Empire, to the 20th century decolonization of its African and Asian
territories, to 21st century postcolonial realities. We will explore not only

the lives of the peoples who became imperial subjects. Some of the
themes we will discuss in this course include the role of the social and
natural sciences in the imperial project; the political, social and economic

costs and benefits of colonial expansion; the creation of hybrid colonial
cultures; the wars of decolonization; and the legacies of colonialism.

MEDICINE AND MODERNITY IN AMERICA
HIS3150 A
(3,0,0) 3 cr.
“Everyone who is born holds dual citizenship, in the kingdom of the well and in the
kingdom of the sick. Although we all prefer to use only the good passport, sooner
or later each of us is obliged, at least for a spell, to identify ourselves as citizens of
that other place.” Susan Sontag, Illness as Metaphor
This lecture/seminar course will offer you a cultural, intellectual, and
social history of American medicine from the eighteenth century through
7
today with an emphasis on the twentieth century. We will focus on the
relationship between science, medicine, and philosophy over time,
especially regarding both animal and human experimentation; the
interconnections between medicine and culture historically; the
relationship between doctor and patient amidst increasing
professionalization and demands for empathy in caring; the development
of American therapeutic cultures, especially the history of psychiatry;
institutional frameworks of American medicine, especially the rise of the
hospital; as well as, of course, the experiences and representations of
illness, death, diseases, insanity, suffering and curing over time. The
readings will combine cultural and intellectual history with some
theoretical works, along with medical primary sources. I hope that you
will emerge from this course feeling theoretically conversant with the
medical humanities, and with greater methodological tools to approach the
history of medicine, from material culture to case notes to patient
testimonies and culture.

History
THE STUFF THAT MADE CANADA
This course examines the commodities that shaped Canadian history -- the
"stuff", so to speak, that made Canada. From the silks and spices that
explorers sought in vain past this land; to the cod, fur, lumber, and wheat
that for centuries served as economic staples; to sugar, on which rested the
balance of empire, and even to ginseng, whose peculiar place in our
history has largely been forgotten. Patterns of production, transformation,
circulation, and consumption have long bound together Europe, Africa,
Asia, and the Americas. These materials and patterns, and the peoples they
touched, lend themselves particularly well to a historically-grounded
interdisciplinary analysis.

THE ENGLISH EAST INDIA COMPANY
This course is designed to survey the emergence, expansion and eclipse of
the English East India Company. As such, the lectures cover in detail the
period from 1600 until the later 1850s and consider the crucial role the
East India Company played in Britain’s rise from a minor European state
9
to a global imperial power. The Company story offers a means of
examining the connections between proto-industrious and industrial
worlds, and the movement of peoples and products that characterized the
whole dynamic of British expansionism. Thus, the East India Company’s
history casts light upon the political, social, cultural, military and
mercantile nature of the ‘British’ state and empire in this period and those
themes too are considered in this course.

scène mondiale au début du 20e siècle, et qui ont marqué ses grandes
orientations (neutralisme, isolationnisme, exceptionnalisme, paternalisme,
messianisme, impérialisme, hégémonisme). Ce cours implique deux
travaux (analyses de sources primaires) et un examen final. Ce cours est

CANADA’S RIGHTS REVOLUTION
Contemporary Canadians take their Constitutional Rights and Freedom for
granted. This seminar will analyze the origins, the framing and the
entrenchment of Canada’s world-renowned Canadian Charter of Rights
and Freedoms in the Constitution Act, 1982. The Charter is now a central
element, alongside democracy, the rule of law, and federalism, to
Canada’s Constitution. What role did British-Canadian political & civil
liberties organizations and the United Nation’s Charter of Rights
instruments play in the development of Canada’s Rights and Freedoms?
Who were the array of proponents and critics of an entrenched Charter of
Rights? What was the nature and scope of their arguments and how and
why did the Charter’s advocates win the day? What role did the Charter
Canadian organizations and the Supreme Court of Canada play in the
implementation of the Charter?

COMPARATIVE HISTORIES 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, the seminar will touch upon
many of the cultural aspects of disease, including how diseases were
explained and understood in the past; 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, including texts, images, and objects.

A SOCIAL AND CULTURAL HISTORY OF ROCK & ROLL
This seminar explores historical problems since the 1950s using rock’n
roll and its various subgenres (e.g., metal, punk, rap) as method and
setting. Among the topics explored are dissent and protest, popular
cultural consumption, production and distribution of cultural texts, art and
capitalism, and racial and sexual identity construction and expression. This
course is not dedicated to the history of rock & roll per se, but rather how
popular music has emerged as a ubiquitous means of expression in the
second half of the twentieth century, and one that can be used to
understand the historical circumstances from which it was created,
distributed, and consumed.

CANADIAN HISTORY, DECOLONIZATION AND RECONCILIATION
As a point of departure, this course will examine the complex history of
Indigenous education during the colonial era, through the nineteenth and
twentieth centuries. It will also explore legislation, treaties and practices
like The Pass system that contributed to the ongoing colonization of
Indigenous peoples in Canada. Students will also critically evaluate the

themes and developments related to Britain's expansive Empire and
consider the nature of global integration, from early exploration and first
contacts to decolonization and the creation of organizations such as the
Commonwealth of Nations. The many and varied experiences of empire
have undoubtedly left behind lasting and complicated legacies around the
world and laid the foundations for contemporary globalization.

SPATIAL HISTORY AND GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEMS
GIS (Geographic Information Systems) is a tool to collect, store, and
analyse spatial data. A growing number of historians are using applying
GIS to historical datasets (such as property records, diaries, and census
data) and thus transforming them into different and useful forms of
knowledge. This laboratory-style class introduces students to the fields of
spatial history, critical cartography, historical geography, and
environmental history through the use of GIS and ArcGIS software. The
course is made up of two primary components: 1) a critical component, in
which students engage with key works and ideas; and 2) a practical
component in which students work with a historical dataset to create new
15
cartographical visualizations. Students will emerge from the course with a
good understanding of the field of spatial history, as well as basic GIS
skills.

RADICALISM, TERRORISM AND STATE SURVEILLANCE IN CANADIAN HISTORY
The term “radicalism” is not a contemporary one. Students will be
encouraged to think critically about its use by analyzing primary sources
that emphasize the diversity of radicalism and its influences, and the wide
variety of radical approaches to politics and society. Students will learn
how anonymous citizens, intellectuals, students, community activists,
labour unions, popular movements, feminists and various political
organizations sought to change social and political structures in Canada
and elsewhere.

twentieth century society, the continental environment in which popular
culture has developed. Students will examine the dominant national
historiography in both countries while also exploring the emerging

For the upcoming Quincentenary of the Protestant Reformation, Playmobil
created a Martin Luther figure, 34,000 of these “Little Luthers” selling
within 72 hours to become Playmobil’s most popular figure ever. Why
has this little toy been so successful? And what are Germans trying to
capture by purchasing it? Taking this episode as a starting point, this
course will explore the manner in which Europe’s past has been prepared
by and cultivated for numerous audiences in the modern period and the
messages – as well as the implications – of such formulations.

CULTURE ET SOCIÉTÉ SOVIÉTIQUE SOUS STALINE 1924-1953
Ce séminaire examinera les efforts du gouvernement bolchevique à bâtir
une société et une culture entièrement nouvelle à l’époque stalinienne.
Nous aborderons les grandes questions de l’histoire de la dictature
stalinienne. Par exemple : comment c'est soldé l'effort de transformer la
culture? comment expliquer l’ampleur de la répression ? pourquoi et
comment les autorités ont-ils transformé le système économique et quel
impacte cela a eu sur les citoyens ? quel impacte a eu la deuxième guerre
mondiale sur la société ? Nous nous pencherons - surtout à partir de
sources, telles que des mémoires, lettres, rapports de police, pamphlets,
etc. - sur les problèmes d’application de la politique gouvernementale et
des résistances dans divers domaines (par exemple: la famille, l’art,
l’industrialisation, la politique envers les minorités nationales, etc.).

THINKING AMERICAN: AMERICAN THOUGHT AND CULTURE BEFORE 1865
The use and abuse of American history are always prevalent during an
election year, including claims about how the founding fathers would have
behaved, about a new era of Jacksonian populism, about the decline of the
American Empire, and perennial claims about the American character as
HIS3150 C
25
superficial, materialistic, racist and crass. Spanning the colonial era
through the Civil War, this lecture/seminar class will, I hope, complicate
these assertions by offering you a survey of pre-modern American ideas
and culture. Topics to be studied include the concepts of the Atlantic
World/contact zones, Puritanism, the Enlightenment, evangelicalism,
slavery and other captivity narratives (especially of indigenous
Americans), abolitionism, music, photography, painting, fiction/poetry,
and material culture. We will pay particular attention to religious history,
including concepts of grace, resignation, religious revivals, and the
tensions between church and state, faith and reason; the formation of the
polity, including revolution, constitutionalism, republicanism, citizenship,
and populism; the arts, especially visual, literary and philosophical sources
of the American Gothic movement, romanticism, and transcendentalism;
world perceptions of Americans and American perceptions of the world;
and history and memory, especially the memory of the founders, slavery,
and the Civil War. We will consult an array of primary sources including
political speeches, government documents, philosophical and religious
treatises, legal cases, drawings and photographs, fictional accounts,
personal narratives, advertisements, periodicals, newspapers, and
pamphlet culture, many of which have been digitized.

HONOR, SEXUALITY AND CRIME IN LATIN AMERICA (17TH TO 19TH
CENTURIES)
Colonial Latin America society was extremely hierarchical and based on
the colour-class domination of the Indians, the slaves of African descent
and other racial groups known as the mestizos or “mixed blood”. In this
society, every individual had to negotiate his or her place in the complex
social hierarchy. For instance, men and women of all walks of life used
arguments such as honor, good reputation of the family, education,
“vergüenza” (shame), quality of birth and/or purity of race to justify their
worth. This course surveys the transformation of the concepts of honor in
different regions of Latin America between the 17th and the 19th century
while touching on important themes such as gender, sexuality, Indian
identity, slavery and the impact of the Wars of Independence on this
concept.

DIGITAL HISTORY IN CANADA: SKILLS, TOOLS AND RESEARCH
How does learning history change when using digital tools to support
research and writing? What happens when the study of the past is
presented in the digital realm? The possibilities for students to approach
history in a diversity of ways is exciting when millions of significant
primary and secondary source texts, photographs, videos, audio sources,
artefacts, maps, and much more have been made available online via
academic and public realms. This course will introduce students to skills
that include critically evaluating history research digitally enhanced and
considering how to leverage technology to enable their research using a
diversity of methods and tools introduced in this course. Students will be
introduced to a range of works on evaluating, interpreting and creating
history using digital tools. Beyond course readings they will also critically
engage a range of digital tools like Zotero, Omeka, JS Timeline,
Storymaps and Voyant among others and learn how to construct, post,
maintain and implement new media in their course work.

BRITISH COLUMBIA
IN
Canadians often think of British Columbia as a periphery, both of their
own country and even of western civilization; the novelist Jack Hodgins
once described the province as "the rainy green edge of the world."
Throughout its history, however, British Columbia has also been a
crossroads, where people and ideas from different parts of the world have
come together, for better or for worse. This course presents the province's
history as a series of such encounters. It invites students to discover British
Columbia as an Indigenous homeland, an outpost of the British Empire, an
extension of the American West, a Canadian province, a region of
temperate rain forests and high mountains, and an integral part of the
Pacific World. Through weekly readings and seminar discussions,
presentations, and a major research project, students will consider how
these multiple, overlapping contexts have contributed to British
Columbia's distinctive history and character. Topics will include
Indigenous-newcomer relations, the gold rushes, immigration from Asia,
relations with the rest of Canada, the peculiarities of BC politics, and the
role of the environment in shaping the province's society, economy and
culture.

PEWTER DISHES, CHAMBER POTS AND WASHING MACHINES. CANADA’S MANY
“CONSUMER REVOLUTIONS”.
Post-industrial economies are driven by consumption, and Canada is no
exception. Built-in obsolescence insures that we constantly want new
consumer goods, and we take their diversity and availability of for
granted. This, of course, has not always been the case. Our relationship
with the “world of goods” has significantly changed over the centuries,
and historians of consumption have even identified several “consumer
revolutions” which have occurred since the seventeenth century. In this
seminar, we will try to find out whether there were such “consumer
revolutions” in Canada, and how typical or not they were?
In particular, we will address the following questions:
 Who purchased what, when and where? How did this change
32

over time? What do consumption patterns tell us about the
meanin(g) people gave to goods? What this shaped by gender,
age, occupation, class, race/ethnicity, migrant status, religion or
place of residence?
What goods were distributed where, when and how? How fast did
new ones appear on various markets and how quickly were they
adopted?
How did consumption reshape the geography of towns and cities?

OBSERVATION AS HISTORY
In the late twentieth century, intellectuals have freighted the act of
observation with a host of undesirable qualities, from voyeurism (Leela
Gandhi, Susan Sontag), to surveillance (Michel Foucault), to exoticization
(Edward Said), to “slumming” (Scott Herring, Chad Heap), to
“scopophilia” (Laura Mulvey). Historians of science and medicine,
however, of late have challenged this characterization, insisting that
observation can be a mode of empathy (Elizabeth Lunbeck, Lorraine
Daston). This course seeks to unite these standpoints by exploring how the
act of looking has been taken up by intellectuals and historians across
vastly different regions, eras, and disciplines, especially focusing on
theorists and historiography of colonialism, race, sexuality, disability, and
science and medicine. We will analyse primary sources such as the
colonial museum, photography and documentary film, travel literature,
anthropological accounts, material culture, queer neighbourhoods and
performances, freakery, medical spectacles, doctors’ notes and reports,
and trauma cultures (especially the internet). This course aims to sharpen
your theoretical acumen, hone your visual literacy, and appreciate and
engage with trans-disciplinary historiography.

TOUCHSTONES IN THE MAKING OF MODERN AMERICA
This course looks at America, both the America of fact and the America of
imagined identity. At the turn of the 21st century, the dominant influence
of the United States in global affairs is undeniable. And yet, very few
33
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 and
their country’s place in it. This course will look at how these forces played
themselves out in the United States over the course of the 20th century.

Far from being outdated or from a time long far gone, one can argue that
myths are enduring entities, if not updated, that still play a part in our
societies, even in the digital age. This seminar explores the production and
reproduction of myths in Canada, from newspapers to social media. It
focuses on the history of myths, from its origins to its transformations over
time, be it in oral, written, graphic or digital forms. While doing so,
students will get to work with discourses, testimonials, newspapers,
articles, books, caricatures, graphic novels, movies, clips, websites and

This course explores the growth and development of the radio and

century. From the birth of commercial radio in the 1920s to the televised
collapse of the Berlin Wall, radio and television shaped the way many
Americans interacted with and understood their country. These media
changed the way people communicated and, as a result, fundamentally
altered American politics, economics, and social movements. Students will
examine these industries as both businesses and agents of change in an
effort to understand how media has come to hold such an influential place
in American life.

FROM
This seminar examines the history of French North America, from the
arrival of the French in the 16th century to the political struggles of the
20th century. However, it will differ from traditional courses/seminars. It
will consider ten moments that forever changed French North America;
ten key episodes that may have seemed rather innocuous the instance they
took place, but in retrospect changed everything. As such, students will be
deconstructing major historical events to their most minute (to a certain
extent, of course) origin. Students will examine how these moments came

to be and how they had important consequences on the history of French
North America.

examine social networking from numerous perspectives, including those
of lordship and vassalage, credit and business, parish communities, the
circulation of manuscripts and translations, connections formed through
libraries, between artists, illuminators and printers, and the particular
importance of links formed through marriage and oath-taking at all levels
of medieval society. Students will use both secondary and primary

BORDERS, MOBILITY, AND IDENTITIES IN EUROPE
The history of European integration is about borders—physical borders
and “borders of the mind”. The integration project aimed to eliminate
national frontier borders; extend and protect Europe’s outer frontiers; and
remake borders of language, culture, and community. The goal ws to
construct a European space, foster mobility within that space, and create a
shared identity for this new, larger territory and its emerging system of
governance. This seminar will focus on a range of issues associated with
borders, mobility, and identity in the European Union, including

LA FRANÇAFRIQUE À TRAVERS LES SOURCES
Tout en se servant d’une variété de sources (écrits politiques et culturels,
pamphlets, romans, films, bandes dessinées, photos), la problématique de
ce cours tourne autour de la domination culturelle, économique, juridique
et politique des états de l’Afrique francophone par la France, puissance
colonisatrice d’autrefois. Les étudiants travailleront en équipe pour
interroger la construction et l’héritage de la « Françafrique » depuis la
« décolonisation » des années 50s à nos jours.

TRUANDS, TERRORISTES ET TRAFIQUANTS: LA CRIMINALITÉ EN MILIEU
COLONIAL, LE CAS DE L’INDOCHINE FRANÇAISE.
Ce cours se veut une étude des réseaux à la fois licites et criminels
engendrés par la présence coloniale en Indochine française. Au cours du
semestre nous analyserons les définitions de la criminalité et du
« criminel » tout en élucidant l’impact de l’imposition des lois françaises
dans la colonie et de la loi par décret dans les protectorats de l’Indochine.
Nous nous pencherons aussi sur les questions suivantes : la criminalisation
du politique et du social; les représentations des sujets indochinois; la
criminalité du projet impérial français; et, la réglementation des activités
coloniales et « indigènes ».

LA FRANCE « ARABE » D’UNE RÉVOLUTION AUX AUTRES
Nous explorerons la présence de « l’Arabe » dans la France métropolitaine
du 19ème siècle jusqu’au présent. A travers de textes historiographiques,
de récits, de cartes, de publicités, de plans architecturaux, de films ainsi
que d’autres sources, ce cours examinera comment les immigrés du
Maroc, de l’Algérie et de la Tunisie, Musulmans et Juifs, ont changé la
société française. En examinant les façons diverses et variées par
lesquelles les colonies maghrébines et leurs immigrés ont transformé la
France, ce cours prend en compte les thèmes centraux de l’histoire
française du 20ème siècle : la colonisation et la décolonisation, le défi
lancé au républicanisme laïc par la diversité raciale et religieuse et
l’intégration des immigrés. Nous explorerons les intersections complexes
de race et religion dans l’imaginaire français, historiquement et
actuellement. Nous regarderons également les continuités et les ruptures
entre les périodes coloniales et postcoloniales.

VILLES ET DYNAMIQUES URBAINES EN EUROPE OCCIDENTALE (XVIE-XVIIIE
SIÈCLES)
Ce cours porte sur l’histoire urbaine de l’Europe occidentale entre le XVIe
et le XVIIIe siècle. Les étudiants seront initiés aux concepts de base que
les historiens ont élaborés (acteurs, espaces, identité, etc.) afin de saisir les
villes européennes dans toute leur complexité. En contre-pieds d’une
historiographie traditionnelle qui les présentait comme statiques et figées
dans le temps, ce cours propose d’aborder les villes comme des entités à la
fois uniques et complexes émanant de plusieurs dynamiques
concomitantes qui pouvaient évoluer et se transformer dans le temps.
Notre regard se portera tour à tour sur les dimensions sociales, politiques
et religieuses qui rythmaient le quotidien des citadins, ainsi que sur des
processus urbains d’exception tels que la construction d’une ville nouvelle
destinée à satisfaire les intérêts de la monarchie française (Versailles) et la
dynamique insurrectionnelle urbaine qui bouleversa le destin d’un
royaume (la Révolution française de 1789).
