Wednesday, Nov. 18
I have posted in the readings section a guideline for writing the critique of your classmate’s paper. Remember, the critique only needs to be a few paragraphs long and should be written with the idea of helping your classmate improve her/his paper.
Tuesday, Nov. 11
Gienapp article now is now posted on the readings page. Let me know if legibility is a problem.
Monday, October 19
I’ve posted a new version of the Newman article. It’s bigger, so slower to load, but it should be more legible.
Tuesday, October 6
I’ve fixed the link to the Newman article. The Hunter article, however, will need to be rescanned. Unfortunately, since the History Department is being relocated this week, I won’t be able to do that. So please focus your attention on Newman and the articles from last week in the Perman book (Chapter 2). See you Wednesday.
Readings for Sept. 14-18
Next week we will discuss readings from the Perman book (The Coming of the Civil War), see syllabus.
I would like to discuss these readings on different days so we have time to do them justice. So please read them according to this schedule:
Monday: Fox-Genevese & Genevose
Wednesday: Moore
Friday: Wright
