While the world is all too familiar with images of ISIS using explosives and frills to destroy ancient sites and artifacts in Iraq and Syria, there has been little attention given to the dynamic role of art within past and present Islamic societies. Yet, Islam has a rich and vibrant artistic tradition, one in which ancient civilizations played and continue to play a major role. This course introduces students to Islamic art and cultural heritage through a study of Islam?s engagement with past artistic traditions in the fields of architecture and the fine arts. It also addresses how the recent actions of ISIS have changed questions about cultural heritage and stewardship in the Middle East and the West. Finally, the course asks students what they can and should do to preserve cultural heritage.

Do animals have histories? Despite a few rare exceptions of trained pigs, dogs, monkeys, and elephants, animals have left us no written sources to study. Nevertheless, the relationships between humans and other species of animals have changed dramatically over time. Humans have shaped animal lives to serve many purposes; at the same time, animals have served as agents of change in human history. Drawing on recent scholarship in environmental history, economic history, social history, military history, and cultural history, this course will focus on the history of animals as pests, pets, producers, and products. We will study the economic relationships between humans and animals from the ancient past to the present day. Course meets History major requirement for Group I. Attributes: HP

HIST 498: Global History of Childhood and Youth

Spring 2023

Tues/Thurs 2:10--3:30

Prof. Julia E. Rodriguez

Fulfills Discovery category Historical Perspectives!

Childhood is commonly assumed to be “natural” and unchanging. Yet historical studies have shown us that the meaning and experience of childhood, adolescence, and young adulthood are constructed daily, and differently, around the world. This course explores the diverse experiences of children and youth in a variety of geographic and historical settings, including their interaction with family, community, religion, schools, government, the military, and medical and legal professionals. We explore the philosophical and legal debates over children’s capacities and rights, and learn about the many ways that children and youth have contributed to culture, politics, and social change.

If you have questions, please contact Prof. Rodriguez at juliar@unh.edu
