Instructor: Feldstein
Location: Canvas
Format: Online
Credits: 3
COURSE DESCRIPTION:

This graduate seminar considers scholarship and primary sources that engage with transnational cultural history in the decades since World War II. How have scholars made sense of the transnational flow of cultural commodities, and related questions about politics, production, consumption, reception, and desires? How can a transnational approach to culture shape (or reshape) scholarly understandings of US history, domestic activism, migration, and more? How can a cultural approach to transnational history shape (or reshape) scholarly understandings of diplomatic and political history, space and place, encounters, and power dynamics that are not anchored in a specific nation state? And how can a transnational focus inform how we analyze primary sources—from written texts to film, photographs, and music?

Important note: For students who have taken an earlier version of this (or related) courses, the readings for this summer course will be different. If you are interested in these themes and would like to pursue them further, you are welcome to take this class.
