HIST 472 - Colloquium: Early Modern Atlantic World


Semester Offered: Second Semester
Full Course
Credits: 4 credits
Attribute: 4SS, CD, COLQ, WADV

In the early modern era, the Atlantic Ocean functioned as an extensive superhighway connecting, rather than seperating, the disparate cultures and societies around its basin. In this seminar we will hoist our sails and explore the historiographical currents and winds of this world. When we call at port at the end of the semester, we will have encountered the Atlantic World’s most defining phenomenon: piracy, slavery, cross-cultural discovery, commodification and trade.
Enrollment Limit: 12
Instructor: M. Bahar
