HIST 22904 /32904: Arendt:Texts on Jewishness,Palestine,and Israel
3.00 Credits
University of Chicago
PQ: Advanced standing. Never an easy task, debating Hannah Arendt is particularly difficult when it comes to her "Jewish writings." Although sometimes she is outright wrong, some of her philosophically or historically more challenged expositions (e.g., Eichmann in Jerusalem) turn out to contain brilliant insights. This course reads and discusses as many o f Arendt ? texts as possible. Inasmuch as anti-Semitism is part of this complex, we also discuss anti-Semitism, but our focus is on Jews and Jewishness in the Diaspora, in Palestine, and in Israe l. M. Geyer, P. Mendes Flohr.

HIST 23408 /33408: Proto-Globalization:Empire,Science,and Environment
3.00 Credits
University of Chicago
This course investigates the beginnings of the modern global economy by analyzing the environmental basis of Western expansion from 1492 to 1800. The power and wealth of early modern empires rested on the massive reordering of the natural world. We track this process in multiple and interconnected dimensions: ecological, social, scientific, and political. In terms of geographic scope, we look at a series of concrete case studies in colonization, from medieval Iceland to seventeenth-century Barbados and eighteenth-century Lapland, Mauritius, and New South Wales. Readings include a variety of primary sources as well as such scholarly classics of the field as Alfred Crosby's Ecological Imperialism and Richard Grove' s Green Imperialism. F. Albritton Jonsson. Autumn.
