Description: The goal of this graduate seminar is to serve as an introduction to the complex historiography of Eastern Europe. Eastern Europe in the context of this course is understood as East-Central Europe and Southeastern Europe (the Balkans). Russia, given that it has a hefty presence in the department curriculum, is not included, although it is considered to be a part of Eastern Europe. We will explore mostly English-language historiography but will try to inform each other about work done in the region. Different approaches (socio-economic, political, cultural and intellectual history, the Annales paradigm, anthropology, political science, microhistory, etc.) as well as central themes (modernity, modernization, economic and social structure, nationalism, socialism, war, violence, representation) will be covered. The format of the course will consist of class discussions on readings, book reviews and a final historiographical research paper. Restriction(s): Restricted to Graduate - Urbana-Champaign.
