＜概要/Course Content Summary＞
Historiography and Historical Methodology: Historiography and Historical Methodology is a seminar-style course that focuses on the way historians "do" history. This course gives an overview on how historians have written history and interpreted the past through the ages, and deals with history as a contemporary academic subject. Historiography and Historical Methodology will provide a foundation for later courses of the ILA curriculum.
＜到達目標/Goals,Aims＞
The objective of this class is to introduce students to the academic language of history, historiographical approaches, and concepts and ideas that have influenced the writing of history. By the end of this course, students will have an understanding of basic historical terminology, methodology and sources, and have an insight into the different schools of thought to which historians belong. This course is designed to improve critical thinking, reading, and presentation skills.
