HIS 330-01: French History and Historical Memory
How the history is created in France and how historical memory
functions in present-day Paris is the theoretical focus of this
course. It's clear that individuals chose to write about some
things rather than others and governments keep only a portion of
the documents produced. But when individuals select or conserve
particular documents, they make a statement about how they see
themselves, their country, and their present. In this course on
French history, students will explore issues relevant to the
field of historical memory. Course reading topics will include
the creation of the city of Paris, the Louvre, café culture, and
France's military history. To augment course readings, students
will travel to Paris to examine historical "sites" of memory.
These include: WW II and Holocaust memorials in Paris; the
Château of Versailles; the Louvre museum; the Musée D'Orsay,
Napoleon's Tomb; Notre Dame de Paris, and still others.
Paris remains the #1 tourist destination in the world. However,
this is not a tourist excursion. The workload requires extensive
reading and classroom participation, several short papers, and a
brief research paper. On site, students will participate in daily
class meetings and events. Participants may be asked to blog
about their experiences while abroad. Upon their return to the
United States, students will present final observations during a
poster session open to the public. Some history background is
preferred but not required. Pre-approval to register for the
course is required.
