HIST 9.01 The Americas from Invasion to Independence

The course explores the history of the Americas as space of conflict, colonialism, and political and economic change over three centuries from the arrival of Europeans to the revolutions that separated new American nations from European control. Using a thematic approach, the course will compare areas of the hemisphere and rival European imperial projects, while also identifying critical connections and interdependencies across the Americas. Students will be introduced to key questions in early American history and also to the analysis of primary and secondary sources through lectures and small discussion groups.
