HIST 367 - Colonial North America

Institution:

Catholic University of America

Subject:

History

Description:

The coming together of Europeans, native peoples, and Africans in colonial North America produced new societies, new cultures, even new peoples; and laid the foundations for the society we live in today. This course begins with the dynamics that brought these peoples together in the sixteenth century, and focuses on the development of English colonies in the seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries to explore how their interactions created new worlds. We will explore such themes as the responses of Indian groups to European traders, settlers, and missionaries; the development of slavery and African-American cultures; the emergence of distinctive colonial societies along the Atlantic seaboard; and continuing rivalries among European empires.
