Concern was expressed for possible gap in time period and context under new course description.  Specifically, if there is no longer any 18th century portion to this course (as is indicated in the title and description change as well as the texts and weekly plan). Is this material covered elsewhere?  The committee saw this background as crucial prelude to later information (i.e. the impact of Napoleonic era, enlightened despotism, and other historical and cultural catalysts to the rise of Nationalism in the 19th century.  Some were also concerned that the focus seems to have drifted away from Polish and Balkan history, which may not be a problem if it is covered elsewhere.

 

 

 

 

At the meeting, we looked at the course descriptions for the European Hist 512 series and thought that this series or parts of it might address this gap but that was not reflected in the 519.01 proposal so they did not want to assume that it was.  The committee requested a rationale for removing earlier time period and/or further explanation of how this material will be covered in the new iteration of this course.  Also, there was a suggestion to include “recommended pre-req(s)” that could fill this gap if applicable. (I know that History does not have pre-reqs for their courses, so it would be recommended)

 

 

 

 

syllabus:



There seems to be a typo under rationale section of the syllabus – should “519.03” read “519.02”?
