Our focus will be on slavery in the Anglophone Atlantic, but students will have the opportunity to discuss historical work on slavery in Iberian and French Atlantic contexts. Students will be responsible for completing all assigned reading prior to class and are expected to participate in class discussions. Students will learn about major historiographical and pedagogical debates in the field including, but not limited to agency among the enslaved, the concept of “social death,” the economics of slavery, paternalism, and accommodation and resistance, race and gender. Assignments include book reviews, a historiography essay, and an end of term assignment (TBD). Finally, students will gain experience in effectively writing about the history of slavery in the academy and beyond. Restriction(s): Restricted to Graduate - Urbana-Champaign.
