WiSe 16/17: Introduction to History as a Discipline
Joseph Prestel
Kommentar
This course offers an introduction to history as an academic discipline. It is especially geared towards students of the MA in Global History who come from a background in area studies or hold a first degree from any field other than history. The course provides the basic tools for non-historians to understand the state of the field before the recent surge in 'global history.' Most of the course will be structured chronologically, providing a survey of the history of historiography that focuses chiefly on the twentieth century. We will grant particular attention to the rise of social history in the 1960s and the subsequent 'cultural turn,' which both swept through much of Europe and the U.S. At the same time, the course familiarizes students with some of history’s cornerstone heuristic instruments. We will thus deal with the distinction between primary and secondary sources, the framing of history-specific research questions, and the writing of papers in history. Schließen
