HIS 382-01 - Advanced Tutorial: Modern Classics of Historical Writing

4 credits (Spring)

This course surveys of some great works of historical scholarship. It will be useful to students who are considering graduate studies, but it is intended for all students who would like to improve their ability to write analytically and argue persuasively. The course will be taught in Oxford tutorial style, in small group meetings with the instructor, and will involve frequent short writing assignments. It will also serve as useful preparation to all advanced seminars in history. Note: this course does not satisfy research seminar requirement.
