Objectives:       Historiography is, in its literal sense, writing about history.  Scholars have used the term variously to mean the philosophy of history that informs the historian and the history of historical writing.  Undergraduate students often view historiography as an obstacle, a tedious examination of books and arguments that interferes with their pursuit of true history (facts).  One objective of this course is to help you, the graduate student, understand that historiography is central to the discipline of history itself.  In fact, it defines history and sets the context for historical scholarship.

 

                        Historiography is much too broad and diverse to attempt even the most superficial survey, so the aims of this course will be more pragmatic.  We will grapple with definitional questions (what is history?) to allow you to reach a more sophisticated understanding of what history will mean for you.  We will examine the uses of history in the past in order for you to discover how history relates to broader cultural issues.  We will discuss schools of interpretation so that you may ground your own work more effectively and build upon the advances of other scholars.  We will examine classic or seminal texts to understand how historians have created history.  Finally, we will discover ways to maneuver in a complex and confusing field, with the ultimate goal of developing a historiographical essay on a research subject that interests you.

 

 

 

 

 

Policies:            1.  H500 is a graduate course, which means that class meetings will consist of discussions and, on occasion, presentations.  You must attend each class, complete the assigned readings ahead of time, and be prepared to contribute to the discussion. 

 

                        2.  Each week one or more of you will have primary responsibility for introducing and leading discussion on assigned readings, following a format I will introduce in class. 

 

                        3.  No later than each Tuesday at 5:00 p.m. or until I suspend this requirement, you will submit at least five questions prompted by the week’s assigned reading to the classmate(s) who are responsible for leading the week’s discussion.  The class leader(s) will prepare a handout of these questions, edited for redundancy and clarity, for class discussion.

 

                        4.  You will write three review essays, a research paper, and a final, take-home exam during the semester, as assigned.  Use Chicago Manual of Style for questions of grammar, style, and other editorial standards.  

 

                        5.  All materials to be turned in for this class must be type-written or printed on letter-size paper, in a 12 pt. font, double-spaced, and with one-inch margins.  Do not include a separate title page.  Number all pages and staple them together.  Do not place in a binder or use a paper clip.

 

                        6.  Any instance of plagiarism will result in a loss of grade and referral of the incident to appropriate university officials.  For a fuller explanation of plagiarism and university remedies, consult the Indiana University Bulletin, School of Liberal Arts, Indianapolis Campus, 2000-2002, p.36.

 

                        7.  Do not hesitate to contact me or to schedule an appointment if you have any problem in this course. 

 

                        8.  Failure to observe any of these requirements and/or failure to turn in materials by the assigned date may result in loss of grade.
