Institution:

Washington University in St Louis

Subject:

Description:

This course studies the contrasting patterns of colonization in the New World, as this hemisphere was once termed by Europeans. Traditionally, such comparative studies have focused on the cultural differences among the European colonizers-the English, the French, the Spanish, and so on. As the different groups confronted and dealt with each other in the 16th and 17th centuries, they established widely varying patterns of living that would impact the histories of their descendents for generations to come.
