History 3531 - Early-Modern England

Institution:

Washington University in St Louis

Subject:

Description:

Around 1500, England was an overwhelmingly agrarian society dominated by crown and aristocracy; by 1700, political power had been redistributed by revolution while commercialization, "science" and empire-building were well under way. Through lecture and discussion, and through readings in a variety of autobiographical and other writings, including some of the great works of literature, we examine how contemporaries sought to shape, or to come to terms with, their world.
