Extractions: Topic: history of the American west A portion of the above section reserved for majors Above section open to undergraduates only This is a course about history, mythology, and the ways in which various groups have made sense of their lives in the natural environment of the West. Close attention will be paid to American Indians and their conflicts with European colonizers, the "discovery" and exploration of the West, and the struggles between the different racial, ethnic, and religious groups who have occupied the West over time. Through diaries, documentaries, and other personal accounts, students will receive a first-hand look at the experiences of women and men on the Overland Trail, Chinese railroad laborers., Mexican Americans, and other residents of the West. In addition, students will write a historical research paper, using these first-hand accounts, on a person or group of their choice. Texts: Richard White, "It's Your Misfortune and None of My Own": A History of the American West; Albert Hurtado, Intimate Frontiers: Sex, Gender, and Culture in Old California (Histories of the American Frontier).; Lillian Schlissel, Women's Diaries of the Westward Journey. A Course Reader will also be available for purchase. These documents and articles will also be available on reserve at the Main Library. Grades: There are two required tests in this course, a midterm and a final exam. Each exam is worth 35% of your final grade. In addition, you will be required to write a reaction paper to the Eiteljorg Museum, worth 10% of the course, and a longer research paper, worth 20% of your final course grade. Paper Assignments: Students will be required to write a two-page reaction paper to the Eiteljorg Museum and the ways in which it presents and defines the West. This paper will be worth 10% of the course grade. The second paper, worth 20% of the course grade, is a research paper that will allow students to explore a topic that they would like to learn more about. For example, students interested in women on the Overland Trail would be asked to write a 12-15 page essay, combining primary sources (such as women's diaries) and a minimum of two scholarly monographs.

Extractions: cynthia.cumfer@reed.edu COURSE DESCRIPTION Frontier and western historians have revitalized the field of western history in recent years as they seek to answer the question "What is the west?" "Place" historians view the west as a region that is the meeting ground of multiple cultures. "Process" western historians envision the west as a changing frontier that is the site of the spread of American civilization or of expansionism. We will analyze and critically evaluate both paradigms by engaging readings that conceptualize the west as a multicultural region of men and women and as a gateway for U.S. expansionism, governmental control, and capitalism or as an environmental region. We will also explore the construction of historical memory and interrogate the mythologies that Americans have fashioned about the 19 th century west.

Extractions: 1997-98 University Bulletin Entry for: Non-Western and Comparative Studies S = Objectives The non-Western and comparative studies requirement encourages students to explore through various disciplines cultures beyond the Western tradition. The common goal of courses in the program is to acquaint students with worldviews, indigenous intellectual traditions, and social institutions that have developed largely outside the traditions of European society and its North American transplants. By examining some particular culture, society, or region of the non-Western world (such as those of Africa, Asia, the Middle East, Latin America, and Oceania) or by systematically comparing a range of values and institutions across cultural boundaries, students are expected to broaden their understanding of human achievements and potentialities beyond their own heritage. The program includes the comparative analysis of cultures and their interactions and draws attention to the intellectual problems inherent in the study of cultural systems other than one's own.
