\"Detail<\/a><\/div>\n
\n

This quarter centers on various forms of resistance to empire. We will challenge received ideas about conquest through an examination of the Inca empire and Spanish colonization of Peru; reflect on how revisions of canonical texts, such as Shakespeare\u2019s\u00a0The Tempest<\/em>, destabilize the power structures that sustain empire; and analyze the responses of Indian anti-colonialists to the British Raj. We will explore how empires and their ruins structure the way we think about conquest, colonization, mastery, oppression, rebellion, and revolution by examining written texts, cultural artifacts, images, and film.<\/p>\n

Your academic writing last quarter focused on formal elements of writing and argumentation: making arguable claims, choosing persuasive evidence, writing strong warrants, developing logical transitions, and composing rhetorically effective introductions and conclusions. This quarter, you will perfect those abilities while learning how to evaluate and integrate secondary sources.<\/p>\n

Note: Students who want to begin Humanities Core in the winter can do so as long as they have satisfied the UC Entry Level Writing Requirement. After completing the winter and spring quarters, students will have met the lower division writing requirement as long as they have a grade of C or better in the writing component. Completion of the lecture component over two quarters with grades of D- or better will fulfill two Arts and Humanities (Category IV) of the GE requirements. (See details<\/a>.)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
