HIST 255 - Writing Medieval History


From cuneiform on clay tablets to Latin script on animal skins, from moveable type on paper to words on a computer screen, writing is central to history. This course explores how people wrote in the past and how we write about them today. We will focus on topics and periods in medieval European history (c. 400s–c. 1400s CE) to practice reading and writing in the discipline and also genre of history.
