HIS 295-03 - Special Topic: Modern Japan4 credits (Spring) We can think of modern Japan as beginning with the overthrow of the last shogunate government and the ascendancy of the Meiji emperor in 1868. Using primary sources, films, and selections from books, we will consider Japan’s modern history not only from those at the pinnacle of society but also from the perspective of the many classes of people who were simply being swept along by the tremendous changes of the 19th and 20th centuries.
Prerequisite: HIS 100 or second-year standing Instructor: J. Smith
