HIST 3602 From Witchcraft to K-Pop Crossover: A Cultural History of North America (also AMST 3602) (ALC-AS, HST-AS) (HNA)
Tuesday and Thursday: 11:40-12:55
Dr. Justin Clark
This course examines the history of culture in North America from the pre-contact era to present. We will examine how Native, African, European, Asian, and Latino/a influences, along with colonization, immigration, urbanization, industrialization, and consumerization, reshaped the development of American culture, including its architecture, literature, music, visual art, and practices of religion, leisure, and consumption. We will also gain a basic familiarity with the theory and methods of cultural history. Intended for upper-division undergraduate students, the course provides practice in the analysis of historical sources, historiography, and written and oral expression.
