HIST 160 - Screening American History

Semester Hours: 3
Periodically
Through the medium of the popular film, this course provides viewpoints into the social and cultural history of the United States. The images, thematic concerns and ideological presuppositions of selected American films (1890’s to present) are examined for evidence of continuity and change in social and cultural attitudes. Students should expect to commit some time beyond the scheduled class hours in order to view some of the longer films that are shown. Class meets twice a week; each class period lasting 120 minutes.
