicted a punitive
peace while an isolationist American people rejected his hopes for a
wider US global role. Thus while the United States remained involved
economically with other nations, it declined any firm diplomatic or
military commitments to combat Italy, Japan, and Germany before
WWII. So, when war came again in 1939, Americans declared their
neutrality though by 1941 they were supplying military aid to an
embattled Britain, fighting an undeclared naval war with Germany, and
pushing Japan towards confrontation in the Pacific. Once Japan’s
surprise attack occurred in December 1941, President Franklin
Roosevelt, powered by America’s immense economic and military
might, sought to control the Allied war effort and decisively shape the
postwar world. After war’s end, the United States began a Cold War
confrontation with the Soviet Union that led to wars in Korea and
Vietnam, a confrontation that ended only with the Soviet Union’s
collapse in 1991. But new issues, notably wars in Iraq and
Afghanistan, dashed hopes that a New World Order would ensue. (A)

People of Plenty: Consumerism in Modern America
This seminar explores the historic development of consumer culture in
late-nineteenth and twentieth century America. We will explore the
intellectual and socio-cultural history of modern consumption, with an
eye for the changing politics of consumption over time. We will also
pay attention to the ways in which consumption informs identity in the
realm of race, gender, age, and class, and the evolution of these
consumer-identities throughout the twentieth century. Students will be
expected to complete weekly readings and actively participate in class
discussions based on those readings, and other in-class material.(A)

Seminar in African history
(3,0,0) 3 cr.
Reading Empire’s Vision.
To speak of the ‘tensions of empire’ is largely a commonplace
observation in studies of European colonialism. This seminar focuses
on sub-Saharan Africa’s colonial era, examining the social, political
and economic transformations associated with colonial rule. We will
explore what sort of tensions empire produced in Africa, consider the
consequences of such tensions within African societies and observe
these tensions by ‘reading’ colonial era photographs and other images.
In addition to methodological and theoretical studies on colonialism,
visuality and photography, specific themes to be covered may include
gender, labor, leisure, education and military service. Participants’
research projects will be based on close analysis of photographs as
historical documents. Note: Some background in African history will
be highly useful. As well, HIS2100, HIS2500 or the equivalent is
strongly encouraged; this recommendation cannot be emphasised
forcefully enough.

Methodology
Microhistory Seminar
Holmes to Watson: "Never trust to general impressions, my boy, but
concentrate yourself upon the details. "
-Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, " A Case of Identity"
Holmes to Watson: "You know my method. It is founded upon the
observation of trifles. "
-Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, "The Bascombe Valley Mystery"
(quoted in Ed Muir Observing trifles)
Microhistory is a particular methodological approach to the study and
writing of history. The aim of microhistory is to present especially
peculiar moments in the past by focusing on the lives and activities of
a discrete person or group of people. By illuminating the trials and
tribulations of ordinary people in their everyday lives, microhistory
aims to show both the extent of and the limits upon human agency, i.e.
the ability of individuals to make meaningful choices and undertake
meaningful actions in their lives. By analyzing what might often seem
to modern readers as strange and bizarre events and socially marginal
peoples, microhistory offers a more inclusive understanding of who
and what matters within the discipline of history.
This seminar will survey the different approaches to the practice of
microhistory. It will also examine the various intellectual and
methodological debates surrounding it. Students will be introduced to
some of the key books and articles that have helped shape
microhistory. However, the bulk of the seminar will be spent with
students defining, elaborating and carrying through a small archivalbased research project using microhistory as their methodological and
conceptual approach. Various, suitable, on-campus, online or at
Library Archives Canada archival collections will be proposed by the
instructor. This project will not only introduce the students to relatively
underused Fur Trade, Métis and Missionary archival collections but
will also allow them to test the relative strengths and weaknesses of
microhistory as a conceptual and methodological approach.

History
American Mythology: Touchstones in the Making of Modern
America
This course looks at America, both the America of fact and the
America of fiction. At the turn of the 21st century, the dominant
influence of the United States in global affairs is undeniable. And yet,
very few people outside of the U.S. itself have spent a concerted
amount of time studying its past, and informing themselves about the
unique (or conversely, the common) elements of American history.
Even rarer than this is the time most of us have spent attempting to
understand what motivates American citizens, why and how certain
policies and preoccupations have evolved, and how different segments
of American society have gradually developed their understanding of
the world. In this course, we will look at how these forces played
themselves out in post-war America. (A)

Race, Colonialism, and Indigeneity in Comparative Context
This course will examine the broader themes of race, colonialism, and
Indigenous identity, particularly as they developed alongside postEnlightenment science in the 19th and early 20th centuries. With
examples from multiple countries, the course will take a comparative
approach to examining the ways in which race, hybridity, and scientific
theories about human difference shaped the course of colonialism and
of national, legal, and cultural identity. Racial constructions in the
French, British, and Spanish empires will be considered.

Postwar Europe and its Borders: History of Migration and
Integration
One cannot understand contemporary Europe without taking its history
of migration into account. Considered by many to have become the
epicentre of global migration flows, this process has been - and is still
today - fraught with tensions. The immediate postwar political and
economic landscape greatly impacted the way migration to Europe
developed, from labour recruitment programs and postcolonial
migration to increased numbers of refugees and the harmonization of
EU asylum policies. As such, this seminar aims to highlight the ideas,
institutions, and actors that have influenced the evolution of migration
in postwar Europe. The objective is to provide the student with the
necessary theoretical and analytical tools to be able to grasp how
migration has affected both Europe itself and those entering its
borders.

historiographical importance. Themes to be considered include: state
and governance; religious change and political conflict; dearth and
political economy; patrician society and plebeian culture; riot and
rebellion; custom and law; conflict and consensus; and continuity and

Séminaire en histoire du Canada
(3,0,0) 3 cr.
La francophonie canadienne depuis 1960
Depuis les années 1960, la francophonie canadienne hors Québec a
connu de profonds bouleversements attribuables, notamment, à la
transformation de ses structures sociales, de ses valeurs et de son mode
de vie. La Révolution tranquille, par ailleurs, a puissamment modifié la
nature des rapports entre le Québec et les minorités de langue française
des autres provinces, tant et si bien que de nombreux acteurs sont allés
jusqu’à décréter la mort de l’ancien « Canada français ». Dans le cadre
de ce séminaire, nous nous pencherons, d’une part, sur les
transformations qu’a connues la francophonie canadienne depuis les
années 1960. D’autre part, nous tenterons de comprendre la manière
dont les communautés francophones minoritaires ont cherché, dans un
tel contexte, à se « refonder », à se donner de nouvelles assises
identitaires. S’il est vrai que les anciens référents identitaires
(canadiens-français ou acadiens) ont été marginalisés, par quel(s)
projet(s) a-t-on voulu les remplacer? Quelle place le souvenir du
Canada français et de l’Acadie historique occupe-t-il, à l’heure
actuelle, dans la construction identitaire des communautés
francophones? Ces dernières se considèrent-elles comme des entités
autonomes, capables de choisir leur propre destin, ou comme des sousgroupes du plus vaste ensemble canadien? Parmi les thèmes que nous
aborderons, retenons les suivants : diversification ethnoculturelle des
communautés francophones; croissance du rôle des gouvernements
fédéral et provinciaux dans la construction de leur espace public;
dispersion et minorisation; traditionalisme et progressisme;
assimilation et acculturation; développement culturel et institutionnel;
régionalismes identitaires; transformation du rapport au catholicisme;
luttes politiques et sociales; relations avec le Québec, etc.
Tout au long de ce cours, nous tâcherons d’étudier les communautés
francophones par le biais de ce qu’elles ont en partage (leurs éléments
de convergence), mais aussi par le biais de ce qui les distingue les unes
des autres (leurs éléments de divergence). Une forte attention sera
accordée, notamment, à la spécificité de l’Acadie, dont le rapport à
l’ancien projet national canadien-français était plus ambigu que chez la
plupart des autres communautés francophones minoritaires. (C)

La société américaine, 1776-1830 : Culture des Lumières,
révolution, et formation nationale
Dans ce séminaire nous examinons la société américaine à l’époque de
la Révolution et au début de la période nationale. Nous commençons
avec les théories épistémologiques et cognitives qui ont constitué à la
fois la base de l’édifice philosophique de la culture des Lumières et la
base du processus de subversion et d’invention du nouvel État-nation
américain. Nous enchaînons avec les nouvelles sciences sociales qui
ont joué un rôle crucial dans l’émergence de la révolution et du
républicanisme américains. Nous examinons la nature de la révolution
et des institutions politiques et sociales qui en ont découlé, la place de
la religion, la nouvelle économie post-mercantiliste, l’esclavage, la
place des femmes dans la société, le rôle de l’éducation et des lettres,
ainsi que le développement du nationalisme et de l’universalisme
américains. Nous terminons avec le regard d’observateurs étrangers sur
la nature de cette expérience inédite et complexe. Le séminaire
implique des lectures extensives de documents primaires et secondaires
en français et en anglais, des présentations orales et une dissertation.

permettra d’aborder les origines et la manière dont se sont déployés les
changements fondamentaux ayant affecté la société américaine
relativement aux droits civiques, de même que les combats multiples
menés pour leur obtention et leur exercice. Quoique faisant une place
importante au mouvement pour les droits civiques afro-américain, ce

The Haudenosaunee (Iroquois): A history of a people and their
land from the Peacemaker to the Oka Crisis
Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) nations inhabited and dominated large parts
of Northeastern North America long before European arrival, thrived
as allies and enemies of some of the world's most powerful empires,
and continue to live throughout the region today. Their innovative
political confederation is thought to be the oldest continuously
operating democracy in the Americas, and influenced the framers of
the United States constitution. This course begins with Haudenosaunee
founding narratives and early history, continues through the complex
relations with Dutch, French and British empires, and concludes with
in-depth discussions of nineteenth and twentieth-century colonial
realities. The year 2015 marks the 25th anniversary of the Oka Crisis,
which was one of many recent events that demonstrates the continuity
of Canadian colonial relations with Indigenous peoples. Drawing on
an international literature on Indigenous communities and settler
colonialism, this course places Haudenosaunee history in global
context. It includes the histories of communities on both sides of the
Canada-U.S. border, and covers diverse themes including warfare,
gender, migration, race, sexuality, art, language, spirituality,
environment, and law.

The Crusades in the Middle East: The Muslim Perspective
The Crusades continue to resound today as people as diverse as President
Dwight Eisenhower and Usama bin Laden have used the term. Offspring of
the medieval Crusades such as the Templars and Hospitallers still appear in
modern culture, and heroes such as Richard the Lion Heart and Salah al-Din
al-Ayyubi still ‘star’ in movies and books. Libraries are well stocked with
books on the Crusades, but very few of them make the effort to describe how
the Muslims reacted to the sudden onslaught. That perspective will be the
point of this course. It will seek to understand the Crusades in the context of
the Middle East. It will focus on not just the events themselves, but also on
how these events and their perpetrators were perceived by the indigenous
residents of the region. Why was the first Crusade so successful and later
efforts much less so? What was the impact of the Crusades on the Muslim
World? Once it was all over, who learned what from whom?

L’Époque viking (c. 800-1100) : Histoire et culture de l’expansion
scandinave médiévale
Qui étaient les « Vikings » ? Bien que le mot « Viking » soit chargé
de signification dans l'imagination populaire moderne, l'identité
culturelle des peuples que ce mot désigne, les peuples scandinaves
médiévaux, demeure généralement méconnue. Ce cours vise à
explorer les grandes lignes de cette identité culturelle, en parcourant
l'art, la langue, la littérature et la culture matérielle qui distinguaient
les scandinaves médiévaux et dans leurs pays d'origine (le Danemark,
la Suède et la Norvège actuels), et lors de leur expansion à travers
l'Europe (et même plus loin). Cette diaspora, que l'on désigne sous le
nom de l'Époque viking (c. 800-1100), est un phénomène historique et
culturel qui doit être étudié dans son contexte domestique (scandinave)
ainsi qu'à l'échelle européenne. Quoique les Vikings sont souvent
considérés comme un élément marginal et périphérique, détachés des
grands récits de l'histoire de l'Europe médiévale, ils ont en effet eu un
impact majeur dont les traces culturelles se font encore sentir
aujourd'hui.

Seminar in Canadian History
Museum Provenance Research
(3,0,0) 3 cr.
Provenance information (the documented origins and succession of
ownership of an artifact) has multiple uses in museums and beyond. By
tracing the history of an artifact from its creation to present, we build basic
cataloguing information, create meaningful connections to people, places,
events and activities, raise questions about authenticity, and confront ethical
and legal issues related to ownership. In Canada, provenance research is
central to the repatriation of sacred artifacts to first nations communities;
internationally, it is central to the return of stolen artifacts, (e.g. art and
artifacts looted by the Nazis during World War II). Above all, by
tenaciously following an artifact’s “life story,” provenance researchers
uncover surprising, alternative historical perspectives. In this seminar,
students explore a wide spectrum of provenance research and methods in
several disciplines and institutional contexts; we also look at related
activities such as supply-chain studies and the authentication industry. A
practical focus of the seminar involves original artifact research at the
Canada Science and Technology Museum and other national collections
throughout Ottawa. (C) Prerequisite: 81 university credits. Reserved for

Shaping Canada’s Identities
The focus of this seminar will be on the ways Canadians have collectively
defined themselves since Confederation. In 1867, architects of the new
union hoped the British North America Act would lay the foundation of a
new nationality. Since then, governments, intellectuals, and the general
public have sought ways to erect a durable political structure on that
foundation and to discern the characteristic traits of that nationality. From
Sir John A. Macdonald to Don Cherry, our attempts to shape a national
identity have been neither consistent nor comprehensive. This seminar will
trace these efforts and assess their successes and failures.(C)

Contemporary Jewish History in a comparative situation.
Using the specific cases of France, Germany, Imperial Russia and North
America, this class with examine the historical evolution of important
Jewish minorities subjected to very different political and cultural contexts
in the nineteenth and twentieth century. A specific attention will be given to
the political emancipation of Jews in the Western World, and to their active
contribution to their native country. Anti-Semitism and hostility to a Jewish
presence will also be studies in respect to these differences, leading to the
Holocaust in World War II. Part of the class will be spent looking at the
emergence of Zionism and the State of Israel, and to the reaction of
European Jews to these new developments.

Cultural History of Disease
This thematically-organized, cross-national, and cross-time period course
explores concepts of disease as they have shaped, and been shaped by, their
cultural contexts. Beginning with the challenges that historians face in trying
to assign labels to past diseases, we will touch upon many of the cultural
aspects of disease, including how diseases were explained and understood in
the past; links between texts, images or objects (artefacts), and diseases;
how diseases assume identities; the relationship between fear of strangers
and fear of disease; how diseases become ‘fashionable’ in particular places
and times; and the rise and fall of particular medical theories and practices.
There will be a focus on the analysis of primary sources.

Minorities and Priorities: Race and Immigration in Canada
Canada’s immigrant society has been described as a mosaic, a melting
pot, a salad bowl, as well as many negative metaphors. This course
will explore race relations and immigration in Canadian history from
the 19th century to the present. It will examine how immigrants
navigate and challenge, although not always successfully, shifting and
diverse physical, socioeconomic and political boundaries through such
themes as: anti-Semitism, the Japanese internment, post-Second War II
immigration, refugees, human rights, multiculturalism, ethnic militancy and
radicalism, communities and networks, and state responses to changing
definitions of 'race.'(C)

Medieval Material Culture: Reading Objects in Their Historical
Context
Material culture, or the form and characteristics of physical objects
and the techniques related to their production, is among the most
important expressions of cultural identity in any given social group.
The European Middle Ages are distinct in time as well as in cultural
and geographic space, in part thanks to its material culture. While
there is a great diversity and regional variation in the production of
material culture, certain broad aesthetic and especially technological
characteristics help define what is "medieval", from a material
perspective. Far from being solely the purview of archaeology, the
study of material culture is important for social history because
objects carry meaning. This course will not only touch on the
characteristics and evolution of medieval material culture, but will
also focus on various methodologies and debates surrounding the study
of material culture itself, and on objects in their historical
context. Archaeology, iconography, archival texts and even literary
texts will be explored as ways to access medieval material culture. (E)

“Colonizing” the Capital: “Arab” Paris from WWI to Today
This seminar explores the presence of North Africa in the French capital
from World War I until the present day. Using historical secondary texts as
well as maps, advertisements, photos, postcards, architectural plans, films
and other primary sources, this course considers the ways immigrants from
Morocco, Algeria and Tunisia, both Muslim and Jewish, have changed the
city’s urban landscape as well as how French architects and designers have
used North African styles in the capital. In examining the diverse ways in
which France’s former North African colonies have transformed Paris, this
course will address some of the central issues of modern and contemporary
French history: colonization and decolonization; the challenge to secular
republicanism produced by racial and religious others; and the integration
of immigrants. This course, through its focus on the city of Paris, will also
engage the problem of the relationship between the built environment and
the social practices that both reflect and construct it. Students will explore
the complex intersections of race and religion in the French imagination
historically and in the contemporary moment. Attention will be paid to
continuities and ruptures between the colonial and postcolonial periods. (E)

La France à l’époque de Louis XIV
Louis XIV (1638-1643-1715) a vécu 77 ans et a régné sur la France pendant
les 72 dernières années de sa vie. Ce très long règne a été marqué par de
nombreux événements et a vu la France se transformer en profondeur. Les
sujets abordés lors du séminaire porteront peu sur Louis XIV lui-même,
mais exploreront surtout les transformations politiques, juridiques,
économiques religieuses, sociales et culturelles de son époque. L’objectif
sera de mieux comprendre quels acteurs historiques ont eu un rôle clé dans
ces processus de transformation et comment le souverain lui-même a pu
influencer le changement. (E)
