Morrissey College of Arts & Sciences
The Ottoman Empire (1299-1922) connected West Asia, North Africa, and parts of Europe, and was of the largest and longest lasting empires in world history. We will study the history of the Ottoman polity and its multi-religious and multi-ethnic society by taking the Ottoman History Podcast as our main textbook. Students will learn the principles of storytelling and podcasting and will produce a podcast episode in lieu of a final exam.
