Description of Course Elements |
Filmmakers have mined historical events for inspiration, developed deeper insight into those specific time periods, and examined the personal stories present in all historical causation. The goal of these assignments is to assess the historical accuracy of a some of theses movies, how these films compare with the primary source documents we examine in class, and the material presented in the textbook. For each of the 3 parts of the semester, you will have to select a movie from the list provided and record a 5-8 minute video review which will be posted on the relevant discussion board.
Your review should contain the following analysis:
- A brief summation of the movie (no longer than one paragraph in length)
- How historically accurate was the plot (did these events actually take place as presented in the movie)? and characters (were they based on real people, or were they composites of multiple individuals)?
- How do the events found in the movie reinforce or disregard themes found in the course lectures, the textbook, and the in-class primary source documents (point to specific examples to support your argument)?
- Discuss how the movie portrayed at least one of the following: 1) Government (who wielded power Who was powerless?) 2) Social Class (Who had access to wealth and who didn't? How did that affect their lives?), 3) Gender (How were men, women, sexuality, and the family portrayed?); or 4) Culture (How was the encounter between different nations, religions, races, or ethnicities portrayed? Were any of these groups portrayed as superior or inferior?)
I do not expect you to know all of the relevant historical nuances of a movie, therefore you will have to consult outside sources and resources in order to complete this assignment. You need to have at least three sources, not including the movie itself. Make sure to list the sources alongside your video review on the discussion board. Try to keep you speak as natural and conversational as possible. To not just read robotically off of a written script. Do not plagiarize or use A.I. to generate your review.

1) Since this is a world history class, I would like your focus to extend beyond the history of the United States. This means no topic which solely deal with US history. You can, however, have a topic which ends up comparing US history with the history of some other region-- for example you could work on a topic which highlights the parallels between segregation in the US South with the Apartheid system in South Africa.
2) You should investigate a topic which largely falls sometime between the years 1500 and 2000. The period before 1500 is beyond the scope of the class, and the period after 2000 is too modern for us to have an appropriately historical perspective on. Theres perhaps a bit of wiggle room with these dates, but the bulk of your focus should be somewhere within this span of time.
3) There needs to be a sufficient body of written primary source documents in a language which you are able to read. Documents written by people who lived during the period you are researching and who personally experienced the events which you are investigating are indispensable to any work of historical scholarship. Unfortunately sometimes there are very interesting topic ideas for which the sources simply arent available. It is up to you to make sure early on in your research process that you will be able to find the minimum of 5 written primary source documents necessary for this project. Please see below for a list online primary source collections which can be a convenient starting point for your preliminary investigations.
1) What sort of topic do you want to research this semester? You should be as specific as possible about the particular time frame and/or geographic region. (Sometimes it can be helpful to phrase your topic in terms of a particular research question. For example How did the Haitian Revolution of the 1790s change life for former slaves? Why did the samurai class in Japan abandon its traditional privileges during the Meiji Restoration? or How successful was the gay liberation movement of the 1960s in securing rights for the LGBTQ community in Britain, Germany, and the USA?)
2) Why do you find this topic interesting? In what ways do you anticipate that your research will be relevant to things that you care about in your own life?
3) Which of the project formats have you chosen?
4) What sorts of primary sources do you expect to use? Have done any preliminary checking to see what sorts of sources are available? If so, where? (Remember, primary sources are documents written by people who lived during the period you are researching and who personally experienced the events which you are investigating. So for example, are there letters or memoirs written by people who were involved in the events? Relevant laws from the time period in question? Interviews of people who lived through the events?)
For primary sources, you might consult the following resources (some of these sites also contain secondary sources as well):
- The Avalon Project: Documents in Law, History, and Diplomacy.
- Cambridge Digital Library.
- Hanover Historical Texts Collection.
- Finding World History Sources.
- The Women's Library at LSC.
- The Modern History Sourcebook.
- The African History Sourcebook.
- The East Asian History Sourcebook.
- The Indian History Sourcebook.
- The Islamic History Sourcebook.
- The Jewish History Sourcebook.
- The Women's History Sourcebook.
- The Victorian Web.
- Women in World History
- German History in Documents and Images.
- Marxists Internet Library.
- Asia For Educators (Primary Sources on China, Japan, Korea, South Asia, and South East Asia)
- 17 Moments in Soviet History.
1) A link to where your project video or website is publicly viewable.
2) The script or text for your project so it can be checked for plagiarism and A.I. use.
Part 1) Time Line (5 Paragraphs): Provide a Time Line which lists in chronological order what you think are the five most important events in the history of the world from 1500-1900. ALL OF YOUR EXAMPLES MUST BE EVENTS OR DEVELOPMENTS WE DISCUSSED IN CLASS! No more than three of your examples should be drawn from European or United States history. Each item on your Time Line should be a paragraph long and should contain the following information:
- What happened.
- When it happened (approximate dates are okay).
- Why it happened.
- The major Consequences of the event.
- How is this event significant or important?
Part 2) Primary Source Analyses: You will be given the titles of two primary sources which you have read during the first half of the semester (See the exam description in Canvas for the specific sources), and asked to briefly discuss the following elements:
- The identity and point of view of the author.
- The historical context of the document (what circumstances influenced the author?).
- The basic contents of the document.
- What does the document tell us about the specific time and place it was written?
Part 1) Time Line: Provide a Time Line which lists in chronological order what you think are the five most important events in the history of the world after 1900. ALL OF YOUR EXAMPLES MUST BE EVENTS OR DEVELOPMENTS WE DISCUSSED IN CLASS! No more than three of your examples should be drawn from European or United States history. Each item on your Time Line should be a paragraph long and should contain the following information:
- What happened.
- When it happened (approximate dates are okay).
- Why it happened.
- The major Consequences of the event.
- How is this event significant or important?
