HISTORY 264 - Modern European City

Institution:

Hobart William Smith Colleges

Subject:

Description:

This course examines the emergence and development of new industrial cities, such as Manchester and Bochum, and the transformation of older administrative and cultural centers such as Paris and Vienna. The course emphasizes the ways in which contrasting visions of the city-source of crime and pathology or fount of economic dynamism and democratic sociability-were expressed and embodied in city planning, reform movements, and the arts. In exploring the modern city, students use perspectives derived from European and American social and political thought and employ literary, statistical, and visual source materials.
