HS319 History of New England
This course explores the regional history of New England from the early modern era (1600s) through the twenty-first century. We will examine Native American history and culture, the Pilgrim and Puritan migrations, the role of New England in the American Revolution, industrialization in the nineteenth century, deindustrialization, and the modern evolution of the region. We will strive to connect the local with the regional and the regional with national and international events and developments. The course will consider issues of religion, race, class, gender, economics, and politics to explore the dynamics of New England's variegated past.
