Production of History

 

People make history, but they also talk, imagine, and fight over memory. This course examines how history and memory circulate through public life in modern societies, how and why the past matters to individuals, groups and institutions. Among the topics we will examine are the relationship between scholarly historians and their publics, historical fiction, genealogy, collecting and memorabilia, debates over textbooks and school curricula, and the practices of amateur history and re-enactment.
