HI 430
Sem Canada in 20th Century
Seminar investigations on topics of historical importance in the recent history of Canada. {C}
History 430 is intended to offer advanced study of selected topics in the history of Canada in the 20th century. In this seminar-style course, we will explore a wide range of themes relating to this history --among them the construction of racial and sexual identities, the nature of historical memory, the changing role of the state, Indigenous-Settler relations, and the uses of alternative approaches to history. The course is designed to allow students to develop an advanced awareness of the varied ways in which historians interpret evidence, construct arguments, and represent the past. Students are encouraged to collaboratively and independently hone their skills in the areas of critical reading, discussion and defense of ideas, conducting historiographical surveys, and group presentations.
Exclusions: HI480* taken prior to May 1, 2010.
Notes: 1.0 credit, one-term historiographical course.
