HIST 28501 - The Historiography of Asian American Studies

Institution:

University of Chicago

Subject:

Description:

This course is designed to be both an introduction to the field and an opportunity to examine the forty-year history of scholarship in Asian American studies and its future direction. We familiarize ourselves with some of the classic texts in Asian American studies (including documentary films), identifying various approaches and debates, while also carefully considering historical contexts in which the works were produced. Readings alternate between historical narrative and theoretical works meant to provide the tools with which to think about how historical narratives are constructed. T. Mah. Spring.
