History Major Standing. The omnipresence of Google Maps in our lives has homogenized the way we think about space, or at least the way we find places in space. This course will look at how past societies visualized space and, particularly, what geographical space can tell us about power structures. Through a number of case studies from around the world, we will explore how historians incorporate geographical space to historical analysis, the sources they use, and the methodological questions they raise. After examining case students from the last two centuries, students will produce a research paper on a topic of their choice.
