Courses

This course introduces graduate students to advanced scholarship in early American history, focusing on the historical development of North America c. 1607-1850 CE. While the course will take recent monographs as its starting point, students will also put these new books in conversation with older works of historical scholarship, developing their understanding of important issues and ongoing debates in the field. Graduate students working in related fields (e.g., Atlantic history, early American literature, early modern history) are welcome to join.
