| Description: | Cross List: HIS-230-01=GEN-230. In this course, students will study issues related to gender and sexuality in modern European history, 1750-present. Students will examine how historians use gender as a category of analysis to understand interpretations of sex and bodily health, scientific developments, labor practices, political systems, and culture more generally. Rather than moving in a strictly chronological fashion our course readings will be topical and chronological. The class includes readings on masculinity and warfare (WWI and the Nazi period); medical treatments for venereal diseases; sex and sexuality in the 19th century city; fears surrounding masturbation; regulation of prostitution; and historical interpretations of men's and women's social roles. Most of the course content focuses on the history of gender and sexuality in Britain, France, and Germany. There will be two exams and several short papers over course readings. This course will satisfy the Diversity Requirement for the PPE major. |
