CREDIT HOURS: 3
Aspects of daily life are often assumed to be “outside” of History, either unchanging or altered simply by natural forces of progress. This course will challenge such assumptions and look at the historically contingent practices surrounding such things as death, manners, sport, festivity, medicine, and education as experienced in early modern England. The course will address how and why such daily practices change, and the effects of such changes on the larger society.
FORMAT: Seminar
PREREQUISITES: One previous history course
