Course Overview |
This course will examine Japan’s past from its origins in prehistory to the end of the Meiji Era in 1912 and will provide a chronological overview of select political, social, economic, and cultural developments taking place in the archipelago. Themes of focus include state formation, the development of the ritsuryō system, the rise of the warrior class, the development and rule of the Tokugawa Shogunate, and Japan’s transformation from an agrarian state to an industrialized Western-style empire in the late 19th century. Primary sources will be used to develop a range of historical skills; students will learn how to critically assess these documents in context and to understand the nature and foundations of historians’ arguments and interpretations. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
