New and Topical Course Descriptions
HIEA 144. Topics in East Asian History: Pre-Modern Korean History
This course will examine the evolution of Korean culture and society within the context of political, cultural, and institutional history, from the late thirteenth century through late nineteenth century when Chosǒn opened its ports after signing a treaty with Japan and launched a series of reforms as facing pressure from foreign countries. Major themes of the course will be how the dynastic transition between Koryŏ and Chosŏn is to be understood; how Chosŏn managed to maintain its sovereignty while experiencing a series of foreign invasions, and how certain social circumstances such as introduction of new thoughts through Qing China had influence on the development of Chosŏn dynasty until late nineteenth century.
HILA 162. Topics in Latin American History: Aztecs and Mayas After the Conquest
This class considers the histories of native peoples (commonly known as "Aztecs" and "Mayas") of Mexico and Guatemala from the Spanish invasion to the present (c. 1492 - 2017). The course will examine how indigenous peoples and practices persisted during the Spanish American colonial period and the challenges native peoples have had since Independence to secure their lands and rights.
