HIS 323 - Africa in Stories: History, Literature and Film

Three Credits
Fall Semester

Africa is the site of rich intellectual and cultural diversity. It is the site of fundamental traditions and turning points in the larger story of humanity. African histories have been narrated in diverse ways by outsiders and by Africans themselves. Each story comes from a religious, political and intellectual vantage point. In this course, we will explore and critically examine the ways in which these stories have both expressed and shaped history.

Note: Considered a World History.

          Thematic Approaches: Global Connections; Ideas, Values, Beliefs; Culture, Class, Society; Crisis and Conflict
