Synopsis:

This course is required for all incoming graduate students.   It seeks to introduce students to the varieties of history and as far as possible, the range of research and graduate teaching interests of faculty in the UMass/Five College Graduate Program in History. Through the study of scholarly monographs and serious popularizations, we will explore the different modes of doing history in the contemporary academy and the advantages and limits of competing ways of approaching the past.   A preliminary reading list will be sent to all incoming students over the summer.
