ST: Landscape and Memory

This seminar explores the relationship between historical consciousness and environmental perception, or "sense of history" and "sense of place." Among the topics we will consider are how individuals and groups identify with particular environments; represent those environments in words and pictures; and transform those environments through the creation of monuments and memorials, historic preservation, and heritage tourism.

ST-Imperial America:1848-Now

This graduate reading seminar explores the expansion and assertion of American imperial power from the US-Mexican War to the "global war on terror." Students will be introduced to the widest possible conception of US "foreign relations" by evaluating the cultural, economic, political, and strategic factors that shaped American policy and by analyzing the lived experience of empire building and anti-imperial resistance at home and abroad.
