Fulfills the LAMA requirement for History Majors and Minors
In this course, we will utilize the concept of gender as an analytical tool within the history of empires. We will cover gender theory, the construction of gender identity (male and female), sexuality, power, politics, and culture. To understand how gender functioned within empire, we will undertake a comparative analysis of two of the greatest empires in the world--the Ottoman Empire and the British Empire. We will investigate the ways that race, religion, and class shape women's and gender imperial history.
